215 E Franklin Ave, Silver Spring, MD 20901

Welcome to this 1928 well-cared for 2-story bungalow, likely a Sears Craftsman ‘Conway’ model, in the sought-after neighborhood of Indian Spring Park. This home has been lovingly maintained (same owners since 1994) and expanded over the years to provide a wonderful flow and generous room sizes. The main level features the kitchen, hardwood flooring in the living room and separate dining room, a wood burning fireplace with oak mantle in the living room, two carpeted bedrooms, and a renovated full bathroom. The windows have been updated with cordless, light-filtering, bottom-up honeycomb window coverings. The kitchen addition, which created the separate dining room, comes with ample white cabinets, granite counter tops with ceramic backsplash, stainless steel appliances (5 burner Maytag Gas Stove, Maytag stainless inside/out) and a sliding glass door exiting to a rectangular deck for easy summer entertaining. The upper level has updated carpeting, two additional bedrooms with updated closets, and a shared, updated full bathroom. The 'bonus' room in the middle of the upper level is a very special addition, filled with sunlight. The lower level provides a spacious family room with new carpeting, a large separate laundry/storage room, additional storage underneath the steps, and a separate utility room for the furnace and hot water heater. In 2016, owners updated the two bathroom, kitchen flooring and new carpet on the main and upper level. Owners installed a state of the art French drain in 2018, in the lower level to provide peace of mind. The roof was entirely replaced in 2022 including, new gutters, trim, new shed and new concrete parking pad . The landscaped lot offers privacy being surrounded by mature trees and shrubs. Other areas offering grass and space for your gardens. Ample parking in front of the home with an expanded driveway for additional multi-car, off-street parking. Further enjoy your outdoor living space by furnishing your full-width front porch! Quick and easy access to public transportation, major commuter routes, 495 and Silver Spring Metro.
