Don't hike to this property, run.
Tucked away at the end of a quiet street with the Northwest Branch Trailhead and a babbling stream just outside the front door, this mid-century modern retreat offers a lifestyle that is increasingly hard to find. Surrounded by nature yet minutes from Metro, shopping, dining, and major commuter routes, this 4-bedroom, 3-bath home is the perfect balance of privacy and convenience.
Inside, timeless mid-century design shines through vaulted ceilings with exposed wood beams, hardwood floors throughout the main level, and walls of windows that flood the home with natural light. The spacious living room centers around a cozy fireplace, while the beautifully updated tiled sunroom creates the perfect space to relax and enjoy the changing seasons. The bright kitchen features granite countertops, a gas stove, side-by-side refrigerator with ice maker and water filter, and a charming window seat overlooking the wooded ravine.
The Forest Knolls Pool is a beloved neighborhood amenity and a favorite destination for residents during the summer months. Its convenient location and strong sense of community make it one of the area's most cherished features.
The recently renovated garden-level suite offers exceptional flexibility with its own private entrance, kitchenette, built-in workspaces for two, full bath, and separate living area, making it ideal for guests, extended family, remote work, or potential income opportunities.
Step outside to enjoy the deck and patio overlooking mature trees and lush landscaping. In the spring, the property comes alive with colorful azaleas and daffodils. Whether you're enjoying your morning coffee while listening to the stream, hiking or biking miles of nearby trails, or simply unwinding in the peaceful surroundings, this home feels like a private nature preserve.
Located within walking distance of Forest Knolls Elementary School, Forest Knolls Community Pool, and North Four Corners Park, and just minutes from Trader Joe's, Safeway, Woodmoor Shopping Center, downtown Silver Spring, and both the Silver Spring and Forest Glen Metro stations. Easy access to I-495, Colesville Road, and University Boulevard makes commuting a breeze.
A rare opportunity to own a distinctive mid-century modern home where nature begins at your front door and every day feels like a getaway.
