Incredibly charming and well-located at just under a mile to Forest Glen Metro, this home is right-sized for people who don't need or want a lot of square footage, but want well thought out and convenient living space and great outdoor space. All on one level, this home is beautifully updated with a gorgeous, remodeled and open kitchen featuring granite counters with a breakfast bar and gas cooking. With gorgeous hardwoods throughout, fresh paint, an updated bathroom and new light fixtures, this home is move-in ready. The furnace & AC were replaced in 2020. Enjoy the patio area and firepit. The fully fenced backyard is generous -- a wonderful space for play, relaxing after a long day and for allowing furry friends to romp. Plus the ample shed offers additional storage. Quick access to Metro, 495, Sligo Creek Park, downtown Silver Spring and Kensington and the very close to McKenney Hills Neighborhood Park with lots of trails, ball fields, tennis courts and a great playground, this gem is a rare find!
