Property Description
Begin your mornings on the west-facing front porch or unwind in the private, fully fenced backyard—both perfect spots to relax and take in the natural beauty that defines this property. Inside, the main level features refinished hardwood floors, two light-filled bedrooms (one ideal as a home office), and an updated full bath. The inviting living room flows into a dedicated dining area and leads to a beautifully remodeled kitchen that opens directly to the backyard, creating an ideal layout for everyday living and entertaining.
The kitchen strikes the perfect balance between style and function, featuring sleek stainless steel appliances with gas cooking and a charming breakfast nook that invites lingering over morning coffee and conversation.
The fully finished lower level expands the home's flexibility and comfort, offering a recreation room, two bonus rooms, a full bath, laundry, and utility space. With its private entrance, this level is ideal for multigenerational living, a guest suite, or creative studio space.
Major updates include a new water heater (2025), a central HVAC system approximately 10 years old, and newly installed central AC. Fresh paint throughout enhances every room, and a large shed plus off-street parking in the driveway add everyday convenience.
The professionally landscaped backyard is a true gardener's paradise. Over 100 native and perennial plants have been lovingly added by the current owners, creating a certified butterfly and native plant garden that supports a thriving ecosystem of butterflies, birds, and squirrels. This drought- and deer-resistant landscape features perennial lavender, fig and persimmon trees, Japanese cherry and maple trees, and colorful blooms through three seasons.
Sustainability is at the heart of this home's story. Ideally located just steps from the Takoma Park Community Center, Sligo Creek Park, and the beloved Takoma Farmers Market, you're also within walking distance to local favorites including the Takoma Co-op, Spring Mill Bakery, Soko Butcher, Cielo Rojo, Azalea Nails, Takoma schools, and the brand-new Takoma Library. The Metro, Old Town gazebo, and downtown Silver Spring are just minutes away, making this home as convenient as it is charming.
1215 Kirklynn Avenue is more than a house—it's a lifestyle rooted in community, nature, and thoughtful design. Whether you love to garden, host friends, or simply enjoy peaceful moments on the porch, this exceptional home is ready to welcome you.
