Property Description

Feels like brand new: This recently reconstructed home East of Federal in College Park is essentially new construction and features both a swimming pool and a guest cottage. The former home in this location was taken down to just one wall and then rebuilt from the ground up! All permits and inspections were closed in 2025 ensuring peace of mind for the new homeowners. The main home has two bedrooms and two full bathrooms plus a bonus room that would make a perfect office or den. Split bedroom areas create privacy in this two-story home as one bedroom is downstairs, and one is up the gorgeous modern floating stairway to the upper level. Both levels have full baths to allow you to have one level as your primary and the other for guests. Arriving at 127 Auburn Drive, you are greeted by a welcoming covered front porch complete with a dramatic arched entry. You enter through glass double-doors into the open and airy great room with lots of natural light through the windows and doors, which are impact glass all throughout the home. Living areas have large neutral tile flooring for a clean open design. The kitchen is open and spacious with stainless steel appliances including a French Door refrigerator with bottom freezer, GE dishwasher and a GE gas range. You have lovely clean lines with white raised-panel cabinetry with large modern black hardware, black frosted glass doors on the upper cabinets and the countertops of a tasteful white Quartz. The range has a ventilation hood, and the backsplash of ceramic tile (styled like a tin ceiling) gives the whole area character. The expansive kitchen island is in contrasting teak-color cabinets by Omega Cabinetry and is perfect for conversations when entertaining guests. You have room for barstools on multiple sides. The downstairs primary suite boasts glass sliders out to the pool area and a walk-in closet. The ensuite full bath in a black-and-white theme has a wide vanity with storage and an open shower. It cleverly has a side door back to the living areas for use as a powder room as well on the main level. In addition to the den downstairs, there is also a nice laundry room with full-sized front-loading washer and dryer. The upstairs is one deep bedroom that runs for over 23'-the full depth of the house-and another full bath. This bath has a deep tub and shower combination and a floating vanity for storage plus an area for linens. Upstairs outdoor living areas are abundant! There is a Juliet balcony overlooking the street, a large rear deck overlooking the pool area, and an even larger rooftop area to the east side for more outdoor living space or future expansion. From 2019 through 2025, this homeowner took what used to be the main house-essentially a 1950s ranch home-and built new. While technically an addition, this labor of love really lives like new construction with everything done during the process (systems, roof, walls, windows, etc.) all new during the project which was completed and closed out in 2025. The metal roof gives the property that classic, tropical style. The two-zoned HVAC system is from 2022 and the home is fully insulated with a high R-Rating for energy efficiency. Between the newer construction, the insulation, the windows and the natural gas for cooking, you can really save on electricity. Out front, there is plenty of off-street parking including a circular drive as well as a long drive down the western side of the property that is long enough to accommodate an RV or boat. Landscape design is well thought out and manages to be quite tropical-including Banana Palms-even though it is xeriscaped to keep maintenance and water usage down. The 120' deep lot-at a spacious 7,800 square feet of land-allows for plenty of outdoor areas including a patio perfect for al fresco dining, a pool with generous surround for chaise lounges and a lovely lawn of artificial turf for low maintenance. The backyard is so very, very private and the poo
