Property Description
Fabulous expanded and updated 1923 Craftsman bungalow in Historic North Takoma on a quiet cul-de-sac, just 4 blocks to Metro and a few blocks more to Old Town Takoma Park shops, restaurants, and market. This house combines the best of vintage bungalow charm with modern updates. On an almost 1/4 acre lot, the house sits near the end of the street on a bluff that overlooks an Eastern panorama. If you are an early riser you will see dramatic sunrises daily. Check out the photo I took: what a way to start each day!
Entering from the expansive front porch with custom planter boxes, you will find a very spacious living room with a charming inlay border design in the original oak hardwood floors, built-in library shelves, recessed lights, and a wood burning fireplace with reproduction arts & crafts tile. The dining room features a storage closet for China, a vintage chandelier and arts & crafts windows overlooking the deck. From the dining room continue to your brand new kitchen! 42" shaker cabinets with soft close drawers, brand new stainless appliances, a very pretty tile backsplash, and a built in double pantry combine with two vintage art deco pendant lights to create a warm and functional space.
Off the kitchen is an enclosed sunroom with a cozy wood burning stove, views of the rear yard and a glass door to the deck. Two bedrooms ( one used as an office) and a vintage black and white full bath complete this side of the house. Original medicine cabinet and porcelain sconces work well with the stylish floor tile. The stairway up to the second level is on this side of the house. Adorable original built in cabinets and drawers in the hallway.
Heading over to the other side of the house, beyond the dining room, you'll find a very spacious family room with French doors to the deck and steps down to a lower level office. More built-in shelves line the stairwell, built by the current owner to house his vast antique toaster collection, but would serve just as well for books!
The upper level is comprised of the owners bedroom and bath in one wing and two bedrooms, bath and sitting area in the other wing separated by a skylit hallway. The large owner's bedroom features a vaulted ceiling, expansive views of the yard and his and hers walk-in closets. Skylights illuminate the stairwell up and the connecting hallway. The kid's area comprises two nice sized bedrooms and the sitting (play) area. Ask me about the delightful froggie tiles in the bathroom!
The lower level features a large bright finished flex room with rear outside access: could be kids playroom, family room, or office. Truly a splendid one-of-a kind house, in an unbeatable location, in the popular North Takoma Historic District.
