What's special
Introducing 505 Ellsworth Drive, an expanded cape nestled in the heart of Silver Spring. This renovated residence offers the epitome of modern comfort and convenience, mere steps away from all that Silver Spring has to offer, with a master front garden that has been deemed the "best yard and flowers in South Woodside Park". Step inside to discover a recently renovated space with an open concept kitchen, dining room, and living room adorned with recessed lighting and a wood-burning fireplace, creating a cozy ambiance for gatherings and relaxation. The kitchen is a chef's dream, boasting maple cabinets, granite countertops, and GE Cafe appliances. The main level also features a generous primary bedroom with a freshly renovated en-suite bath, adorned with beautiful French doors that open onto the spectacular backyard waterfall—a tranquil oasis right at your doorstep. Additionally, a second full bath, laundry room, and access to the family room complete this level, offering seamless functionality and modern living. Upstairs, you'll find two more bedrooms, a powder room, and ample storage space, providing versatility and room for personalization. Throughout the home, attention to detail is evident, with glowing hardwoods and many other high-end finishes adding character and charm. But the allure doesn't end there. This property also features a licensed one-bedroom apartment (ADU) on the lower level, boasting a separate entrance, outdoor seating area, living room, kitchen with granite countertops, den, full bath, and laundry room—rented as an Airbnb for rental income by the sellers (329 nights in 2024!) but it is also ideal for guests and extended family, *Note, MoCo DHHS will require the new owner to apply to transfer the license within 15 days of the sale or they’ll have to start the application process all over again. Do not miss the versatile workshop/bonus space, where creativity knows no bounds. Whether you're a hobbyist, an entrepreneur, or simply in need of extra storage, this multifunctional area is a game-changer. With its own 60 amp electrical panel, you'll have the power to bring your visions to life, whether it's woodworking, crafting, or tinkering with projects. Location-wise, this residence is a commuter's dream, less than a mile to the Silver Spring Metro and even closer to the future Purple line Metro. Plus, enjoy the convenience of nearby amenities such as Ellsworth Dog Park, Sligo Creek Trail, Farmers Market, and Whole Foods—all within a short stroll from your doorstep.
