Property Description
UNDER CONTRACT. OPEN HOUSE CANCELLED. Tucked along one of Brightwood's most beloved tree-lined streets, this stunning end-unit rowhouse effortlessly blends classic architectural charm with a thoughtfully curated modern interior. Completely reimagined in 2014 and meticulously maintained by its current owners, this home is move-in ready and awaiting its next chapter. A welcoming covered porch sets the tone before you step across the threshold into warm hardwood floors and a gracious, light-filled main level. Custom plantation shutters dress the windows throughout, lending the space a polished, tailored quality from the moment you enter. The generous living room flows naturally into a separate dining room making entertaining effortless. The rear of the home is where the magic happens. The expansive kitchen is the true heart of the house: an abundance of custom cabinetry, sweeping marble countertops, stainless steel appliances, a wine refrigerator, and a wall of windows that frame the stone patio and deep, verdant yard beyond. A conveniently located powder room sits just off the kitchen. A sun-drenched skylight welcomes you to the upper level, where the beautiful hardwood floors continue throughout. The primary suite is a true retreat: soaring ceilings, double custom closets, and a spa-inspired ensuite with Grohe fixtures, double sinks, a walk-in tiled shower, and its own skylight that bathes the room in natural light. Two additional generously sized bedrooms, each with custom closets, and a full hall bathroom, along a discreetly located stackable washer and dryer, complete this level. The fully tiled lower level offers tremendous versatility - a large recreation room with wet bar and refrigerator, a fourth bedroom, and a full bathroom. A rear exit leads directly to the yard and the expansive stone patio, making this an ideal space for entertaining or hosting guests in complete privacy. Two secure off-street parking spaces - equipped with an EV charger - add a layer of everyday ease. The location is simply unbeatable. Steps from tree-lined sidewalks, local parks, and dog parks, with the Takoma Aquatic Center nearby. Downtown Takoma's beloved spots - Donut Run, Lost Sock Roasters and numerous restaurants - are a short stroll away, as is the Takoma Metro station (Red Line). La Coop Coffee Shop is right around the corner, and quick access to the Walter Reed development puts Whole Foods and June Berry Garage within easy reach.
