* * * $80,000 Price Improvement * * * Timeless Character and Exceptional Indoor-Outdoor Living Set on a beautifully landscaped property in an established Silver Spring neighborhood, 1907 Rookwood Road pairs classic architectural character with generous living spaces and an unusually versatile floor plan. Three finished gathering spaces on the main level, two fireplaces, a screened porch, an attached two-car garage, and a private, thoughtfully designed backyard create a home equally well suited to everyday living and entertaining. A covered front porch opens to a gracious central foyer, framed by well-proportioned formal rooms and original architectural details. The expansive living room is anchored by a gas fireplace and flows directly into a sun-filled, 22-foot-long sunroom, offering an inviting setting for conversation, reading, or relaxing while enjoying views of the surrounding landscape. The dining room provides an elegant backdrop for gatherings and is enhanced by custom built-ins that add both character and functionality. Nearby, the adjoining den offers a more intimate retreat with a wood-burning fireplace and custom built-ins, while a separate library with its own built-in cabinetry provides an ideal space for working from home, managing household needs, or enjoying a quiet place to read. At the rear of the home, the kitchen connects seamlessly to both the dining room and an inviting breakfast room featuring built-in cabinetry, creating a warm and inviting space for casual meals and everyday living. From there, the home flows effortlessly to the outdoor living areas. Just beyond, a screened porch extends the living space outdoors and provides a welcoming setting for morning coffee, al fresco dining, and summer entertaining. An additional powder room and pantry storage complete the main level. Upstairs, the generously proportioned primary bedroom features an ensuite bath and multiple closets. Two additional bedrooms, each with ample closet space, share a second full bathroom. Pull-down attic access provides convenient supplemental storage. The lower level offers substantial utility and storage space, a laundry area, an additional powder room, and direct access to the attached rear-entry two-car garage. Its open footprint also presents possibilities for future customization, subject to the appropriate approvals. Outside, extensive landscaping creates a private and picturesque setting. The screened porch opens to a patio and a fully enclosed rear yard bordered by low-maintenance privacy fencing, mature plantings, and established trees. A whole-house generator adds an important measure of comfort and preparedness. The location places downtown Silver Spring, Takoma Park, Sligo Creek Park, shopping, dining, and major commuter routes within easy reach. The future 16th Street-Woodside Purple Line station will provide an additional east-west transit connection, linking Bethesda and New Carrollton with connections to Metrorail, MARC, Amtrak, and regional bus service. The Purple Line is currently targeted to begin service in late 2027. 1907 Rookwood Road offers a compelling combination of timeless character, comfortable scale, exceptional indoor-outdoor living, and convenient access to the best of Silver Spring.

North Silver Spring, located between Downtown Silver Spring and Wheaton, is a residential and commuter-friendly Silver Spring neighborhood with leafy side streets and a Metro-linked rhythm. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Georgia Ave–Colesville Rd corridor near Silver Spring Station, where coffee counters, indie eateries, and small storefronts keep sidewalks active. Housing reads as early- to mid-century brick colonials and Cape Cods mixed with garden-style apartments, set on gently rolling blocks. Sligo Creek’s trail network and neighborhood parks shape daily routines with shaded runs and weekend strolls. The Fillmore Silver Spring and AFI Silver Theatre and Cultural Center anchor the local calendar with concerts and repertory film. Downtown’s restaurant rows and civic spaces add a polished, walkable counterpoint to the quieter streets north of the core.
