Tucked beside Lake Frank and just minutes from Lake Needwood and Rock Creek Regional Park, this stunning Cape Cod offers three beautifully wooded acres of privacy without sacrificing a single convenience. It's a rare find — a true nature lover's retreat with easy access to Metro, MARC Rail, and the ICC. Inside, vaulted ceilings give the living room an open, airy feel that flows naturally into the family room and kitchen, creating a layout ideal for both relaxed evenings and effortless entertaining. A sun-drenched all-seasons sunroom off the kitchen opens onto a back deck complete with a hot tub, where towering trees and the sounds of nature greet you in every season. Two bedrooms and two full baths round out the main level. Upstairs, a generous loft and bonus room provide the kind of flexible space that adapts to whatever you need — a home office, guest suite, or playroom. Fresh paint and new carpet in the loft make this home move-in ready! Car enthusiasts and hobbyists will love the dual-garage setup: an attached two-car garage accessible from the kitchen, plus a second garage off the family room featuring a commercial lift. Practical peace of mind comes courtesy of a five-year-old roof and newly installed Gutter Helmet gutters. Whether you spend your weekends hiking, kayaking, or simply unwinding in the hot tub as the sun filters through the trees, this home delivers the best of both worlds — a serene, wooded sanctuary with the city right at your doorstep.

The location of this home is really special, backing to parkland and Lake Frank,and only a few miles from Shady Grove Metro. Proximity comes with trade-offs; the house is located on a double yellow line Road and the parking lot for Lakeside Trail...
is visible from the backyard with no leaves on the trees. The layout is interesting with the kitchen being larger than expected, and also opened to two separate living spaces which lends itself to entertaining. There are two small bedrooms on the main level along with two full bass with unusual layouts. There’s a large room in the loft, currently being used as a bedroom. Two large garages on either side of the home give lots of possibilities.
