Like No Other in Takoma Park — Where Timeless Charm Meets Modern Luxury Prepare to be dazzled by this one-of-a-kind craftsman home that perfectly blends the character of Takoma Park with the elevated experience of new construction. Nestled on a tree-lined street just blocks from local favorites like the Co-Op, Takoma Bev Co, Cielo Rojo, the Farmer’s Market, and more — this stunning property offers an unbeatable combination of space, style, and location. Completely reimagined from the ground up, this expansive home features all-new systems: electrical, plumbing, HVAC, framing, and roof — it’s all brand new. A thoughtful floor plan enhances the original architecture with a seamless layout and exceptional flexibility. Flooded with natural light, the main level welcomes you with a spacious living room anchored by a cozy electric fireplace, a designer kitchen with quartz countertops, 42” soft-close cabinets, full backsplash, tailored hood range, and premium stainless steel appliances. Entertain with ease thanks to a center island, step-in shelved pantry, and a built-in beverage bar adjacent in the large family room that opens to a sundeck—each overlooking a large, flat, fully fenced backyard. The rare first-floor full bath and main-level bedroom/office offer comfort and convenience for guests or multi-generational living. Upstairs, you’ll find four bedrooms and three full bathrooms, including a luxurious primary suite featuring a vaulted ceiling, spacious walk-in closet, and spa-like bath with double vanities and custom tile. A second ensuite bedroom and a Jack-and-Jill bath between the third and fourth bedrooms add further flexibility. You’ll also love the upper-level laundry room for everyday ease. The finished lower level includes a generous guest suite with full bath, a built-in bar/kitchenette, rec room, and private exterior access—ideal for an in-law apartment, au pair, or potential rental income. Additional highlights include a bright home office with walls of windows, a custom mudroom with built-in shelving, and ample storage throughout. Situated just 1.4 miles from the Red Line Metro and minutes to downtown Silver Spring, Sligo Creek Park, playgrounds, dog parks, basketball and tennis courts, and trails, this home is at the heart of everything that makes Takoma Park so beloved. Enjoy year-round community events like Folk Festivals, Art-Hop, gardening gatherings, and the charming Pajamarama tradition. You’re also moments from Whole Foods, Target, and the upcoming Purple Line transit connection. This is more than just a house — it’s a vibrant lifestyle in one of the DC area’s most eclectic and welcoming neighborhoods. Don’t miss your chance to make this exceptional home your own.
