The most pronounced feature that puts this home it in a category all on its own is it's highly functional main… Read More level layout that is simply amiss in many nearby properties. Unlike many homes in the immediate market area (where the guest bathroom is often situated in the middle of the living room or kitchen - central to the living and dining areas) on the main level; this home has it's guest half bathroom thoughtfully placed at the rear of the home. It cannot be overstated that this simple modification provides an enhanced sense of comfort and privacy for both the homeowner and their guests that (almost) no reasonable amount of money could rectify. The intelligent design ensures that every square inch of this home is utilized effectively, eliminating any wasted space. Furthermore, the living and entertainment area on the main level offers exceptional versatility in its configuration. Whether your preference is for a cozy TV setup or a welcoming space for reading and board games, this layout accommodates various lifestyles, a refreshing departure from the constraints often found in other mid-century floor plans. Beyond its smart layout, this home features sophisticated modern finishes that are tastefully executed. From the beautiful hardwood floors throughout the main level to the updated flooring on the lower level and upper levels, this home is well done. The main level includes the coveted and very modern open concept living space highlighted by a renovated kitchen, all stainless steel appliances, a newer dishwasher, along with a well-maintained HVAC system and water heater on the lower level. Let's not forget the incredible LOCATION of this home! It's conveniently situated close to numerous eateries, green spaces, playgrounds, community initiatives, nightlife, as well as easy access to transportation. Whether commuting across-town or long distance transportation, you are covered. The home is less than 1 mile (.8 miles) from Takoma Metro, and various bus lines. To put it plainly, this home truly is move-in-ready and will make any buyer a happy homeowner!
