* * Offer Deadline has been set for Monday 6/5 at 7pm * * Gorgeous 3bd/2.5ba renovated and expanded Colonial in beautiful Montgomery Hills! Less than 1 mile to Metro with easy access to Silver Spring, Bethesda, or DC! Lovingly updated and cared for by its owner of 10 years, this home is bright, cheery, and oozes character inside and out. The spacious main level features a large living room with wood burning fireplace and custom built-ins, a spacious dining room that can easily seat 8-10, and a beautifully finished sunroom that the current owners use as a main level kids' space/mud room but would make a great main level office space as well. The updated kitchen has been opened to the dining room, creating sight lines throughout the main level, and features updated wood cabinetry, stainless steel appliances, a super-cool herringbone tile floor, granite, and a peninsula that acts as an island between the kitchen dining room. The previous owners added a small addition to the rear of the house, which added a full bathroom on the main level and expanded walk-in closet spaces on the second level. A massive bonus for a 1940s Colonial, which originally didn't have a main-level bath! Upstairs you will find a spacious primary bedroom with wood floors, a large closet, and great views of the beautiful yard. The two secondary bedrooms also feature hardwoods and offer expanded closet space due to the expansion added to the home's rear. The upstairs hall bath is well-sized and updated, with custom marble tile work throughout. The finished lower level is spacious with good ceiling height and features engineered wood flooring, additional closet space, and recessed lighting throughout. There is a sizable laundry /storage space to the rear of the basement with an additional updated half bath. The exterior of this home feels incredibly special. The beautiful natural landscaping and fully fenced yard space give it a peaceful English countryside vibe. The yard comes complete with two apple trees and a blueberry bush! At the rear of the house is a brick patio already outfitted with twinkle lights and perfect for your next BBQ. The brick patio extends around the home's rear to the side, where you will find a spacious off-street parking pad for two cars and a large garden shed. The parking pad and main entrance to the home is on Birch St, not Seminary. This home has been well taken care of and updated by the current owners. Upgrades include newer high-end Simonton windows throughout, a new hot water heater, an upgraded electrical panel, updated appliances, and more! Don't miss this one! This is a unique opportunity at this price point!
