Set on a level full acre at the end of a quiet no-through street, this well-maintained rancher is simply beyond the ordinary, pairing peace, privacy, and CPRA-free living in one remarkable setting. With up to 4 bedrooms, 2.5 baths, and more than 2,000 finished square feet, this home offers the ease of main-level living and a finished walkout lower level that adds flexibility for a variety of needs. From the covered front porch with slate patio, enter a bright living room featuring a large bay window and a wood-burning fireplace with brick surround and hearth. The living room flows seamlessly into the separate dining room and adjacent kitchen, which offers ample cabinet and counter space, a breakfast bar, a window above the sink, and vintage cabinetry in remarkable condition that reflects the home's original character. A mudroom connecting the home and oversized attached garage provides everyday convenience and direct access to the rear patio and yard beyond. The primary bedroom includes a recently updated attached full bath, a feature rarely found in homes of this era. Two additional well-sized bedrooms, a renovated hall bath, and original hardwood floors under the carpeting complete the main level. The walkout lower level features a spacious recreation room with sliding glass doors to the brick patio and lush lawn beyond. A potential fourth bedroom, half bath, and cedar closet provide additional living space, while the unfinished portion includes a large laundry room, utility room, and a partially framed storage area that’s perfectly suited for a future home office, workshop, exercise room, hobby space, or additional finished living area. Outside, the one-acre homesite is the feature that truly sets this property apart. Beautifully landscaped planting beds frame the front of the home, while the expansive rear yard offers an abundance of open green space bordered by mature trees. The oversized attached garage, parking pad, and long driveway provide parking for multiple vehicles, while replacement windows throughout and meticulous ownership records reflect the care this home has received over the years. Hickory Ridge Village Center is just minutes away for daily conveniences, while Columbia's extensive trail system, parks, shopping, dining, and entertainment are all within easy reach. Convenient access to Routes 29, 32, 100, I-95, and the Broken Land Park & Ride simplifies commuting to Fort Meade, NSA, APL, Baltimore, Washington, and beyond. Whether you're looking for room to grow, room to gather, or simply room to breathe, this is an opportunity that seldom comes along in Columbia.
