Property Description
the heart of Takoma.Rich in original character yet tailored for contemporary living, this inviting
home combines classic Craftsman details with thoughtful modern improvements, including a
new primary suite, expanded open kitchen and sunroom, spacious deck and patio, and off-street
parking.
From the moment you arrive, the home's welcoming front porch sets the tone. Inside, original
hardwood floors, warm wood trim, delightful built-ins, and period details complement a main
living area centered around an original brick fireplace and built-in shelving.
The heart of the home is the expanded kitchen, where wood cabinetry, granite countertops,
period glass backsplash, stainless steel appliances, and a generous island create a stylish and
functional space for cooking, gathering, and entertaining. Direct access to the deck, patio, and
private backyard makes indoor-outdoor living effortless.
The upper-level primary suite offers a peaceful retreat with wood flooring and a renovated
bathroom featuring a double vanity, travertine floors, and a travertine walk-in shower. Outside,
the beautifully landscaped front yard features azaleas, fruit trees, and a charming walkway. The
deep, fenced backyard is a true urban oasis, offering privacy, a large patio for entertaining or
enjoying a fire pit, and convenient off-street parking.
And then there's the location. The Takoma Aquatic Center and Takoma Recreation Center are
practically at your doorstep, with the Takoma Metro approximately 0.6 miles away. Walk to the
Takoma Farmers Market, grab a drink at Takoma Beverage Company, explore nearby parks,
attend community concerts, or enjoy the neighborhood's local shops and restaurants. The vibrant
Walter Reed development is also nearby, offering additional dining, shopping, Whole Foods, and
DC International IB charter school.
6610 5th Street NW offers the rare combination of historic personality, modern updates,
generous outdoor space, and a truly walkable Takoma lifestyle—all in one exceptional
home.
