xxxx Kempton Road is one of those custom-built homes that one would never believe even exists in Lanham. I cannot recount how many times a visitor to my house was shocked that such structures even existed in Lanham. I certainly know that I was very lucky to find it's kind in the area when I bought her in July xxxx (13 years ago). 
xxxx Kempton Road is a very distinguished and pretty whitish-grey rambler sitting on 0.75 acres on a hill at the end of a culdesac. In the throws of Fall/Winter, one can see the Washington monument through the trees in the backyard. In the summer you can see the fireworks from the Washington monument. This house - the only one of its kind in the neighborhood (and arguably the only one of its kind in Lanham), was custom-built and developed by John Kagle (ex-construction magnate now in his nineties) for his personal use in xxxx. John also custom-built the lovely house next door for his younger brother and the sprawling rambler down the road on the corner of Martins & Kempton roads (consequently, these 3 homes are the only homes still with 'In-Ground' swimming pools on Kempton Road). In fact, John also built many of the more basic houses in the neighborhood, hence many give him credit for developing the entire neighborhood known as "Martins Woods". John was literally the King of the Hill, because the whole neighborhood would gather intermittently at his house (my house) for parties throughout the 60's and well into the 70's.
When I bought this lovely house in xxxx, she was a 4 bedroom, 2 living room, 3 fireplace, 2.5 bathroom, 1 kitchen, 1 dinning room. 1 Laundry room?.house, with a pretty expansive attic and an equally expansive basement. However - I have made major upgrades to the house since. For example, I added about 700SqFt of living space to the house by converting the attic to an open play room (where my pool table sat) complete with windows, ventilation, AC etc. I also converted the basement into it's own independent module/apartment by adding two more bedrooms and another full bathroom with a functional kitchenette. There was already a living room down in the basement with its own fireplace, and a separate entrance. Consequently - xxxx Kempton Road now boasts of approx. xxxx Sqft of living space: A 7 bedroom, 3 living room, 3 fireplace, 3.5 bathroom, 1.5 kitchen, 1 dinning room, 1 siesta play-room, house with a 46ft by 20ft (14 feet deep) in-ground pool, and a large 2 car garage. The house also comes with a comprehensive state-of-the-art ADT alarm system and an expansive amazing backyard ideal for parties and soirees. 
On balance - this house has approximately xxxx Sqft of living space. Lots of trees, just beautiful!
The location of this house is another heavy selling point. In light of all the developments in recent years in PG county, for example there is now a Costco less than a 5 minute drive away, and most of the service businesses in DC have now built annexes in PG county, pretty close to my house. The house is less than a 10 min drive from 2 different metro stations 1) New Carrollton - Amtrak/ Green Line Metro & 2) College Park - Orange Line Metro. In addition - the house is less than 3 mins away from the Balt/Wash parkway and the Balt/Wash beltway, and also less than a 10 min drive from both Washington DC and College Park MD.
She is on the market now for $499K, and available for sale immediately. Please call my agent Lee Spurlock at 240-286-xxxx for further inquiries or for an inspection. I can be easily reached at Akinsehinwa@yahoo.com (or call xxxxxxxx29) if you have further questions. 
Thanks (and good luck).
