"What I Love About the Home" from the seller: We love the excellent and convenient location which sits at the border of Rockville and Gaithersburg, just minutes from RIO, Downtown Gaithersburg and Rockville Town Center. The home is also close to the Shady Grove Metro Station and the community's newly paved sidewalks make it an easy and pleasant walk. Quick access to ICC-200, I-370 and I-270 which makes commuting to DC, Virginia and Baltimore convenient. There is no HOA and the county provides services such as road maintenance, paving and snow removal at no additional cost. The home offers flexible living space with multiple rooms for different lifestyles- we once converted the room next to the primary bedroom into a luxury dressing room! The fully finished basement includes a bedroom and bathroom and a large space for activity. We used it for band rehearsals, gatherings with friends and dance practices. In the spring, the front and backyard gardens come alive with azaleas, lavender, roses, cherry tree, fig tree, Japanese maple and many other beautiful plants. The yard attracts doves, hummingbirds and cardinals, creating a peaceful and beautiful outdoor space!
