About This Home
Seller offering 1 year home warranty. Spacious, light‑filled 3-bedroom, 1.5-bath Cape Cod in Chillum with an additional quarter bath in the lower level, as well as a sunny wood‑plank sun-room that is ready for your personal touch. This home has several updates, to include sun-room exterior siding (2024), new roof (2024), new upper‑level waterlines (2025), fresh paint throughout, and new LVP flooring in the kitchen, family room, and lower‑level bath. Original hardwoods remain on the main and second levels, with new hardwood in the upper second bedroom. New porcelain flooring in both main and upper baths (2025) and new kitchen countertops. 200-amp service panel. Rear fenced yard with travertine patio — ideal for pets, and outdoor entertaining. Spring-blooming azaleas and irises frame the front of the home. Front-yard hyacinths and a couple of English rosebushes provide a burst of spring fragrance and color. The rear and side of the house is beautifully planted with perennials — lilies, irises, tulips, oregano, coneflowers, and abundant daffodils and black- and brown-eyed Susans — with a lovely ring of hosta, additional tulips and a few rose bushes along the back of the yard. Only 5 minutes to DC and Takoma Park, with downtown D.C. and Silver Spring just a few miles away. A great opportunity to move into a well‑maintained home close to stores and shopping (to include the Mall at Prince George's), and easy access to several nearby bus stops for transit to four metro stations on the green (West Hyattsville and Hyattsville Crossing) and red (Fort Totten and Takoma) lines only one to two miles away. Seller may need a short rent back
