Olney, MD 20832 17816 Howe Drive

THIS VINTAGE CAPE COD IS A PRIZE AND BOASTS QUALITY CONSTRUCTION! This beautiful home offers bedrooms on both the upper level and the main level and is situated on a generous-sized lot (over two-thirds acre) with a circular driveway that can park at least eight cars. Over the years, the home has been expanded. Now there is a large family room off of the kitchen and an expansive two-car garage - with stairs going up to a huge unfinished loft (perfect for a future home office or for abundant storage space). The formal living room features a wood-burning fireplace as well as dental molding. THE KITCHEN IS A TRUE COUNTRY KITCHEN WITH SOME UPDATES. Look up and admire the heavy rustic ceiling beams, turn and gaze upon a raised-brick wood-burning fireplace. There is also roomy table space while still leaving plenty of preparation room. The cabinets and stainless steel appliances are updated with a granite countertop. There is also a formal dining room in which to entertain. OTHER FEATURES include a full bathroom on each of the three finished levels and double-paned windows, and many other outstanding features in this pampered home.There are also two storage sheds. Lots of restaurants, shopping, and community & recreational amenities are nearby. This home is also convenient to well-appreciated public and private schools and to major commuter routes, including the InterCounty Connector. The Glenmont Metro is just 7 miles away, and public bus service is nearby. COME SEE FOR YOURSELF! YOU WON'T BE DISAPPOINTED! ----- A REFLECTIVE NOTE ON THIS HOME: Buyers often ask me to let then know when I get a listing in the original section of Williamsburg Village - built in the early-to-mid 1950s - and constructed by Lambourne (who used brick-and-block construction, high-quality hardwood floors, and multiple fireplaces).
