Built by Heber Thornton in 1928, this Dutch Colonial was renovated in the early 2000’s, expanding the first floor and second floors and adding a large wrap around porch and patio. The home currently boasts three working fireplaces, a formal dining room with multiple gathering spaces on the first floor for entertaining, including the addition family room that seamlessly extends to the wrap around porch and patio for summer parties. There’s even room for an office on the first level! The second floor renovation created a luxurious 13’ ceiling primary bedroom suite with large walk in closet, fireplace, en suite bath with soaking tub and shower. On the second floor, there are three additional bedrooms, all good sizes with great light and another full bathroom. The attic bonus room is a very large space with lots of attic roof storage - great for a recreation room, a 5th bedroom space, or an office. The basement has lots of storage closets, and is fully finished with a full bath. With so many flex spaces on every floor, this home is a dream for work from home folks, entertainers, and owners who need 4-6 bedroom spaces to meet all their needs.

The house has been meticulously maintained with a one year old roof, two year old hot water heater and three year old HVAC compressor. The rear fence was replaced in 2020, and HVAC, fireplaces, and chimneys have been inspected and repaired as needed every year. Current sellers are avid gardeners, with years-long landscaping efforts in the front and back yards, including new trees & shrubs, and plantings that grace the yard throughout the spring, summer, and fall.

The house is located directly across from Takoma Recreation Center’s picnic grounds, with the splash park, playground, pickleball courts, tennis courts, futsol, basketball courts, and indoor aquatic center just a block away. Convenience is key at this home - just 6 short blocks to the Takoma Metro Station, walking distance to Safeway, the Whole Foods at Walter Reed, Lost Sock Brewery, Donut Run, Takoma Bev Co, Starbucks, Busboys & Poets, Kin Da, and more! Also just a block off of the Metropolitan Branch Trail and dedicated biking lanes at 3rd St NW, and quick trip down North Capitol will get you to downtown DC in 20 minutes!
