Perfectly situated near local parks and transportation, this brick Colonial blends old school charm with modern functionality. The interior is bright and sunny with hardwood floors and fresh paint throughout. A wood-burning fireplace lends the living room a cozy, welcoming feel. Granite countertops crown the updated kitchen with stainless steel appliances, gas stove, and new microwave. Winter, spring, summer, or fall, you won't want to leave the spacious deck off the expanded back of this move-in ready home. The fully fenced and flat backyard is perfect for pets, kids, even croquet. Don't miss the off-street parking for FIVE, including a detached, wired garage. Perfect for that crafty homeowner and a rare find at this price point. The finished basement with exterior access provides added flex space (think: rec room, home office, or workout space!). Additional updates include new tile in the shower, front-loading washer and dryer topped with folding station, and refurbished upper stairs. Home is 0.3 miles to newly renovated Wheaton Library, 0.8 miles to Wheaton Regional Park and Pine Lake, 1 mile to the Wheaton metro, 1 mile to Claridge Park with hiking trails and new playground, and just minutes to Kensington's shops and restaurants.
