Description
Step into a living piece of American history. Built from a Sears Kit Home and delivered by rail directly to the end of Calvert Road, this beloved bungalow has sheltered five generations of the same family and is now being offered to the public for the very first time.
Nestled in the heart of Historic Calvert Hills, where tree-lined streets give way to quiet trails and a true sense of community, this home greets you with mature, lush landscaping that frames a warm and welcoming path to the enclosed three-season porch - a perfect perch for every season.
Walking in, you're greeted by warm wood floors and a lovely living room that sets the tone for the craftsmanship found throughout. The separate dining room and large windowed kitchen, complete with a pantry and stainless steel appliances, both open directly onto the charming screened porch, making indoor-outdoor living effortless whether you're hosting dinner or savoring a quiet morning coffee. Soaring ceilings, rich detailed millwork, and original hardwood floors tell the story of a home lovingly preserved, while the updated kitchen and bathroom bring it seamlessly into the present. The main level also offers a bedroom, full laundry, and easy flow between spaces.
Upstairs, two additional bedrooms and two generous storage areas round out the upper level. The unfinished lower level provides abundant storage today and exciting possibilities for tomorrow. Dual zone cooling ensures year-round comfort on every level.
Out back, a detached storage building (original garage), off-street parking for two-plus cars, and an extra half-lot create rare outdoor space: mature trees, room to garden, and room to breathe.
Then there's the location. Steps from the College Park Metro (Green & Yellow Lines, with Purple Line expansion coming), the MARC Train, Trader Joe's, Whole Foods, Target, gyms, coffee shops, and restaurants are all within walking distance. Minutes from the University of Maryland's main campus, Route 1, I-295, and I-495, with easy access throughout Maryland, Washington, D.C. and beyond.
