Charming and cozy 2-storey home in one of Bowie's most desirable neighborhoods is SO MUCH BIGGER on the inside! Originally built as a 4 bedroom, 2 bath house, it now boasts 2383 square feet of living space PLUS a huge screen porch for nearly year-round outdoor living as well. There is plenty of off-street parking on the wide asphalt driveway, with a large carport that lets you remain under cover all the way to the front door. From there, you enter the spacious, sun-filled living room with hardwood floors and easy-to-use, cord-free window blinds. From the living room, pass through the glass-paned French doors into a home office or potential additional bedroom. Back in the living room, you might choose to check out the open plan kitchen, with a convenient pass-through opening over the kitchen sink into the sunny bonus room beyond, or step into the huge walk-in pantry with plenty of shelves for food and kitchen accessory storage! Step from the pantry into the large laundry room with side-by-side electric washer and dryer, but keep in mind that there is another laundry space upstairs no more carrying clothes up and down stairs! The kitchen includes a brand-new 25 cubic foot fridge/freezer with water and ice in the door, an electric range with ceramic cooktop and microwave hood, dishwasher and garbage disposal, and a large pantry cabinet with roll-out shelves. Also on the ground floor are two bright, neutral color bedrooms with easy-care hardwood floors and a bathroom with a large, tiled shower, plus two hallway closets one off the kitchen and one under the stairs. The ground floor includes three large family spaces a living room, a family room, and a large bonus room! Pass back through the kitchen, through the bonus room, and out the exterior door at the back of the house to enter the huge, screened porch with lighting and outlets for even more fun family gatherings! The home has two accessory buildings in the back yard, a large white shed with skylight and an even larger red shed, with a wide covered deck, that boasts lighting and power outlets for use as a workshop or for additional storage. The back yard is fully fenced for your peace of mind! Upstairs you will find a large bedroom with easy-care vinyl flooring and the much larger, luxuriously carpeted primary bedroom, separated by the bathroom, with its convenient tub/shower combo. From the primary bedroom, pass into an unexpected and very large RETREAT space, complete with the second electric washer and dryer and plenty of room for clothing storage! Wide, glass-paned French doors separate this space from the large home office or sanctuary beyond, and an exterior door with balcony and stairs into the back yard. This home has two separate HVAC units, one upstairs and one downstairs, allowing separate climate control and plenty of cool air for the hot summer days. And expect blazing fast Ethernet in this home with Fios fiber optic broadband! This house has SO MANY OPTIONS for customizing multiple spaces to YOUR needs!
