Step out back and you'll see why this yard sells the house - extensive brickwork, a multi-level patio, raised garden beds, and mature shade trees, built for entertaining. This move-in ready 1948 brick Colonial sits in the heart of deeply local Cheverly. 3 bedrooms, 2 full baths (one up, one in the finished basement). Hardwood floors, gas fireplace, and a den with new heat and air. Updated kitchen with granite counters and stainless appliances. Fully redone upstairs bath. Recent updates: 200-amp electrical upgrade, new fence, fresh interior paint, refinished hardwoods. Older updates include replaced supply pipes and a 2022 water heater. A few small maintenance items remain. Model ship and bedroom map, in the home since its first owner, convey - a nice bit of continuity. Beyond the house, you'll find yourself in the historic Town of Cheverly. It's just under a mile to the Cheverly Metro, 4 mile drive to Costco, Lowes & shops & restaurants at Dakota Crossing, and less than 15 minutes to the restaurants in the Arts District in Hyattsville. You're just 15 minutes away from grocery shopping at Wegmans in Lanham, & from the Whole Foods Market in Riverdale.
