Welcome to 608 Ethan Allen Avenue — a thoughtfully expanded, light-filled colonial in the heart of Takoma Park. With 2,700 square feet of finished living space and more than $300,000 in capital improvements, this beautifully updated home blends classic charm with modern comfort, flexibility, and efficiency. Rare off-street parking, a Level 2 EV charger, and a major two-story addition completed in 2020 make this a standout opportunity. A charming front walk leads into a traditional center-hall layout. The main level offers a spacious living room with a wood-burning fireplace, a bright enclosed sunroom ideal for a home office or reading nook, a formal dining room, and a comfortable family room perfect for everyday living and entertaining. The 2020 renovation dramatically enhanced functionality with the addition of a mudroom with direct access to the rear deck, a convenient powder room, and an expanded kitchen. At the heart of the home is the chef’s kitchen, remodeled and expanded as part of the renovation. Quartz countertops, stainless steel appliances, a gas range and oven, vented range hood, and abundant cabinetry are complemented by large windows that flood the space with natural light. The open layout allows for effortless flow between kitchen, dining, and living areas. Upstairs, the primary suite—newly constructed in 2020—serves as a serene retreat with vaulted ceilings, peaceful views of the expansive fenced backyard, and an ensuite bath featuring a glass step-in shower and high-efficiency fixtures. Two additional bedrooms with generous closet space and a full hall bath complete the upper level. Year-round comfort is ensured with central air conditioning in the original home, energy-efficient mini-split systems in the addition, dual-pane windows, and added attic insulation. The finished lower level provides additional flexible living space, including a recreation room with recessed LED lighting, pantry storage, laundry area, and a full bathroom. A walkout connects directly to the backyard, creating excellent indoor-outdoor flow. Outside, enjoy a large fenced backyard with a gazebo, three raised garden beds ready for planting, and ample room for play, entertaining, or quiet relaxation. The front yard features a paver driveway and hardscaped parking pad accommodating multiple vehicles, along with a Level 2 EV charger for modern, eco-conscious living. Located in vibrant Takoma Park with easy access to bus routes, parks, shops, and neighborhood favorites, 608 Ethan Allen Avenue offers space, updates, sustainability, and peace of mind—all backed by extensive structural and system upgrades. 0.6 Miles to Cielo Rojo and TPSS Food Co-op 0.3 Miles to Lidl 1.2 Miles to MotorKat 207 feet to RideOn/Bus Stop for Route 16 which goes to TKPK metro
