WELCOME TO YOUR TREEHOUSE ABOVE SLIGO CREEK PARK! Step up to this well-maintained Cape Cod in the North Hills of Sligo Creek, where you're a short walk from enjoying miles of trails by the water. Inside, you'll notice how quiet and peaceful this home is. There are original hardwood floors and built-in cabinets throughout. The south-facing living and dining rooms are filled with sunlight and have commanding views of the neighborhood. (If you don't believe me, just look at all the plants!) You'll find a surprising amount of storage space in the kitchen, which opens onto the deep, flat backyard. Two large bedrooms, each with big windows and ample closet space, and a full bathroom round out the main floor. Upstairs, there are two more bedrooms with built-in bookshelves and another full bath. On the lower floor, you'll find a fifth bedroom with a full bath, kitchenette hookup, and separate, ground level entrance. This space is waiting for you to put your mark on it–it could be an ADU, in-law suite, a studio, a home office, or wherever your imagination takes you. There's also an updated utility room and a one-car garage, which makes it easy to bring in groceries and large packages. This home sits on a dead-end street with no through traffic. From here it’s so easy to hop on the Beltway, catch the Red Line, or enjoy restaurants, shops, and entertainment in downtown Silver Spring.
