Nestled in the heart of the charming Riverdale Park community, this classic Cape Cod offers character, space, and a location that brings everyday convenience within easy reach. Set on a corner lot and framed by a fully fenced yard with a white picket fence, the home exudes warmth and curb appeal from the moment you arrive. Inside, hardwood floors flow throughout the main and upper levels, creating a timeless foundation for every room. A welcoming foyer opens to the living and dining rooms on either side, both featuring elegant crown molding and abundant natural light. The kitchen is well-appointed with 42 inch cabinetry, granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, and a convenient side door for easy outdoor access. The main level also offers a bedroom with its own private en suite bath, making it an ideal option for the primary bedroom with added accessibility and comfort. Upstairs, two additional bedrooms share a full bath with a sleek tiled tub and shower surround, combining classic charm with modern finishes. The lower level adds even more versatility, with a spacious recreation room, a third full bath, laundry area, and walkout stairs leading to the backyard. Outside, enjoy the back patio, gazebo, and two storage sheds, perfect for outdoor entertaining, relaxing weekends, or additional storage. Riverdale Park’s vibrant town center is just moments away, offering neighborhood favorites like the weekly farmers market, Riversdale House Museum, and a growing collection of restaurants and cafes. Enjoy weekend walks or bike rides along the Trolley Trail or the Anacostia Riverwalk Trail, or spend the day at one of the nearby playgrounds or dog parks. For daily essentials, Whole Foods, Thursday's farmer's market and Trader Joe’s are all nearby. Enjoy Rivieras Tapas, nationally recognized 2Fifty Texas BBQ, and Town Center Market just a couple of blocks away. Commuters will appreciate access to the Riverdale MARC Station, the Green Line Metro, the upcoming Purple Line, and nearby highways including US 1, E-W Highway, and the BW Parkway. A perfect blend of charm, space, and unbeatable location, this Riverdale Park gem is ready to welcome you home.

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by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.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