In 2004, the kitchen underwent a total gut and renovation, featuring hardwood maple cabinets, cork flooring, and granite countertops. This space is perfect for both casual family meals and elegant dinner parties. That same year, a new electrical panel was installed, and approximately 90% of the main floor and basement were rewired to ensure modern safety and efficiency.
The exterior and yard have seen significant improvements, beginning with a complete gut and relandscaping project that spanned from 2004 to 2010. Enhancements include a flagstone patio and walkway surrounding a large fireplace, installed in 2006, creating a perfect outdoor entertainment area. New copper gutters on the front of the house and aluminum gutters elsewhere were added in 2010 to improve water management and aesthetic appeal.
The interior has been meticulously upgraded over the years. The main floor half bath was completely renovated in 2008, followed by the installation of a gas fireplace insert and glass doors in 2009, adding warmth and charm to the living space. That same year, new natural gas furnace, air conditioner, and air handler systems were installed, along with new roof shingles for the garage.
Further upgrades include a new fiberglass front door in 2012 and a full house backup generator in 2013, ensuring comfort and security during power outages. The roof was entirely redone in 2013 with a ridge vent, new shingles, and a waterproof membrane, along with new vinyl siding and replacement windows, enhancing both durability and energy efficiency.
The basement is a standout feature, with a finished laundry room equipped with LG front-loading washer and dryer added in 2014. The basement's full bath received a complete makeover in 2015, featuring vinyl replacement windows, Lifeproof flooring, and a large cedar closet. One side of the basement was also gutted and redone that year, providing additional living space.
In 2019, the home received all new high-end appliances, including a Thermador stove and dishwasher and an Electrolux Icon refrigerator, along with a pull-out range hood. The main bathroom upstairs was also completely renovated, bringing modern luxury to this classic home.
Recent updates include a new hot water heater installed in 2022 and a new main sewer line from the house to the sidewalk in 2023, ensuring the home’s infrastructure remains top-notch. The front of the house now features a new flagstone walkway, installed in 2024, adding to the home's curb appeal.
Conveniently located less than a mile from the Hyattsville Crossing metro stop, bus stops, and the MARC station, commuting is a breeze. Nearby amenities like tennis/pickleball courts, top-rated UNIVERSITY PARK Elementary School, car charging stations and vibrant community events like the 4th of July Parade, Azalea Classic 5K Run and Porch Fest make this home an ideal choice.

I'm Tamara Beauchard - I help busy people sell their houses easily.
Too many people have been through the horrible process of selling their homes without understanding what price they can expect and how they are supposed to make their homes look for showings. The problem isn't the people selling their homes, the problem is that they needed a better guide.
How can I be your guide? As a top-performing realtor with Re/Max Professionals, I handled nearly $16 million in real estate transactions this past year. I stay on top of the market to ensure that you are confident about the price and the process from our first meeting to the settlement table.
