About This Property

**INCREDIBLE $90,000 PRICE DROP IN THE AMAZING WOODACRES NEIGHBORHOOD** Located on a quiet street in the heart of the sought-after Wood Acres neighborhood, this classic 1940's Colonial sits on a large lot, made wonderfully private with all the mature trees that reside on the property.  Boasting 4 bedrooms and 3 full bathrooms, the main level of the home features a generously sized eat-in kitchen (rare in this neighborhood!), a lovely den-office with bay windows and skylights, a family/living room, and a dining room with fireplace and French doors opening onto a multi-level wood deck in the lush and quiet, yet airy, backyard. The kitchen was fully remodeled in 2009 and includes a custom-made corner bench (with bonus storage drawers underneath!), wood cabinetry, Silestone countertops, stainless steel appliances, and a stunning red Bertazzoni gas range and oven that is both a focal point and statement piece.

The upper level includes the primary bedroom with en suite bathroom and two closets, plus two additional bedrooms and a hall bathroom.  The lower level features a finished, walk-out basement with a family room, built-in cabinets, the 4th bedroom with surprisingly large closets, the 3rd full bathroom, and a laundry/storage area –  flexible living space perfect for guests, in-laws, relatives, older/visiting children, lounging, entertaining, or gym/office space!  We would be remiss to not spotlight the home's ample storage space (another rarity in this neighborhood!), including basement storage, a 220 square-foot attic with pull-down stair access from upstairs landing, and TWO outdoor sheds.  A charming, move-in ready home in the Pyle-Whitman school cluster, in one of the most desirable neighborhoods in Montgomery County just waiting for its new family!

Noteworthy systems/appliance upgrades, replacements, and enhancements include a new roof (2018), new HVAC system (2020), new stainless-steel refrigerator (2020) and dishwasher (2021), as well as a new washer (2019) and dryer (2022), and recently refinished hardwood floors throughout the main and upper levels.  The front yard was fully redesigned by a landscape and stone  artist in 2011 and neighbors often praise the beautiful plantings that offer an array of ever-changing colors and textures throughout the seasons.  The custom design also includes terraced stone retaining walls, flagstone paths and front entry area, and a rock dry streambed.  Large, fenced-in backyard includes the multi-level deck, terracing, and patio.  The home is located just steps from Wood Acres Park, playgrounds, Wood Acres Elementary School, and just a short ride to the Capitol-Crescent Trail, C&O Canal & Potomac River, Glen Echo Park, a wide variety of grocery stores, shopping centers, and some of the best dining in the DMV – both casual and fine dining options.  Charming Wood Acres is a true throwback to when neighborhoods fostered lifelong friendships and a true sense of community spirit.  You often see people on walks, stopping to chat with fellow neighbors and friends.  The words "friendly," "warm," and "welcoming" are often used to describe  the neighborhood and a fabulous 4th of July Parade and the Great Pumpkin tradition for Halloween are just two of the most anticipated annual traditions.  An oasis away from the hustle and bustle that is perfect for relaxation, quiet family nights, as well as entertaining – welcome to your new home!
