Storybook Brick Cape in an Idyllic setting surrounded by a beautifully designed and lovingly cared for front and rear landscaped yard (purple magnolia tree that blooms 3x/year, azaleas, hostas, hellebores, heucheras and so much more). Tucked in the heart of the popular Calvert Hills Subdivision, this private and peaceful oasis is just a few blocks to everything you'll want and need. Entrance through the ornate iron gate from the driveway leads you on a stone walkway to the rear yard featuring a flagstone patio, spacious deck with built-in grill and entertaining space, covered porch with ceiling fans and magnetic screens to keep the mosquitos out, and a storage shed within the fully fenced yard. The front entry door welcomes you into the main level featuring a living room with brick fireplace, a family room/den, a bedroom (currently used as an office), a full bath, an open, fully equipped, kitchen with granite counters, breakfast bar and an adjacent breakfast room addition with vaulted ceiling, skylights and board and batten trim. It's truly a room with a view! The upper level features two bedrooms and a hall full bath. The lower level features a generous recreation room (currently used as a guest room), a half bath, the utility area, a draped shelving area maximizing storage space, and a laundry room featuring dog grooming or gardener's shower! Gorgeous hardwood floors on the main and upper levels and replacement windows allow for natural sunlight to permeate the home. CAC and Natural Gas heat keep it comfortable throughout the year. Scenic paths and tree-lined streets provide close proximity to all that the revitalized Route One Corridor has to offer (Whole Foods, Burtons, Denizens, Starbucks, Gold Gym, Riverdale Town Center, Farmer Markets, Riviera Tapas, Banana Blossom Bistro and more! Its location is a commuter's delight as just short blocks away are the College Park Metro Station and the Marc Train, and major transportation routes (495, 95, 295 and 50) as well. The Purple Line is under construction and the University of Maryland offers Big Ten sports, recreational facilities and the Clarice Smith Center for The Performing Arts. The Wells ice rink/pool, College Park Tennis Center and public parks are less than a mile away. The City of College Park offers a grant program that offers $15K and an additional $5K for those that qualify. MASKS AND GLOVES MUST BE WORN AND ARE NOT PROVIDED!
