Open House canceled! DAZZLING, one-of-a-kind Medieval European-inspired home, modeled after a Williamsburg Governor’s Mansion! This rare opportunity offers a beautifully unique and thoughtfully expanded colonial with an interior design evocative of a chivalric castle. Originally built in 1947 with a major full renovation, this home perfectly synthesizes vintage medieval charm with luxurious modern living spaces utilizing exquisite finishes, hand carved Cherry wood accents, stunning Brazilian Cherry floors, recessed LED lighting, brick walls, and other superb architectural details throughout. Every aspect of this home has been thoughtfully designed and enhanced – it is truly a work of art. This home features an inviting parlor entry with custom display shelving, dentil molding, and a wood burning fireplace setting the tone for this home. On the right side of the parlor is a delightful office with an exposed brick wall and access to the large rear deck. On the left side of the parlor, there is an open dining area the flows into the gourmet kitchen. The chef’s kitchen offers an expansive island, granite counters, handsome cabinetry with soft close drawers, a double gas range with a built-in griddle, pendant lighting, marble flooring, and a stainless-steel appliance suite. Off of the kitchen is an incredible great room with a gabled wood ceiling, striking wood paneled walls, a brick fireplace, built-ins, and three sliding doors that open to the rear deck. This level is complete with a sumptuous private primary bedroom suite with a decorative fireplace, vaulted ceilings, a skylight, a walk-in closet and a renovated attached marble bathroom with a glass enclosed shower. There are three bright bedrooms and an updated bathroom on the upper level. Two of the bedrooms have built-in wardrobes. Downstairs is a wonderful recreation room with walls of closets and open shelving, a full bathroom, and a laundry area. The captivating grounds of this home have been meticulously cared for; the yard has colorful plantings and mature trees, a large back and side yard with ample privacy and enchanting brick pathways, a large deck provides more entertaining space, and a custom tree house provides ample space for adventure. Located in the eclectic and vibrant community of Takoma Park, just steps to Long Branch & Sligo Creek trails, parks, including the popular Becca Lily playground, and with ready access to transit, shops & restaurants, and future Purple Line station.
