Close in Country living: 3 bedroom, 3 full bath rambler in Silver Spring on just under an acre of land

Welcome to 508 Rockford Drive in Springbrook Forest,close in This 3 bedroom 3 bath brick rambler home sits on a lovely lot,just less than an acre of land. Home is on a mostly level lot. You may have seen or heard about this home before. It was originally listed in March 2008 for $575k,then relisted in November 2009 at $550k,before being rented in January 2009. It is now vacant and listed by Long & Foster at $499k.

The driveway leads to 2 covered parking spaces,with a carport and a 1 car garage. Right above the garage is a lovely porch for you to enjoy views of the trees. Porch makes a great area to relax in and a nice breakfast area.
You go up some steps to the front entrance. On the left is a kitchen which you can make into your own. It is in average condition.
There is a door from the ktichen to the porch. The kitchen also leads to the dining room which has hardwoods and continues into the living room with the hardwoods. There is a fire place in the living room area. The master bedroom has a skylight and a private full bath,which is in good usable shape. You may choose to upgrade it. Down the hall are 2 other bedrooms,one of which has a unique feature -its own private bath. There is also a 3rd full bath in the hallway.
The laundry is downstairs as is the entrance from the garage into the home. The downstairs is an average size.
This is a nice warm home,which one could make into his or her own as is and be happy or add on/tear down and build a home of his/her dreams.
It is priced ok based on scarcity of lot type, but not great based on a recent sale at 601 Rockford, also a rambler, which is on an ever so slightly smaller lot. 601 Rockford sold for $472k. When comparing the two homes,601 Rockford has 4 bedrooms and 2.5 baths. It also has a larger basement than 508 Rockford. To me 601 Rockford felt like more living space than 508 Rockford. But there aren't many homes on this size lot on the market. If 12043 Remington,which is 2 + acres and listed at
$499,900k sells before 508 Rockford,it will impact the price position of 508 Rockford.

If you or someone you know is interested in previewing the home,call me.
