A hidden gem in Montgomery County! This classic ranch-style home offers the rare opportunity to own a well-built property with incredible potential in one of the area’s most desirable regions. Tucked away on a peaceful half-acre+ lot in Damascus, Maryland, this home has been lovingly owned by the same family since 1992—a true testament to its comfort and livability. The main level offers a traditional and practical floor plan, with two generously sized bedrooms and two full bathrooms, along with a large living room that flows seamlessly into the dining area and kitchen. Just off the back of the home, you’ll find an incredible bonus: a conditioned four-season room, perfect for enjoying the changing seasons in total comfort. Step outside to your expansive rear deck, offering tranquil views of the surrounding greenery and the perfect space for entertaining, relaxing, or simply soaking in the quiet serenity. Downstairs, the finished lower level offers tremendous flexibility, featuring a third and fourth bedroom and third full bathroom along with a half bathroom—ideal for guests, in-laws, or a potential rental setup. You’ll also find a large workshop/garage space under the home that’s perfect for any craftsman, hobbyist, or someone looking to create additional finished square footage. Whether you envision a home gym, studio, or extended living space, the lower level offers the canvas to make it your own. While the home is entirely livable, it does need cosmetic updates—making it a perfect opportunity for a buyer to put in some sweat equity and build real value. The structure is solid, the layout is smart, and the land is a rare find—especially in Montgomery County, where lots of this size are few and far between. With no HOA restrictions and a strong sense of privacy, this property is an ideal investment for a variety of buyers—whether you’re a first-time homeowner, someone looking to downsize into one-level living, or an investor looking to bring new life into a home with character. Opportunities like this don’t come around often. Come see the potential and make this house your own! Property is being sold AS-IS

AR
Agricultural Reserve Zone
The intent of the AR zone is to promote agriculture as the primary land use in areas of the County designated for agricultural preservation in the general plan, the Functional Master Plan for Preservation of Agriculture and Rural Open Space, and other current or future master plans. The AR zone accomplishes this intent by providing large areas of generally contiguous properties suitable for agricultural and related uses and permitting the transfer of development rights from properties in this zone to properties in designated receiving areas; Agriculture is the preferred use in the AR zone. All agricultural operations are permitted at any time, including the operation of farm machinery. An agricultural use cannot be restricted on the grounds that it interferes with other uses permitted in the zone but uses that are not exclusively agricultural in nature must satisfy additional use standards or the conditional use approval process; The intent of the child lot option in the AR zone is to facilitate the continuation of the family farming unit and to otherwise meet the purposes of the AR zone.
