The seller has updated the upper-level floors with new laminate flooring and is now offering 3% closing help for an acceptable offer along with a reduction in price. Dating to 1890 this simple home reminds us of a bygone era when the countryside surrounded it and life moved slower. With 3BR 1BA it's not large but neither is its price. Fresh paint, new floors/carpet, kitchen appliances & cabinets bring new life to it. There is a full bathroom and bedroom on the main level for somebody who does not do stairs. The living room is expansive with a south-facing bay window, while there is a separate dining room behind it that holds a decent-sized table. The kitchen is newly remodeled and there is a den off the kitchen that can make a laundry room. The upper level 2 bedrooms are to have new laminate flooring installed by the seller (over original pine floors) and the wood stairs will have carpet covers added to the treads. The floorplan drawer measured the house at 1050 square feet (larger than the public record indicates). The large 7500 square foot lot offers ample opportunity for planting a flower and vegetable garden, and the long driveway w/room for 3 cars leads to an old shed/garage that can be very useful for hobbies. You are only one mile from the Green Line West Hyattsville Metro Station, and the metro bus crosses 29th Street at Upshur Street which is a short stroll to the next block above it. Mount Rainier was Sustainable Maryland Certified in 2012 (one of only 4 towns then), after passing a "Going Green" ordinance, and has renewed its certification several times since. It's also a Historic District, allowing for State Tax Credits for approved repairs/upgrades to buildings. It offers small-town appeal in an urban setting that is a short ride away from Capitol Hill and the White House. Local Citizens take pleasure in the revitalization taking place around the City and the active engagement that promotes local pride there. You are a short stroll from the locally famous Glut food cooperative (since 1969) and Joe's Movement Emporium (dance, concerts, yoga, children's pre, and post-school programs), and the Arts District that stretches along the Route 1 corridor. Artists working from home in the City do not need a special license to work on and sell art from their home studios. Walk to Pennyroyal Station with New American Cuisine, Dodah's Kitchen Vegan restaurant, and Potomac Fish House. You are a short drive from Pizza Paradiso, Franklin's Brew Pub, and Busboys and Poets. At nearby Fort Lincoln, there's a major shopping and more restaurants anchored by Costco. It's just over a mile from West Hyattsville Metro (Green Line) and with bus service nearby on Route 1 connecting to Red Line Metro, public transportation is super friendly. For bikers and nature lovers, there are miles of bike/hiking trails in nearby river parks that follow the Northwest Branch of the Anacostia River and connect through Washington D.C. Enjoy summer evenings on the old-fashioned front porch and feel yourself relax and slip back in time to the bygone years of this adorably cute 1890 home!
