Outside, the landscaped yard, detached garage/shed for storage (as-is condition), and driveway with space for multiple cars add everyday convenience. The location is hard to beat, with the shops and restaurants along Frederick Road a short walk, bike ride, or drive away, plus easy access to local schools, the library, and places of worship.
