About this home

You'll fall in love with the serene location of this beautiful colonial situated on a cul-de-sac in a desirable Ellicott City neighborhood just steps away from Columbia's beloved walking paths. The open family room and eat-in-kitchen give way to a sizable two-tiered deck and adjoining screened porch overlooking the large green yard and wooded scenery ~ perfect for relaxing and entertaining. Upstairs you'll find four bedrooms including a spacious master suite highlighted by a walk-in-closet, upgraded master bath, and surprising bonus space large enough for both an office and exercise area. The finished lower level walks out to a peaceful patio and features a generous finished recreational space, full bathroom, workshop, and cedar closet. After a day walking the trails, splashing at the community pool, or just playing around the . 65-acre lot, enter through the side porch or two car garage into the convenient mudroom with laundry. Recent improvements to this well-maintained home include a new heat pump, new granite countertops, all new kitchen appliances, and freshly painted cedar siding.
