Charming brick colonial-style home located on a large corner lot, 5 minutes to downtown Silver Spring. Home features abundant natural light, large sunroom, refinished hardwood floors, recessed lighting, newer windows, 1-car garage & driveway, just to name a few! Enter the home through an enclosed entryway into the freshly painted, light-filled living room with a wood-burning fireplace. There is a formal dining room with direct access to the brand-new kitchen with quartz countertops, new appliances and a newly-built pantry. The large kitchen connects to the bright and airy sunroom to enjoy a peaceful retreat and backyard view. With a door to a covered patio and grassy yard for family and friends, this home is ideal for relaxing and entertaining. Also on the main floor is a large windowed room—with a full bathroom and closet—ready to be used as a spacious home office, bedroom, or in-law suite. Upstairs, there are 3 nice-sized bedrooms (or office option) with hardwood floors and a full bathroom. The finished lower-level features a sizable family room with a separate laundry room. The New Furnace, water heater and A/C are just some of the updates in this home. Commuting is simple—less than a mile to Silver Spring Metro Station and a future Purple Line light rail right outside your front door. Convenience is all around you, living within walking distance to parks, the YMCA, Whole Foods, a farmers market, restaurants, shops, trails, major highways, and so much more!
