Welcome to 15 Jefferson Avenue, a beautifully reimagined 1923 Craftsman-style cottage situated adjacent to Sligo Creek Park. Thoughtfully renovated, this home retains its vintage character while seamlessly incorporating smart, modern updates. Original wood trim, casement windows, whimsical lighting, and vintage hardware lend timeless charm, while the refreshed design enhances everyday comfort. All under a new roof! A welcoming front porch with a ceiling fan invites you to settle in and stay a while, overlooking vibrant front gardens and a fully fenced yard with meandering stone pathways. Inside, the gracious living room opens to the dining area, creating the perfect flow for gathering and entertaining. You’ll note the high ceilings and original wood floors. The kitchen is a chef’s dream, featuring rich Soapstone countertops, stainless steel appliances, including a new refrigerator and a Bertazzoni gas range with stainless-steel hood, tile backsplash, and a deep pantry. A convenient pass-through from the kitchen to the dining room enhances the sense of openness and ease. Tucked just beyond the kitchen, a converted sun-room offers ideal space for a home office or reading nook, complete with direct access to the rear deck and yard. The main level also includes two spacious bedrooms, an updated hall bath with a classic clawfoot tub and Soapstone vanity, and a stackable laundry closet with new washer and dryer for added convenience. Upstairs is a private and airy primary suite, designed as a true retreat. The bedroom features a cozy sitting area, dual closets, spot lighting, and a sleek ceiling fan. The en-suite bath is outfitted with subway tile, a built-in cabinet, and a deep, walk-in shower. Out back, the fenced yard feels like a private garden escape, with mature landscaping, two decks, and a saltwater hot tub. The exterior-access cellar includes two distinct sections: one for storing tools and the other for general storage. A private driveway completes the offering. Set on a peaceful street with views of Sligo Creek Park, the location is as special as the home itself. Residents here enjoy strong community spirit—think summer block parties, holiday traditions, and impromptu park meetups. Just over a mile to the Red Line Metro and minutes from the shops, restaurants, and entertainment of both Takoma Park and downtown Silver Spring, this is a home that delivers character, convenience, and community in equal measure. You’ll love every inch—and every moment—at 15 Jefferson!
