A rare Victorian treasure nestled in Takoma Park’s Historic District and central village location near Red Line Metro station, city hall and community center, public schools, town library, farmers market, shops, and restaurants; built in 1886 and featuring authentic architectural details: soaring ceilings; recessed wood, raised, paneled, pocket, and etched glass doors; burnished wood floors; a variety of oval, skylit, leaded, and transom windows; bullseye moldings, medallions, and chair rails; wraparound porches and balconies; all carefully preserved and updated by long-time owners. Four finished levels consist of seven (7) bedrooms, four-and-one-half (4.5) bathrooms, which includes a 2-bedroom IN-LAW SUITE. Here is a genuine collector’s item whose lush perennial gardens and sweeping wooded lot instill a sense of calm and respite. A National Register of Historic Places Nomination states "...7105 Holly Avenue is a late vernacular treatment of the cottage style of the mid-19th century. The many gabled elevations and the carpenter's Gothic verge boards attest to this fact...". Today's amenities and features include central air conditioning; built-ins galore; ample storage; a chef's kitchen loaded with cabinetry and stainless appliances; main-level mudroom and laundry; a two-bedroom IN-LAW SUITE; and lush perennial gardens. Three levels of this home have generated as much as $775 per day in short-term rental income. Appraisal figures for finished square footage above and below grade: 4,127; unfinished below grade: 370. You’ll love living in this historic gem.

Arguably one of the most special houses ever offered in Takoma Park! You know the one, that storybook home perched high above Sligo Creek, the one you’ve driven by for years & wondered who lives there?   Behind its winding driveway, river-stone walls & canopy of trees sits a home that feels more like a private sanctuary, a historic circa 1900 manor wrapped in windows and character on over an acre of wooded land.  From the moment you arrive, it feels like you’ve entered another world. River-rock details, handcrafted woodwork, & a gently curving drive lead you up to a home that has quietly witnessed over a century of Takoma Park’s history, and hosted some of the world’s most creative culinary minds.  The owner, an internationally renowned kitchen designer for the world’s greatest chefs transformed the heart of the home into a professional-grade cook’s kitchen that doubles as a test kitchen & gathering place. Every surface, cabinet, and layout decision was designed with precision & intention - it’s a space that inspires both art & warmth. Over the years, countless acclaimed chefs and leading Washingtonians have cooked, collaborated, and celebrated here, in gatherings legendary to Takoma.  On the main level, light pours through walls of windows framing lush tree views from every angle. A striking monolithic fireplace anchors the living space, while intimate dining & lounging areas flow seamlessly into the kitchen & out toward the gardens.  Upstairs, the primary suite feels like a retreat in the clouds, complete with a Japanese-inspired spa bath & treetop views. Two additional bedrooms, each filled with warmth & natural light with striking aerial views of Sligo Creek, and a full Art Deco bath,  The finished walk-up loft crowns the home - an airy, flexible space ideal for a guest suite, studio, or meditation room - a true zen treehouse.  On the lower level, French doors & wraparound windows open to the grounds, bringing the outdoors in. This versatile space, a spacious living suite with private entrance made cozy with a gas fireplace, built-in bookshelves, & bedroom and with en-suite bath, offers opportunities for in-law suite, office or studio with abundant storage.  Outside, the property unfolds like a private park ringed by multi-colored, heirloom azaleas. The flat, sunlit area adjacent to the house, including a two-tiered patio overlooking Sligo Park, invites gardens, play, or outdoor entertaining, while the surrounding trees create a cocoon of privacy & calm. It’s an urban homestead, a rare opportunity to have space for multigenerational living, creative work, or small-scale farming right in Takoma.  Directly across the street, the Sligo Creek Trail winds through the forest, offering daily inspiration for walks, runs, and reflection. Equally striking to the home is the silence - the sounds of rushing Sligo Creek wafting up, hawks gliding, foxes darting…seemingly world’s away from the bustling nation’s capital that is one mile away and blocks to the charming downtown Takoma Park.   The history of this home reflects the craftsmanship and pioneering spirit that helped shape Takoma Park. Designed & built by master builder Harry Spencer, the property showcases exceptional stonework & fine carpentry that remain evident today. Spencer’s legacy includes many early Takoma residences and regional landmarks, from distinctive private estates to a historic Chesapeake chapel modeled after his work abroad. The home stayed within the original family for more than a century, cared for and cherished through multiple generations - a true testament to enduring quality and devotion to craft. This is more than a home - it’s a living work of art. 702 Sligo Creek Parkway is the kind of place that stops you in your tracks, the kind you’ve admired for years and dreamed might one day come to market. Now is your chance to own it. Ask agent about subdivision and development possibilities.
