About This Property

Set on a prominent 0.3 acre corner lot in the highly sought-after Sumner neighborhood, 4700 Fort Sumner Drive offers a rare blend of classic center hall colonial architecture and extensive recent updates, delivering a home that feels both timeless and move-in ready. Inside, a gracious center hall layout opens to expansive yet comfortable living spaces. The front-to-back living room is anchored by a wood-burning fireplace and flows seamlessly to the outdoor entertaining areas. The formal dining room features classic millwork and updated lighting, ideal for both intimate dinners and larger gatherings. The kitchen, redesigned as part of a recent renovation, spans the rear of the home and is both functional and inviting. A skylit breakfast area overlooks the expansive  backyard, while updated cabinetry, appliances, lighting, and generous prep space make it a true hub of the home. The main level also includes a welcoming family room with a second fireplace and custom built-ins, along with two powder rooms. A standout feature is the private, soundproofed office with its own side entrance-perfect for working from home or meeting clients.

The second level offers four spacious bedrooms and three full baths, including a well-appointed primary suite with a walk-in closet and en suite bath. The third level provides two additional large bedrooms and an updated full bath, offering flexible space for guests, au pair, or home offices. The lower level adds versatility with a recreation room featuring a third fireplace, a dedicated workshop, mudroom, and direct access to the attached two-car garage with EV charging.

Located just off Massachusetts Avenue, Sumner is known for its strong community feel and easy access to parks, trails, shopping, and commuter routes. The home is also part of the highly regarded Wood Acres, Pyle, and Whitman school cluster.

A beautifully updated home with space, flexibility, and enduring appeal in one of the area's most desirable neighborhoods.
