What a lovely, spacious house! Light pours through the large windows and skylights of this attractive, center hall Colonial. There are quality vintage details throughout such as hardwood floors, a wood burning fireplace with an elegant mantle and arched openings in the plaster walls. The kitchen has been updated with granite counters, stainless steel appliances and recessed lighting. The current owners created an arched opening in the kitchen wall and now the living room, dining room and kitchen flow together beautifully. The main floor also features the convenience of a powder room and wood-paneled den which makes an excellent home office. There are 5 bedrooms (3 on the upper level, 2 on the topmost level) with plenty of closet space and 2 large full baths, each featuring a double vanity. The upper floor bathroom was recently renovated with new plumbing fixtures, pretty tile work and recessed lights. The large, basement-level recreation room has a powder room and a door to the back yard.The house is located on a quiet, interior street and is beautifully connected to the outdoors. Views from the low-maintenance, vinyl windows look out onto the rich, green tree canopy of University Park. Thanks to the back windows and a glass patio door, there is a lovely connection to the spacious back deck and secluded, beautifully planted yard. Nestled nicely in the back is a detached garage with an automatic garage door opener and a play area.University Park is a highly desirable neighborhood located along the Route One Corridor in Prince Georges County. Visually-appealing, well-maintained houses are trademarks of the neighborhood which maintains a quiet small-town feel while, at the same time, being in easy reach of public transportation, shopping, restaurants and entertainment. There is an active civic association which hosts the 4th of July parade, an annual chili cook-off, outdoor movie nights and other fun, yearly events. Families with young children appreciate that University Park Elementary is one of the top-rated schools in the county.
