Perfectly positioned on a quiet residential street in the sought-after Riggs Park neighborhood, this beautifully updated semi-detached Colonial blends timeless appeal with modern upgrades. Step inside to discover a bright, open-concept main level where natural light streams through large windows, highlighting original hardwood floors and a seamless flow between the living, dining, and kitchen spaces. The thoughtfully renovated kitchen features stainless steel appliances, a central island, custom cabinetry, and ample prep space, equally suited for everyday meals and entertaining. A stylish powder room adds both form and function to the main level. Upstairs, three comfortable bedrooms share a modernized full bathroom. The fully finished lower level offers a spacious rec room, a fourth bedroom, a second full bath, and a laundry area. This flexible space is perfect for guests, remote work, or movie nights. Outdoor living is just as inviting, with a newly added rear deck and a flat, fenced backyard offering privacy and room to relax. A front-entry awning adds charm and protection from the elements, and the off-street parking for two vehicles brings added ease. What truly sets this home apart is its exceptional walkability. It’s just a 10-minute stroll (or less!) to the Rec Center, parks, splash pad, library, Aldi, Super Walmart, Giant, Chick-fil-A, and more. Plus, it’s within easy reach of the Fort Totten Metro Station (Red, Green, and Yellow Lines) and the Metro bus line, making downtown DC, Brookland, and Silver Spring just minutes away. With continued neighborhood growth, including the Art Place development bringing new retail and dining, this home offers a unique opportunity to enjoy peaceful, community-focused living without sacrificing access to the best of the city. Don’t miss your chance to call this special Riggs Park gem your own.

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listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.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.
