Property Description

Great Opportunity in Lexington Park! Welcome to this 3-bedroom, 1.5-bath corner twin with wonderful curb appeal and beautifully maintained landscaping. Step inside to a spacious living room with wall-to-wall carpet and surround windows that flood the space with natural sunlight. Beneath the carpets, you'll find hardwood floors throughout, ready to be revealed and refinished to your taste. A formal dining room and eat-in kitchen provide the perfect setting for family dinners or holiday gatherings. Upstairs offers three generously sized bedrooms with ample closet space, wall-to-wall carpet (with hardwood underneath), a ceramic tile hall bath, and a roomy hallway. The unfinished basement holds great potential with your personal touch, it could easily be transformed into extra living space, a recreation room, or a home office, complete with a powder room and separate laundry area. Outside, enjoy the convenience of a 1-car garage and private driveway parking. The property is ideally located near major roadways, shopping, schools, and public transportation. This home has great bones and is priced accordingly. With a little sweat equity, it has the potential to become a truly special property.
