About the Listing REFC2 - 3027818
Tucked on a quiet cul-de-sac steps from Sligo Creek trails, this 1940s colonial offers four bedrooms and four baths across three finished levels, with a spacious front porch framed by a color-changing Japanese maple and views into a mature tree canopy. Greenery is visible year-round through almost every window; upstairs feels like a treehouse. | The renovated kitchen features quartz countertops, a new gas range (2025), new refrigerator (2024), dishwasher, recessed lighting, and bar seating, opening to sun-filled living and dining spaces with original hardwood floors, crown molding, and a fireplace. A main-level bedroom with built-in bookcases and its own half bath, along with a heated sunroom, provide flexible space for a home office, studio, or reading room. | Upstairs, you will find three bedrooms and two full baths - a rarity in homes in the area - one recently updated. The finished lower level adds a family room with new decorative ceiling, a half bath, laundry room with new high-efficiency washer (2020) and dryer (2022), and walk-out access to the driveway. One-car garage and storage shed. Off-street parking. | This home has been extensively and carefully maintained. Major updates include: new roof (2017), new furnace (2020), new water heater (2024), blown insulation and attic sealing throughout (2018), modern LED fan/light fixtures throughout (2025), updated basement ceiling (2025), luxury vinyl flooring in basement and laundry (2020), and exterior woodwork repainted (2023). | The property sits elevated on a hill with low flood risk and lovely views of the surrounding parks and trails. The front porch has space for many people to lounge and is one of the most commented-on features of the home; it faces the Japanese maple and the neighborhood’s mature tree canopy. The backyard offers a shaded stone patio with mature trees, and a tire swing. | 617 Lycoming sits on a no-through-traffic street in North Hills, one of Silver Spring’s most walkable and community-oriented neighborhoods. Walking distance to six parks, Sligo Creek trail for walking, biking, and running, Acorn Hill Waldorf school, a neighborhood corner store, and a barber shop. A bus stop sits at the foot of the street, with easy access to Metro, I-495, and major commuter routes. 30-minute non-rush-hour drive to downtown DC and all three major airports (BWI, Dulles, Reagan). | The neighborhood has an unusually active and welcoming community culture: annual summer block party, seasonal festivals, multiple community gardens and Little Free Libraries, an active Civic Association, and a weekly food truck at the park across Brunett. A native plant neighborhood garden was installed on the street in 2025, led by Lycoming residents and the North Hills Civic Association.
