The modern kitchen features brand-new stainless-steel appliances—including refrigerator, dishwasher, and gas range—along with quartz countertops and plentiful cabinet space. It opens to both the separate dining room and a stunning sunroom with wall-to-wall windows, perfect for entertaining, relaxing, or creating an inspiring home office. From either the kitchen or sunroom, step directly into the newly fenced backyard—ideal for outdoor living and a breeze for pet owners.

The inviting living room boasts a wood-burning fireplace, while the upper level offers three bright bedrooms with pleasant treetop views, cedar closets, and an updated full bath. The spacious lower level includes a generously sized fourth bedroom that accommodates a king-size bed, an office nook, a full bath, a laundry area with brand-new washer and dryer, and direct access to the attached garage.

Additional improvements include refinished hardwood floors, new luxury vinyl plank flooring, fresh paint, updated lighting, upgraded window treatments, and a newly installed fence—truly making this home move-in ready. A one-car garage plus driveway parking for two vehicles adds convenience.

Located just a short stroll or bike ride from the newly completed Metropolitan Branch Trail and only 0.5 miles to Fort Totten Metro, with easy access to Takoma Park shops and restaurants. An excellent opportunity for both primary residents and investors—with no monthly HOA fees.
