Price Cutter: Takoma Park Home With Secret Room: Figure 1

A little over a month ago, we featured a three-bedroom log cabin-like home in Takoma Park with a rather unique feature: a “secret room” built into its top floor. The listing agent explained that when the seller’s daughter turned ten, it became clear that she didn’t like being so close to her parents. So a local architect came in and raised the roof and converted what had been a storage closet on the top level into a room filled with light and its own deck. Another interesting feature of the listing is that there is a corn/wood pellet burning stove that supplements the home’s traditional heating system. Neither of these features has attracted a buyer yet, and the listing price on the home was recently reduced by $25,000.
