What would it be like to live on one of Hyattsville Hills' most sought-after—and most connected—streets?
On this stretch of 39th Avenue, neighbors know one another. Block parties and backyard movie nights are part of the rhythm of the street, front porches still matter, and the sense of community is one of the reasons people love living here.
Set at the top of the hill, 5707 39th Avenue occupies a rare double corner lot with an elevated setback, mature landscaping, generous green space, and a feeling of openness and privacy that's increasingly hard to find. The grounds have just been professionally refreshed and beautifully landscaped, with native plantings and a dedicated vegetable garden adding to an already exceptional setting.
The house itself delivers the character of a classic Hyattsville Hills home with many systems updated and modernized.
Inside are five bedrooms and three **fully renovated full bathrooms**, original hardwood floors, a wood-burning fireplace, gracious living spaces, and timeless architectural details. One bedroom and one of those renovated full baths are located on the main level—a particularly hard-to-find combination that creates real flexibility for guests, multigenerational living, a home office, or anyone who simply values having meaningful living space without relying entirely on the upper level.
And while the beautiful things are easy to notice, some of the smartest investments are the ones you can't immediately see.
The current owners have made substantial improvements focused on comfort, efficiency, and long-term ownership: energy-efficient replacement windows throughout, a new lower-level heat pump, new upstairs air handler, additional attic insulation, chimney and crown repairs with a new liner, and new appliances including the refrigerator, dishwasher, induction range, washer, and dryer. For buyers understandably thinking about the cost of maintaining a home, these are meaningful improvements that have already been addressed.
There's also remarkable flexibility beyond the home's traditional living spaces.
The unfinished lower level is unusually promising, with high ceilings, windows, natural light, and a private side entrance already in place—giving a future owner the opportunity to create additional living, work, fitness, guest, or creative space.
Upstairs, a semi-finished attic adds another entire layer of possibility. Use it for substantial storage, a second home office, yoga or fitness space, a creative studio, hobby room, or simply the kind of bonus space that's incredibly useful to have as life and needs change.
And then there's the attached garage, a genuine rarity in Hyattsville Hills and far more than simply a place to park a car. With an EV charger already installed, it can serve as secure parking, substantial storage, workshop, art studio, bike headquarters, gardening hub, or some combination of all of the above. A private driveway adds additional off-street parking.
All of this sits just blocks from the heart of Hyattsville. Walk to Franklin's, Vigilante Coffee, Maryland Meadworks, Streetcar 82 Brewing, Busboys and Poets, Sangfroid, the Trolley Trail, and nearby Riverdale Town Center, with convenient access to Metro, major commuter routes, and Washington, DC.
5707 39th Avenue offers something increasingly difficult to replicate: an exceptional piece of property in an established neighborhood, warmth and character, significant investments already made, and enough flexibility to keep evolving with the people who live here.
The house is ready. The next chapter is yours to make! Come experience one of Hyattsville's BEST streets and the amazing community surrounding it!
