Description
Welcome to 221 Nicholson Street NE in Riggs Park! This brick semi-detached home features three levels, two bedrooms, two full bathrooms, paid-off solar panels, and off-street parking. The solar panels can help lower electric bills and may provide extra income through solar energy credits. There is no solar lease payment.
Off the kitchen, a bonus room provides extra space for relaxing, dining, or working from home. The walkout basement has a full bathroom, walk-in closet, and laundry area, with flexible space for a family room or hobbies. The updated kitchen features wood cabinets, a decorative tile backsplash, and a gas stove. The rear deck is a great spot to relax or enjoy an outdoor meal. An 8-by-8-foot Amish-built storage shed provides extra space for tools, gardening supplies, and outdoor equipment.
Updates include six energy-efficient, double-pane replacement windows, a Lennox 90% efficient gas furnace with central air conditioning installed in 2016, and a 40-gallon gas water heater replaced in 2022. The upstairs bathroom includes a walk-in tub with built-in seating.
Nearby conveniences include Fort Totten Metro, the Lamond-Riggs/Lillian J. Huff Library, Walmart, and the Riggs-LaSalle Community Center. Minutes from the DC/MD line and major roads.
*** Extra living space, useful updates, and paid-off solar panels make this home a wonderful opportunity to add your own personal touch!***
