There is so much to love about this charming brick ranch home offering an open layout, a large 2 car garage and located in the sought-after Sebring community situated on a lovely half an acre lot! Less than two miles away is all that Columbia Town Center has to offer, yet this home is tucked into a quiet community and surrounded by mature trees. Imagine being so close to Howard Community College, Lake Kittamaqundi, first-rate restaurants, medical facilities, Howard County Public Library, and arts venues while being able to turn a corner and escape the bustle into this lovely neighborhood. A slate tile patio graces the entrance to this home. Once inside, you will immediately notice the open floor plan of the main living area: kitchen, living and dining room. Wood floors gleam throughout the main level. Stainless steel appliances including a gas range, granite countertops, an overhang section for bar stool seating and ample counter and cabinet space are highlights of the kitchen. Off of the kitchen is a bonus room/office and a mudroom with laundry fixtures. The owner’s suite features an en suite bathroom with dual sinks. Two other bedrooms share the hall bath. The lower level is nicely finished with recessed lighting in the recreation room and completed by a fourth bedroom and a full bath. New roof and replacement windows are other notable features. Walk out from the dining area onto the new deck overlooking a tree-lined, grassy backyard. Surrounding this open space are mature maple trees to provide fall colors, and holly trees for winter green. This home is an out-parcel lot with no HOA yet walking distance to Merriweather Pavilion, the Columbia Mall, an abundance of dining options and all of the Columbia trails. Don’t let this charming brick home get away! Conveniently located near major commuter routes 29, 32, and 175. * * Please view 3D Tour * *
*Taxable value of land and structures on it ("additions") is determined regularly by local assessors and does not affect market price.
