Property Description
3115 McComas Avenue, Kensington MD 20895
This charming all-brick home was built in 1945 and sits perched atop a corner lot. It features 3
bedrooms, 2 full bathrooms, and an attached oversize 1-car garage with workshop space.
As you enter the front door, the entry area opens to the family room featuring a functional gas fireplace.
The fireplace was recently refinished with white brick, marble tile hearth, and a custom mantel sourced
from local Kensington artisan, Abernethy Sticks. An elegant arch opens to the dining room with a new
mid-century modern chandelier. White brick carries over into the kitchen with an under-mount sink and
Corian countertops. The dishwasher was replaced in 2018 and the range is electric / convection but gas
lines are present if the new owner prefers a gas stove. The first floor bathroom was gutted and
remodeled in 2018 with new plumbing, marble tile on the floor, and classic white subway tile on the
walls and shower. Currently being used as an office, the smallest of the three bedrooms is also on the
first floor.
The second floor features a generously-sized master bedroom with two surprisingly large closets for a
home of this period and a modern ceiling fan above the master bed. The guest bedroom is directly
across the hall with a single closet. Both bedrooms are accented by original solid-wood doors with glass
handles. A new exhaust fan and water-efficient toilet were recently installed in the upstairs bathroom.
The attic is accessed via the second floor hall and was insulated in 2015.
The garage / basement area is unfinished and truly separates this home from others in the price range.
With the workbench removed, the parking area is 26.5 ft. x 11.75 ft. providing ample room for
automotive enthusiasts and DIY’ers. While a single vehicle fits with ample space, two compact cars
could fit inside the garage. Fresh paint provides a clean working area and the new LED light fixtures
provide abundant light. There are numerous 110v outlets and one 220v outlet. Alternatively, the next
owner could finish the basement and build equity by increasing square footage. The garage / basement
naturally stays around 70 degrees all year round.
The back yard features ivy-cladded privacy fencing and a concrete patio perfect for grilling. Terraced
garden beds in the side yard feature two illuminated posts for lounging in a hammock with your favorite
book. The exterior also features a concrete driveway with parking for three cars in addition to the
garage.
With the exception of the bathrooms and kitchen, every room in the house features hardwood flooring
that appears to be original. The home faces south and enjoys abundant sunshine but custom horizontal
blinds provide shade and privacy. The house is exceptionally sturdy and is built with double-brick
construction. The original floor beams, visible in the basement ceiling, are old growth wood with many
showing a live-edge. Kensington’s MARC train station, antique row, farmer’s market, Kensington
Heights Park, and several restaurants are all walking distance at less than one mile away.
UPDATED SQUARE FOOTAGE: 1456 sq. ft. Previous square footage taken from Maryland SDAT is
inaccurate.
