Takoma (Takoma Park)

I thought this was interesting because it was specifically renovated to be a group home.

The owner sends Beautifully Renovated Group Home Seeking Group:

“You’ll love this gorgeous, spacious house (2,600 sq. feet) that has just been completely renovated! Available November 1st. Local landlord owned and maintained.

The house is in NW DC, a few blocks (10 minute walk) from Takoma metro (red line). It’s located on a large corner lot with lots of natural light, directly across a park and the playing fields of Takoma Recreation Center that includes tennis courts, baseball, basketball and swimming pools (free to residents).

If you are not familiar with Takoma, DC, it is a hidden gem in the city. It is just a few metro stops north from the bustling Columbia Heights, 14 Street NW, U Street and Petworth metros. Once you disembark you will notice the laid back and community vibe of this area. Plenty of restaurants are within a short walk and more are coming including a Bussboys and Poets. This area also boasts a year round Farmers Market. The market includes the freshest local, seasonal produce, breads, pasture raised meats, artisan cheese, eggs, baked goods and more from 23 farms located within 125 miles of Takoma.

The house has 6 bedrooms and 3 full bathrooms. 5 of the rooms are huge, and 4 of the bedrooms have en-suite shared bathrooms, i.e. they each have their own private entrance to a shared bathroom. The sixth bedroom is smaller than the rest but does not give the feel with the added window and skylight. The master bathroom has both a shower and a corner tub.

The enormous kitchen has granite counter tops and brand new stainless steel appliances – 2 large refrigerators, 2 dishwashers, a gas oven/stove, built-in microwave, plus a 2nd cooktop and a 2nd sink/garbage disposal in a central island.

On the ground floor there’s a large living room, a sun room that overlooks the park and playing fields across the street, and an outdoor deck and a patio. There is a separate den/living area upstairs, and a private balcony attached to the master bedroom. This is a quiet corner lot with tons of outdoor space.

The house has a top-of-the-line combination washer/dryer, central air, and newly refinished hardwood floors.

The driveway is big enough to fit two cars, plus plenty of no zone street parking.

Don’t miss seeing this fabulous house! Can be rented either as a group house, or to one family looking for lots of space. If rented by a group the rent division should vary based on the features of each space estimated at $700 for the smaller room, (2) at $775, (2) at $825 and $900 for the master. $4,800 total monthly rent. Water, Pepco and Washington Gas not included.

Open house this Sunday, October 6, from 12:00 p.m. to 1:30 p.m. Feel free to stick around and mingle to meet potential roommates. Group to apply as a whole. That being said we will be happy to create an email distribution list for the interested parties and facilitate additional viewings and/or meet and greets to help form a new group, so come solo if you’d like. This is a great opportunity to start your own group home.

$30.00 non-refundable application/credit check fee. $100.00 application deposit (refundable if not accepted) goes to your security deposit. Security deposit is one month rent. Utilities: gas, electric and water to be split equally between the number of people on premise.

Pet(s) considered on an a case by case basis (with all in agreement if a group home).
