About 6501 Poplar Ave
6501 Poplar Avenue presents a rare opportunity to acquire a 5.17-acre parcel in the heart of Takoma Park, just 0.5 miles from the Washington, DC border. Currently utilized as a senior daycare facility, the existing buildings have also been used as a school and apartments. While interior rehabilitation is needed, the property is one of the largest parcels in the immediate area and is zoned R-60 (Single-Family Detached), offering significant long-term value for a developer evaluating subdivision, assemblage, or future entitlement strategies. With immediate proximity to Metro, major commuter routes, retail amenities, and highly regarded Montgomery County schools, this site combines scale, location, and zoning fundamentals that are increasingly difficult to replicate inside the Capital Beltway. All information is compiled from sources deemed reliable. Buyers are encouraged to conduct their own independent due diligence, inspections, and consultations with professional advisors.
