WOW! This may be the one you have been waiting for. Live in your vacation home year round! Step back in time where the pace is a bit slower and nature surrounds you. Expanded 1875 cottage that has been lovingly renovated. Reclaimed oak flooring, new wainscoting, custom built-ins, thoughtfully renovated primary bath, modern kitchen with maple cabinets, quartz counters, new stainless appliances ( including dual fuel stove). This house has tons of flexible space with an office or music room on the main, and a sitting room/playroom off one of the upstairs bedrooms. And the real bonus is the office ( over the 2 car garage) that has it's own entrance! The two car garage just needs a driveway! Outdoors you have a screened porch, a big deck, nice fenced yard and a small out building/shed. An unfinished partial basement is perfect for a workshop. There is so much flexible space here. Live your best life in Washington Grove, with its 100+ acres of parks and forest preserves, hiking trails, private filtered swimming lake, tennis courts and playgrounds, where community spirit and commitment abound. Conveniently located within walking distance to the MARC train. The Shady Grove metro, I-270 and ICC are nearby. Property tax figure includes $1,301.09 Washington Grove town tax

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
