About this home
Colonial Village Masterpiece | Mid-Century Modern Gem on Prime Corner Lot | Steps to Rock Creek Park & Parkway Deli
Rarely does a home come to market that so effortlessly blends architectural soul with modern comfort — and this exceptional split-level residence in the heart of Colonial Village is exactly that.
Set on a prime corner lot, this beautifully maintained 5-bedroom, 4.5-bathroom home offers approximately 4,200 square feet of thoughtfully designed living space, showcasing the clean lines, vaulted ceilings, and rich hardwood floors that define the best of mid-century modern design.
The updated kitchen flows naturally into a formal dining area and an oversized, sun-drenched sunroom — a versatile space equally suited to quiet mornings, productive afternoons, or relaxed evening entertaining. The expansive living room commands attention, anchored by soaring ceilings and generous natural light that give the home a sense of openness rarely found at this price point in the city.
A main-level den serves beautifully as a guest suite, private home office, or multigenerational living space. Downstairs, the fully finished lower level delivers a massive family room, an additional bedroom, and a renovated full bath — ideal for hosting, recreation, or a private retreat.
Outside, a newly completed renovation of the side yard and fencing brings fresh curb appeal, enhanced privacy, and added functionality to the exterior. The fenced backyard is equally versatile — ready for pets, play, or entertaining — with the side yard already prepped for a custom patio. Completing the package: a coveted 2-car garage with driveway parking for two additional vehicles, a genuine luxury in Northwest DC.
This home also delivers something increasingly rare — a solar energy system that truly works for you. The solar panels fully offset the electric bill and generate approximately $9,000 in annual income through the automatic sale of Solar Renewable Energy Credits (SRECs), turning your rooftop into a revenue stream. An EV charging jack in the garage adds yet another layer of modern convenience for today's eco-conscious buyer.
The location is simply unmatched. Steps from the trails and green space of Rock Creek Park, and a short walk to neighborhood staples including Parkway Deli and Snider’s Super Foods. Silver Spring and Takoma Metro stations are both easily accessible, as are Beach Drive, 16th Street, and I-495 — connecting you seamlessly to the entire DMV. Downtown Silver Spring, Whole Foods, Target, The Fillmore, and AFI Silver Theatre are all minutes away.
Colonial Village is one of Northwest DC’s most cherished and established neighborhoods — and this home represents one of its finest offerings. Space, style, and a newly refreshed outdoor experience, all in one remarkable package.
