Do you enjoy watching home design shows that turn people’s houses into the homes of their dreams? Have you had the itch to hop on the home-design train too? Well, here’s your chance! A Diamond in The Rough: This home features a great layout to make that dream possible: four, potentially five bedrooms, hardwood floors on the main and upper levels, a family room with a wood-burning fireplace against a full brick wall and harth off of the kitchen, main level home office or library, and main level laundry/mud room with access to the carport. The lower level holds the ideal space for entertaining with a recreation room, an exercise/theater room, a half bath that can easily be finished into a full bath, and walkout access to a patio. The expansive deck off of the family room offers access to the backyard as well as the perfect space to relax and enjoy the outdoors. Did I mention there is a 4th level walk-up attic that can be finished into a bonus room with a cedar closet and full-size double window allowing for lots of natural light? The HOA Fee is the Columbia Association Fee, which allows all of the Columbia Association amenities to be made available to you. This great commuter location is convenient to Baltimore, Fort Meade, Annapolis, and Washington DC. This house is ready to receive your own personal touch to turn it into your dream home. Tour it today with the exciting prospect of customizing a home of your very own! More pictures coming soon so keep an eye on this listing!
