About this home
New price! New photos will be uploaded Saturday. Welcome to 240 Whitmoor Terrace, a charming 1946 Colonial on a quiet street in Silver Spring's sought-after Woodmoor neighborhood, thoughtfully renovated top to bottom while keeping its classic character. Three bedrooms, two full baths, and a finished walkout lower level sit on two deeded parcels totaling 15,760 sq ft (about 0.36 acres), a rare mix of turnkey comfort, privacy, and outdoor space. Step inside to a bright living room, where hand-refinished vintage hardwood floors and a restored wood-burning fireplace—complete with a new chimney cap, liner, and flue, and tested for full functionality—create a warm spot to unwind. Tall replacement windows fill the main level with natural light, complemented by recessed lighting throughout. The living area flows into the fully renovated kitchen, featuring new cabinets, quartz countertops, a tile backsplash, ceramic flooring, an island with a built-in outlet, and brand-new stainless steel appliances. The air-fryer range is also equipped with an existing gas line available for conversion. Upstairs, you will find three bedrooms and a fully renovated bathroom that pairs the beautifully reglazed original tub with a new vanity, toilet, and tiled floor. The renovation extends to major home systems, including full electrical rewiring with a new oversized panel, whole-house PEX plumbing, and hardwired interconnected smoke alarms with battery backup. Additional updates include leveled and reinforced kitchen and bath floors, a new AC system and water heater (2023), a recently inspected architectural shingle roof with approximately 15 years of remaining life, and regraded south and west yards to direct water away from the foundation. Downstairs, the finished walkout lower level serves as a flexible space for a dedicated work-from-home office, home gym, and lounge or play area. Supported by a kitchenette, a new full bath with a walk-in shower, a laundry area with a new washer and dryer, and ample storage, it is also well-suited for hosting overnight guests. Outside, a freshly rebuilt, maintenance-free Trex front deck overlooks newly landscaped grounds with fruit-bearing cherry and crabapple trees, a magnolia, and butterfly and herb gardens. The backyard features a large, level, partially fenced lawn with space to add a patio. Brick steps descend into a private wooded ravine and stream bank, part of the Anacostia River watershed. Nearby Northwest Branch trails lead north into wooded hiking paths and south through parkland to D. C. Woodmoor offers a vibrant community with seasonal events hosted by the Woodmoor Citizens Association, including the Fourth of July parade, Oktoberfest, and the Woodmoorstock music festival. Local schools include Pine Crest Elementary, Eastern Middle, Montgomery Blair High, and St. Bernadette School (buyer to verify school assignment). The property is located steps from the Woodmoor Shopping Center and Pinecrest Park, minutes from downtown Silver Spring, and offers easy commuter access to D. C. Flexible settlement available.
Woodmoor, located between University Boulevard and Colesville Road, is a residential and wooded Four Corners neighborhood with curving streets and mid-century homes. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Four Corners intersection at University Blvd and Colesville Rd, where independent eateries, small storefronts, and steady commuter energy set the tone. Nearby pillars include Quarry House Tavern, the AFI Silver Theatre and Cultural Center, and Denizens Brewing Co. Sidewalks trace rolling terrain and mature tree canopy, with pocket parks and stream-valley greenways shaping daily routines. Architecture leans toward brick ramblers, split-levels, and well-kept colonials on generous lots. A short drive connects to downtown Silver Spring’s arts venues and dining corridors without changing the quiet, leafy feel at home.
