DOWNTOWN SILVER SPRING CONTEMPORARY CONDO LIVING

Downtown Silver Spring was designated an official “Arts and Entertainment District” in 2002. The District provides incentives to attract artists and entertainment venues to the Arts and Entertainment District, providing tax benefits plus financial assistance by the Maryland Economic Development Assistance Fund. Such development has attracted the likes of Discovery Communications, The AFI Film Institute which hosts the 5 day AFI SilverDocs international documentary film festival each year in June, The Fillmore and much more. For anyone who is interested in arts, film, music and other creative pursuits, whether writing, films, sculpture, painting, music, etc…Downtown Silver Spring is a dream come true.

22

FINE PORTFOLIO / NO TWELVE

For residents of Silver Spring, the Arts and Entertainment District provides an energetic, dynamic and exciting place to live, play and work just outside their front door. With Metro nearby and Washington, DC just across the street, Downtown Silver Spring is truly a vibrant epicenter of the Maryland arts and entertainment universe, a mecca for the artistically minded and a haven for residents who crave a culturally rich, vibrant urban oasis! Neil Bacchus, Partner with The Bacchus Group at Long & Foster Real Estate in Bethesda, MD, who has specialized in selling and listing Condominiums in the area for the last 20 years, remembers when Downtown Silver Spring was much different. Having grown up nearby, just down the street in Takoma Park, Neil still remembers when the streets were lined with auto repair shops, when they actually produced soft drinks in the Canada Dry Building, and Heidi Bakery owned by Giant Food was where the new Montgomery College is on the corner of Georgia Avenue and East West Highway. Of course, Crisfield’s seafood restaurant is still an institution in Silver Spring. Today there are numerous modern contemporary condos that line East West Highway and the surrounding area. They are gorgeous, contemporary units that offer residents a modern home in the middle of the new and exciting Downtown Silver Spring and just blocks from the Metro,


FEATURE COMMUNITY / SILVER SPRING, MD

IN AN URBAN ARTS & ENTERTAINMENT MECCA

Whole Foods, Theaters, ice skating rink and of course, just blocks from the District of Columbia. The revitalization of the Downtown Silver Spring area brought with it a new construction condo boom of sorts. The new, modern condo developments were a welcome change that offered residents and newcomers exciting new places to live in the revitalized urban area. Neil and his group have helped many clients purchase many of these Silver Spring condos over the years and say that, Downtown Silver Spring offers everything that you would expect in Bethesda or Chevy Chase but at a more affordable price point. Today, Silver Spring is an amazing place to live, especially if you are interested in a contemporary city condo without the inflated price. The forthcoming Purple Line, slated to run from Bethesda to the Silver Spring Transit Center and all the way past the University of Maryland will bring further access from Downtown Silver Spring to all parts of the city and surrounding areas, including the MARC, AMTRAK trains and all major Bus Routes to carry people wherever they need to go, all without getting into a car.

There are so many great choices. From The Crescent, The Aurora, The Silverton in the old Canada Dry building, 8045 at Silver Spring Metro, Argent Condos, LOFT 24, MICA Condominiums, Orion, and Silver Place. Right now, Sale Prices for condos in the downtown Silver Spring area range from $219,900 at the low end to around $579,000. Downtown Silver Spring is one of the last major urban areas attached to Washington, DC that is still relatively affordable. Neil predicts that the Silver Spring market prices will continue to rise and that demand will grow quickly over the next decade. People are looking for a home where they can “live, work and play� all within close proximity and with a myriad of transportation options and Silver Spring certainly delivers. Single professionals, young families, students, government types working in DC, the recently retired, empty nesters and people looking to downsize from the big house will all find something to love about living in downtown Silver Spring.

For more information about downtown Silver Spring or Condo Living, Neil or Laura can be reached at www.thebacchusgroup.net.

COVER FEATURE

Built in the early 1930′s for use as a doctor’s personal residence and office, 9300 Colesville Road represents one of the downtown Silver Spring area’s most visible and architecturally significant addresses. Featuring a combination of dynamic entertaining space and storybook Tudor-style architecture, uses range from a distinguished 6-Bedroom, 4-Bath Home with in-law suite, to a residence mixed with home office ideal for a doctor, attorney, accountant, insurance agent, or similar professional looking to own their own office while using the balance of the building either as a personal residence, or for investment and cash flow by assuming existing leases and tenants in place with current owner.

With seven distinct entry points, ample parking for up to 12 vehicles, and close proximity to the beltway, downtown Silver Spring, Washington DC, and the Metro’ s Red Line, the property makes an ideal large family home, while also offering the built-in flexibility of a home office and a separate in-law suite with private entrance for aging loved ones or family on extended stay in the area. The currently leased portions of the building generate gross annual rental revenues of $80,340 with a much higher potential upside depending on use of the property. The property is perfect for a myriad of uses from an assisted living facility to a suite of professional offices. Offered at $1,099,000

ARLINGTON, VA/WILLIAMSBURG

SOLD | $1,425,000

The old adage, “if you don’t ask, you don’t get” applies to my buyers’ experience in purchasing this beautiful home. Although listed for more than their budget, through incredible timing and careful negotiations, I helped my clients get this home at a price with which they were very comfortable. Situated on a cul-de-sac in desirable north Arlington, the landscaping was timeless and charming.

FOR SALE | $1,575,000

ARLINGTON, VA/CHERRYDALE

Currently for sale, I was hired by the sellers to work on this, our fifth home sale together. The traditional outside and contemporary inside give this home a definite point of view.

ARLINGTON, VA/GOLF CLUB MANOR

TABLESCAPES

It’s my favorite time of year, stores are putting out their Christmas decor and filling up with shoppers, there is a chill in the air, and you can even order a pumpkin spice latte from Starbucks, the holiday season is officially here! This is the time that we dust off of our Christmas decorations and start thinking about how we are going to decorate. One of my favorite things to create for the holidays are tablescapes. A tablescape is a great way to step out of the box and not just use the same old china. When creating a tablescape, you have the opportunity to create the atmosphere & style of your choosing. Here are my top 4 must-have design ideas that will make your holiday table setting, the talk of the party! Tell a color story: Be consistent with a color throughout the space. You don’t have to use the usual red and green color palette. Try out a neutral color or go monochromatic with certain shades and use it generously in the space, from the table top to the rest of the home. For example incorporate the same color scheme on your front door wreath, tables-

cape, and garland on your stairway. Have the look link together so you have a constant color story throughout your space. Layer your look: Sometimes it all starts with an inspirational piece to get your design wheels turning. Start with a table runner or tablecloth and then incorporate chargers, placemats, candlesticks flowers, and candles. Create a look with layering heights and dimension. You can add Christmas ornaments or even use favors and place cards for an extra pop. Layering is a great way to add warmth to a space. A touch of sparkle: Integrating gold into your tablescape really adds a touch of glamour to your look. A little bit of sparkle goes along way. From napkin holders, to a gold ribbon on center pieces, gold is complimentary to other colors and adds an elegance to a look. Natural elements: A great addition to create an inviting and welcoming tablescape is including natural elements such as pine-cones, fruit, branches, plants and flowers. Bringing natural elements into your table setting adds texture and depth to your look. You can put apples in a glass bowl for a pop of color, or add branches to a bouquet of flowers to make the look more rustic and lush.
