Property Description
Ask about the Wells Fargo $10,000 grant for a buyer - an amazing program that gives 10k towards closing costs! This thoughtfully designed and beautifully maintained semi-detached townhome offers incredibly stylish living space, fantastic outdoor areas and off-street parking! Spanning 1,350 sq ft, this inviting home features two spacious bedrooms and a renovated bathroom upstairs and another beautiful bath + lower level finished room that doubles as great guest quarters, office or hangout space. Upon entering, you are greeted by gleaming hardwood floors and large picture windows, with light streaming in through the southern and western exposures. The chic eat-in kitchen and dining area has been renovated with stainless appliances, granite counters and lots of cabinetry plus cozy bench seating and modern chandelier to ease conversation and set the scene during dinner-prep - perfect for visiting friends and guests while you cook away! For the grillers-at-heart, spill out onto the landscaped back porch and patio - the most lovely escape on a balmy evening. Additional outdoor spaces, including a fenced front yard and back parking pad add to the extras this home provides! Central air conditioning and gas heat ensure year-round comfort. Just out the front door, Wal-Mart is only a few blocks away, Aldi is just 1/2 mile and the Ft. Totten metro is just a bit more (0.8 miles). The library, rec center and playground are only 2-3 blocks away and La Coop coffee and all that Kennedy St has to offer is about a mile. Downtown Takoma Park and all it has to offer is just a bit more. This is one not to miss!!
