$165,000 Above Ask In Takoma Park

This 1918 Takoma Park listing attracted a lot of buyer attention, spent just four days on the market, and fetched $175,000 above its asking price.

There are some nice modern touches, including a good-sized family room addition off the back of the listing. The home also has an ideal neighborhood location, as it sits on a tree-lined street just steps from Old Town Takoma Park.
