119 lakeside drive

This roomy, beautifully maintained home has American-style space and comfort, with a distinctly European flair to its upgraded kitchen and its built-in closet storage systems. On the upper level of this generously proportioned split foyer there are hardwood floors, with three bedrooms including a primary bedroom with a renovated en suite. The kitchen is styled in vivid black, grey and red. The many, many glossy, flat-front, soft-close cabinets will make serious cooks sigh with pleasure. The breakfast bar has plenty of additional storage built in underneath, and a sophisticated black subway tile backsplash makes cleanup easy. The open dining and living floorplan allows for easy mingling, and sliding glass doors open onto a large, comfortable Trex-style deck, with just a few steps down to the back yard. The lower level of the home, carpeted in plush, soft gray carpet, includes two more bright bedrooms and another full bath, as well as a generous family room with a brick fireplace. The laundry room is spacious and clean, with a full-sized front-loading washer and dryer, and plenty of room for a laundry folding table or workshop/project space. Note: as is sometimes the case with split foyers, the tax records report a smaller finished square footage than is actually in the house. The home has easy access to a footpath to Greenbelt Lake. It’s also less than a mile from Old Greenbelt’s town center, which includes the Old Greenbelt Theatre, the New Deal Café, the Co-op grocery store, several restaurants and a yoga studio. The home is within the Eleanor Roosevelt High School district, and near to the metro and a University of Maryland shuttle stop. Is this Old Greenbelt gem destined to be your forever home?
