Dreamy, updated bungalow with a fantastic backyard and parking in prime Takoma Park location close to shops and restaurants! Stepping in from the charming front porch you are greeted by the home's sunny and open living space including a custom renovated kitchen that features stainless steel appliances and a butcher-block center island, a dining area with neighborhood views through updated windows, and a lovely living room. Three bedrooms and one full bathroom complete the main level. The updated lower level then offers an additional family room/rec room, a large guest room or media room, a generous entry and mudroom area that steps out to the home's driveway, the second full bathroom, laundry, and multiple storage closets. Outside you can enjoy the back deck; the large, flat, fenced backyard; the elevated front porch; and parking in the driveway. Thoughtful recent improvements to the house include a new HVAC system in 2023, newer windows at the front of the house, and the fantastic kitchen renovation. And all of this is just minutes to Main Street Takoma with its incredible dining options, shopping, local coffee shops, green spaces, bookstores, and the Takoma Metro! Truly an exceptional location in close-in Takoma Park. Welcome home!
