Property Description
The upper level features three spacious bedrooms, including a comfortable primary suite with its own full bathroom, plus a common hall bathroom . The main level is designed for entertaining and everyday living, featuring an open-concept floor plan, a stylish chef-inspired kitchen, and a convenient powder room. This home also offers a dedicated home office that provides the perfect space for working remotely, studying, or creating a private workspace away from the main living areas.
One of the home's standout features is the fully finished lower level, which offers incredible flexibility for extended family, guests, or potential rental income. The basement includes two bedrooms, a full kitchen, a full bathroom, and its own private entrance, creating the feel and functionality of a separate living space. For the savvy homeowner, this could be an excellent opportunity to generate additional income!
Step outside and you'll find a private stone patio, off-street parking, and plenty of outdoor space for entertaining, weekend cookouts, relaxing, or enjoying time with family and friends. Whether you're looking for room to grow, space for extended family, or an opportunity to create an income-producing component, this home offers options that are hard to find.
The location is another major advantage. You're approximately a 10-minute walk to Fort Totten Metro Station, giving you convenient access to the Green and Red Lines and making commuting throughout DC and the region much easier. Fort Totten has long been identified as an important transit-oriented growth area, with plans and investment focused on additional housing, retail, parks, pedestrian improvements, and community amenities.
And the surrounding area is continuing to transform.
Just a short distance away, The Parks at Walter Reed has evolved into a major mixed-use neighborhood with housing, retail, green space, community amenities, and a Whole Foods Market. The neighborhood also puts you within easy reach of shopping, dining, parks, recreation, major commuter routes, Fort Totten, Takoma Park, Petworth, and the Maryland border. This is the type of location that offers the best of both worlds.
5274 Chillum Pl NE isn't simply a house—it's a home with flexibility, income potential, outdoor space, transit access, and a location positioned to benefit from continued neighborhood growth. Come see why this one deserves to be at the top of your list!
