Welcome to this recently RENOVATED and inviting bungalow tucked away in the trees! As you approach the front door, the nicely landscaped and elevated front yard provides a sweeping view of the neighborhood. Once inside, the updated kitchen and open floor plan create a cozy atmosphere flooded with natural light. There are also two large and bright bedrooms and a full bathroom upstairs. An egress window is being added to the basement bedroom and will be completed in early October. The open and stylish basement includes a bedroom, an updated bathroom, a storage/laundry area, and a recreation area large enough to fit an entertainment space or a home gym. With the proper licensure, the basement can easily be closed off and used as a RENTAL UNIT. The backyard is large and low maintenance. It’s rare to get so much nature and charm so close to Downtown Silver Spring. The Sligo Creek Trail is a short walk from the house. The future owner is perfectly positioned to take advantage of all Downtown Silver Spring has to offer. Quick commute into DC as well.
