Description

The inviting porch entry hints at the charm of this home. The main floor living space is open and light-filled. It has the nice oak floors that are throughout the house with the added feature of a fireplace in the living room. The den, off the dining area, also has a fireplace and that pleasant, comfortable feel that suggests you'll spend a lot of time there. The nicely renovated kitchen is lovely! (Other significant updating that is not as evident as the kitchen is a new roof and an electrical heavy-up.)...The inviting porch entry hints at the charm of this home. The main floor living space is open and light-filled. It has the nice oak floors that are throughout the house with the added feature of a fireplace in the living room. The den, off the dining area, also has a fireplace and that pleasant, comfortable feel that suggests you'll spend a lot of time there. The nicely renovated kitchen is lovely! (Other significant updating that is not as evident as the kitchen is a new roof and an electrical heavy-up.) There are two bedrooms on the main level. A doorway off one of them leads to a huge, unfinished upstairs that could be great additional space--primary bedroom suite, guest area, offices, craft area--whatever you'd like! "Great potential" is an understatement. The downstairs has an attractive second full bath, a third bedroom, workroom and laundry area, and a Rec' room with a fireplace and the warmth of paneled walls. (That's three total fireplaces in the house.) There is outside access from this level, From here or a few steps out the kitchen door, a garden pathway, leads to the detached garage. The location in the Calvert Hills section of College Park is excellent! Heading north, it offers an easy walk/bike ride to College Park Metro, UMD, Trader Joe's, or south to the Whole Foods complex (six minutes to Starbucks) and the Arts District of Hyattsville. So much to like!
