About 605 Elm Ave

Welcome to 605 Elm Avenue - A Truly Exceptional Newly renovated and expanded Home in the Heart of Takoma Park. This deceptively large home is nestled just down the street from Forest Park and a short stroll to Spring Park, Main Street Takoma, and the Takoma Park Co-op, 605 Elm Ave offers the perfect blend of thoughtful design, luxurious finishes, and everyday convenience in one of the area’s most beloved neighborhoods. Less than a mile to the Takoma Metro and moments from local favorites like Cielo Rojo, Spring Mill, and Soko Butcher, this location captures the very best of Takoma Park living. Inside, the home is anything but cookie cutter—every detail has been elevated with intention and high design. The airy main level features an open-concept layout with incredible natural light, new windows and doors, and a seamless flow between the spacious living and dining areas. A built-in dining nook with custom bench seating and a stylish coffee/bar area adds both charm and function. The kitchen is a true standout with honed Carrara marble countertops, white oak cabinetry, stainless Thor appliances, and ample storage—crafted for both everyday life and entertaining. Incredible main level floor plan ncluding three bedrooms and two full baths. The serene primary suite features a stunning en suite bath with Signature Hardware polished nickel fixtures, a walk-in shower with handheld sprayer, and gorgeous Moroccan-inspired tile. The hall bath is equally refined, featuring a deep soaking tub, marble-topped vanity, custom lighting, terracotta tile flooring, and beautiful tilework throughout. French doors off the living area open to a southern-facing screened-in porch, perfect for relaxing or entertaining while overlooking the expansive 11,000+ square foot yard. The fully finished lower level feels like a second full floor thanks to its nearly-at-grade positioning and oversized new windows. This light-filled space includes a spacious fourth bedroom with a luxurious en suite bath featuring designer tile, a dual vanity, custom lighting, and a large walk-in shower. A stylish wet bar—complete with marble counter, bar sink, Hansgrohe fixture, and built-in seating—makes the space ideal for guests, multi-generational living, or a second primary suite. There’s also ample room for a home office, gym, or recreation space, plus a beautifully tiled laundry room. Beyond its stunning aesthetic, this home offers peace of mind with all-new systems throughout: new roof, new windows and doors, new concrete basement slab, HVAC, plumbing, electrical, and appliances. Every inch reflects top-tier craftsmanship and timeless appeal. 605 Elm Ave is a rare opportunity—where high design, functionality, and location meet. A truly special home in the heart of Takoma Park.
