Three-Bedroom Bungalow in Takoma Park

This Takoma Park bungalow’s modest facade conceals a more spacious layout. Renovations in 2002 added square footage to the home, which now has a large master suite and an open kitchen/dining room combo. A white-picket fence and stone walkway connecting the front yard to the back add charm, and the covered front porch and comfortable backyard, complete with sizable old shade trees, will please nature lovers. The home is a mile from the Takoma Metro on the Red Line and the action of Carroll Street.
