Welcome to 9920 Capitol View Avenue—where timeless character, thoughtful updates, and an unbeatable location create a home that's as inviting as it is functional. Nestled beneath mature trees on a beautifully landscaped lot in the Capitol View Park Historic District—Montgomery County's first designated historic district—this beautifully maintained 4-bedroom, 2-bath home offers three finished levels of comfortable living. Located in Silver Spring (20910) on the Kensington border, you'll enjoy the charm and convenience of Downtown Kensington with the benefit of slightly lower Silver Spring taxes.
Natural light fills the inviting living room, highlighted by gleaming hardwood floors, recessed lighting, custom built-ins, and a cozy wood-burning fireplace. The adjoining dining room provides the perfect setting for everyday living and entertaining while opening onto an elevated rear deck overlooking the backyard and patio, creating a seamless indoor-outdoor living experience. The updated kitchen features Silestone quartz countertops, warm wood cabinetry, stainless steel appliances, a center island, and direct access to the outdoor living spaces.
The thoughtfully designed floor plan includes a main-level bedroom and full bathroom, offering exceptional flexibility for guests, a home office, or convenient one-level living. Upstairs, you'll find three additional bedrooms, including a spacious primary suite with abundant closet space, along with a second full bathroom serving the upper level.
The lower level expands the home's possibilities with a finished bonus room perfect for a recreation room, media room, home gym, or playroom. An oversized utility and workshop area provides exceptional storage, workspace, and exciting potential for future finished living space.
Outside, enjoy multiple outdoor living spaces, including the elevated rear deck and the private patio below, all surrounded by mature trees and lush landscaping that create a peaceful backyard retreat.
Perfectly positioned less than a half-mile from the Kensington MARC Station and historic Antique Row, this home is also just moments from Downtown Kensington's restaurants, coffee shops, Safeway, neighborhood parks, local favorite Continental Pizza, Ride-On bus service, Downtown Silver Spring, Wheaton Metro, Bethesda, and Washington, D.C. Families will also appreciate being served by highly regarded Oakland Terrace Elementary School, one of Montgomery County's most sought-after elementary schools.
