An impressive three-story addition makes everyday living easy and entertaining a dream. Rich with charm and full of flexibility, this home blends classic character with modern convenience in all the right ways.

Inside, inviting living spaces, gracious flow, and a versatile, open layout offer both comfort and function. Original details bring warmth and soul, while thoughtful updates behind the scenes provide peace of mind.

The kitchen is ready for real life, anchored by a JennAir range with standout features including a built-in air fryer. Smart touches like Hunter Douglas electric blinds add a little everyday luxury. Radiator heat brings cozy charm throughout much of the home, with multiple thermostat zones for tailored comfort, while high-efficiency central AC (2024) serves the entire house.

The lower level offers exceptional flexibility, whether you need an in-law suite, private office with its own entrance, a spacious family room, or a play space with room to spread out.

Outside, the property offers a rare and delightful surprise: a trio of paw paw trees producing tropical-tasting fruit in the fall, like a hidden backyard bonus. And the location is just as special, with steps to the Sligo Creek trail and close to all the best of Silver Spring living, including the future Purple Line, a 1-mile walk to Metro, and Whole Foods.

Beautifully maintained and full of heart, 518 Ashford Road offers that rare mix of character, functionality, meaningful updates, and an unbeatable location in one of Silver Spring’s most cherished neighborhoods.
