Charming Vintage Cottage in an Ideal Location! Fall in love with this delightful vintage cottage that effortlessly blends timeless character with modern versatility. From the welcoming front porch and original hardwood floors to the high ceilings and abundant natural light, every detail radiates warmth and charm. The open-concept kitchen flows seamlessly into the adjacent family room, offering clear sightlines—perfect for everyday living or effortless entertaining. Host gatherings in the spacious living and dining rooms, both brimming with light and personality. And you will especially enjoy relaxing or hosting on the screened porch at least three seasons of the year! The main level features two generously sized bedrooms and a full bathroom. Downstairs, the fully finished basement offers exceptional flexibility. With its own kitchen and private entrance, it’s ideal for use as an Airbnb, in-law or au pair suite, or reimagined as two additional bedrooms plus a home office or nursery. Outside, the fenced sunny rear and side yards provide space for gardening, play, or simply relaxing. And while street parking is easy and abundant, you’ll appreciate the convenience of your own private parking pad which can accommodate 2 vehicles or 4 if parked in tandem. And the fully electrified garden shed located below the screened porch has plenty or room for bikes, garden tools, camping gear, etc. Perfectly positioned on Boundary Avenue—right where Silver Spring meets Takoma Park—you’ll enjoy the best of both communities. Walk to the Takoma Park Metro, local shops, restaurants, and the vibrant Farmers Market.
