Welcome to your dream home in the friendly town of Kensington! This beautifully renovated 4-bedroom, 3-full-bath residence offers the perfect blend of modern luxury and classic charm. The kitchen is a chef's paradise, boasting brand new cabinets, a stunning quartz countertop island, and state-of-the-art appliances (fridge soon to be replaced). The expansive living and dining areas feature grand windows that provide a picturesque view of the quiet street. The white oak hardwood floors throughout the first floor have been tastefully refinished throughout to show the beauty of the natural wood. All three bathrooms have been meticulously updated with contemporary fixtures and finishes. The spacious primary bedroom upstairs has its own attached bath and looks out over an expansive backyard. Two more generously-sized bedrooms and a second full bathroom provide a family with all the space they need on one floor. The downstairs area includes a spacious 4th bedroom with its own attached full bathroom, offering privacy and convenience for extended family and guests. The family room has a cozy fireplace, perfect for relaxing evenings. Both these living areas have been recently upgraded with new luxury vinyl tile. The huge backyard has a brand new fence enclosing it. Tucked away in the back of the yard is a freshly renovated studio with heating and cooling, adding an extra 190 square feet of versatile space that is not included in the home's square footage: use it as an office, a workout space or a gaming room. The front and back yards have been newly landscaped with lush grass and beautiful plantings, creating a serene outdoor oasis. This home also has a brand new roof, a new water heater and many other upgrades throughout. An extensive, clean but unfinished part of the basement provides ample storage space. Just minutes from the Red Line, this home offers easy access to both Grosvenor Station (providing a direct route to Dupont Circle) and Wheaton station (bringing you straight to Union Station. For daily commuting, the historic Kensington MARC Station is even closer than the Metro. The home is blocks away from a Starbucks, a CVS and many other shops. Enjoy the charm of downtown Kensington, with its array of shops, cafes, restaurants, and a year-round weekly farmer's market. This home truly has everything you want and need. Don't miss the opportunity to make it yours!

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
