The main level also features a powder room and a light-filled addition, currently used as a reading room-but also perfect for a home office or creative space.

And you're just 1.6 miles from Takoma Park's beloved restaurants, shops and farmers' market. New roof March of 2025. Open House Saturday 2/28 from 1-3pm. Read Less
