Description

Sweetest Cape features a pergola covered front porch and a screened-in gazebo in the back. Fabulous location: although the Post Office thinks it is in Silver Spring, 20910, it is actually within the City of Takoma Park boundaries, so TP schools & services. Close to schools, and to both downtown Takoma Park and Silver Spring. Inside you will find a spacious living room that leads to the dining room, and the updated kitchen. The kitchen features new butcher block counters and recent stainless appliances....Sweetest Cape features a pergola covered front porch and a screened-in gazebo in the back. Fabulous location: although the Post Office thinks it is in Silver Spring, 20910, it is actually within the City of Takoma Park boundaries, so TP schools & services. Close to schools, and to both downtown Takoma Park and Silver Spring. Inside you will find a spacious living room that leads to the dining room, and the updated kitchen. The kitchen features new butcher block counters and recent stainless appliances. The backyard features a slate patio, screened in pergola and very pretty landscape and hardscape. Don't miss the smoke tree out front: gorgeous deep purple leaves and huge hazy blooms. There are two bedrooms and a full bath on the main level. Upstairs is a spacious owner's suite with very stylish recent full bath. The lower level is partially finished with luxury grade vinyl tile flooring, track lighting, and the 3rd full bath. Garage access and walkout level door on this level, and plenty of storage space. The garage has room for one car plus storage and has an electric door and a 50 amp 240 volt electric car charger. Driveway for 2 additional cars and there is a curb cut/parking pad in front for easy parking, too. Margaret is a lovely, neighborly one-block long street, very convenient to all that Takoma Park and downtown Silver Spring have to offer!
