About 518 Oglethorpe St NW

BACK ON THE MARKET, BUT IT WON'T BE HERE LONG! THE LENDER HAS AGREED TO A SHORT SALE AT THE LIST PRICE. A gem of a neighborhood. This long time family property sits on a tranquil tree lined street in the heart of Brightwood. It has been cared for over the years but definitely could use some updating throughout. The home is partially detached and has a cute yard ready for a little love. There is a rear carport for off-street parking. The property has great size overall. It boasts a true dining room, office and living room on the main level. The amount off natural light in the home is honestly unmatched. The upper level has four good sized bedrooms. There is a basement with a separate rear entrance that can function as a rental property to generate some extra income with a small renovation. The home is ready for your personal touch! Some thoughtful upgrades and a little TLC could make this your perfect family home. A stones throw away from the some exceptional coffee shops and restaurants. The Kennedy Street corridor is home to a few amazing restaurants. Additionally it's located just a short drive to downtown Silver Spring, all that Petworth has to offer and the new vibrant Parks at Walter Reed. Seize your chance. You will not be disappointed. Check out the comps. There is plenty of opportunity at this price. Don't miss out. Additionally, the property was just appraised at over asking!
