You won't want to miss this bright, charming home nestled off New Hampshire in the friendly subdivision of Oakview. Oakview offers direct access to the Northwest Branch trails which lead South to the Anacostia river trails and North through Silver Spring. Brilliant access to nature! Minutes to Takoma Park, University of Maryland, Silver Spring, and 30 minutes from BWI, and Downtown Baltimore. The kitchen has been recently renovated with all new cabinets, appliances, quartz counter and ceramic tile flooring. The home has dual zone heating and cooling! The top floor has its own zone, and the 1st floor and basement have the other zone. The top floor having its own zone keeps the top floor cool during the hot summer months which is an issue for any 3 level home with only 1 zone. The 1st floor has 2 bedrooms, full bathroom, living room and an open kitchen/dining area. The upper floor is a large primary suite with bedroom, plenty of storage, office area and full bath. The basement has a large family room, renovated full bath, laundry and its own entrance. The basement could easily be used as a rental with minimal effort or as additional living area for the family. The yard is well maintained and fenced. Ready for the family pet! Both hvac units are new.
