Property Description

Architectural Charm Meets Modern Brilliance – 1104 Merwood Drive, Takoma Park
At first glance, 1104 Merwood Drive delights with the classic curb appeal of a traditional Cape Cod. But behind its timeless façade lies an unexpected and stunning surprise—a bold, two-story modern addition designed by acclaimed Washington, DC architect Travis Price. Clad in copper and wrapped in floor-to-ceiling windows, the rear expansion brings a sophisticated edge to this beautifully reimagined home, seamlessly blending historic charm with contemporary flair. Step inside to a warm and inviting traditional living room featuring a wood-burning fireplace as its centerpiece and rich hardwood floors that flow into the formal dining room. From there, prepare to be wowed as the home opens into a sun-drenched modern family room and thoughtfully designed chef's kitchen, complete with a barrel-molded ceiling, eat-in space, generous storage, and eco-friendly marmoleum flooring. The main level also includes a bedroom, a full bathroom, and a sunny den—ideal for a home office or creative retreat. Upstairs, you'll find three additional bedrooms and another full bath, along with the showstopping primary suite tucked within the modern addition. This serene space features dramatic windows, a walk-in closet, a stylish ensuite bathroom, and a private balcony overlooking the backyard. The finished basement offers a cozy family room, a storage room, and interior access to the attached garage and driveway. Step out from the family room addition to the deck and patio, where the fully fenced, level backyard invites play, gardening, or simply relaxing in a quiet, private setting.
