First open house this Sunday 3/26 from 2-4 PM! You'll feel like you've landed in California upon entering this rare “Pasadena” model from the 1922 Aladdin kit homes. This historic resource has been lovingly maintained and restored. Numerous updates and renovations to include a new roof in 2017, new central air in 2017, a wood burning stove, refinished hardware floors, substantial hardscaping and fencing, a new hot water heater, and the kitchen with new stainless steel appliances, countertops, fixtures, and cabinets . The house is flooded with natural sunlight and features a magical multi-purpose sunroom. The primary bedroom addition features a walk-in closet and dressing area, an en-suite bathroom, stunning vaulted ceilings, dramatic oversized windows, and a door to the rear deck. There are two additional bedrooms and another full bathroom with a clawfoot tub. There is parking for at least three cars and with a corner lot that is almost 10,000 SF, you'll find endless space to enjoy the outdoors with a private front yard, backyard, and deck for outdoor dining. Walk just under half a mile and you're in vibrant Main Street Takoma, a designated Maryland main street. You'll find all sorts of locally owned and small businesses such as restaurants, galleries, bars, the farmer's market, florists, music venues, an ice cream shop, a butcher, and so much more. An easy walk to metro, Takoma Park Coop, Sligo Creek Trail, and Spring Park is just one block away. All you could want!
