There is a bus on 193. College Park Metro is just under 2 miles, Greenbelt Metro is a bit further. There is also a MARC train at both stations. You are also close to the Beltway. It is 1.3 miles to the Beltway west (at Route 1), and 2.1 miles to the Beltway east (at Kennilworth).
The College Park Trolley Trail (for biking, walking, or pushing a stroller) is only one house away from the house; it goes to the Berwyn Neighborhood Park and to the University of Maryland campus. This trail follows where the old trolley tracks were. In 1902 the streetcar went from DC to Laurel. There are several parks in the area... and many trails as well.
This area has a variety of homes, some are from the 1900s and some are fairly new -- like this one.
This section of College Park is part of the old town of Berwyn. Berwyn was divided into 2 parts by the railroad tracks. There is a walking bridge (it is a ramp -- with no stairs) over the tracks at Berwyn Rd and on the other side is Lake Artemesia and also one of the "Prince George’s County Imagination Playgrounds," just off Indian Creek. (There is also a coin operated electric car charger there). (This location is inside of College Park. If you are working for the University, be sure to ask about their grant program for those purchasing inside the city of College Park.)
Less than a mile from here, as the crow flies, is the oldest continually-operating airport in the world, where there were many firsts, and there is now a museum.
There are lots of restaurants and places to shop in this area. You are only about a mile and a half from Beltway Plaza Mall where there is a Giant, Burlington Coat Factory, T.J. Maxx, Target, and Marshalls, as well as various restaurants. Restaurants which are close to the house include lots of fast food restaurants such as: Popeyes, KFC, Wendy's, McDonalds, Checkers, Little Caesar's, etc. and also sit-down restaurants such as: The Silver Diner, The Iron Pig (Korean BBQ), and Tacos a la Madre (on Berwyn Road just a few streets south of Tecumseh in College Park), and there are many more on Route 1, both north and south of the university.
*The current warranty for the solar panels will be signed over to the buyer and cover for about 9 more years.
