Property Description

Welcome to 438 Ethan Allen Ave - a spacious, light-filled, and wonderfully livable 2-story home with a full finished basement in the heart of Takoma Park. With 3,276 sq ft of thoughtfully designed space and a major addition completed in 2015, this 4-bedroom, 3.5-bath home offers room to spread out, space to come together, and a layout that flexes beautifully for today's work-from-home and multi-generational lifestyles. The main level features 2,184 finished square feet above grade and an open, airy floor plan made for modern living. The living room centers around a direct-vented gas fireplace, while the oversized kitchen with its own fireplace makes meal prep feel more like a vibe. Hosting a dinner party? The flow from the kitchen and dining areas right out to a 390 sq ft deck makes entertaining a breeze.

Downstairs, the finished basement with private entrance includes a full bathroom, bedroom, and kitchenette - ideal for guests, in-laws, a home office, or even a rentable suite. The 208 sq ft front porch is perfect for morning coffee or evening chats with neighbors, and the private driveway means no circling the block after work. The home is updated with modern systems and layout enhancements thanks to the 2015 addition, which brought both increased square footage and effortless functionality. Best of all? You're just steps from the Takoma Park Co-op, local parks, Sligo Creek trails, and all your neighborhood favorites like Takoma BevCo, Soko Butcher, and Cielo Rojo. Whether you're working remotely or catching the Red Line Metro just a mile away, life here is all about ease, access, and community.
