Escape the ordinary and discover your own private Howard County retreat. Built in 2018 and lovingly maintained by its original owner, this beautifully appointed 4-bedroom, 3.5-bath Colonial offers the perfect balance of privacy and modern comfort. Set on a peaceful wooded lot with no HOA or Columbia Association fees, this exceptional property provides a rare opportunity to enjoy a secluded setting while remaining just minutes from Maple Lawn, Downtown Columbia, shopping, dining, parks, and major commuter routes. The heart of the home is an expansive great room where the kitchen, dining, and living areas flow seamlessly together. The kitchen features an oversized peninsula, breakfast nook, and adjacent wet bar, while the living room is anchored by a cozy fireplace. The main level provides an optional fourth bedroom or office. A spacious laundry room and guest powder room complete the main level. Upstairs, a versatile loft provides the perfect space for a reading nook, homework station, play area, or additional sitting area. The spacious primary suite serves as a peaceful retreat with a beautifully appointed en-suite bath featuring a soaking tub, separate shower, dual vanity, walk-in closet, and an additional reach-in closet. Two generously sized bedrooms and a full hall bath complete the upper level. The finished lower level offers a spacious recreation room and a separate enclosed flex room with gliding doors, a full bathroom, and a private walk-up entrance—creating an ideal space for a home office, artist's studio, fitness room, hobby room, or creative workspace. A dedicated workshop and separate unfinished storage area provide exceptional functionality and room for projects, organization, and future needs. Step outside and experience the setting that truly sets this property apart. A welcoming covered front porch is the perfect place to enjoy your morning coffee while taking in the peaceful surroundings. An expansive rear deck overlooks the private backyard framed by mature trees, creating a serene backdrop for outdoor dining, entertaining, or evenings gathered around the fire pit. Pawpaw and plum trees, a planted herb garden, open green space, and a playground create an outdoor retreat that feels both welcoming and connected to nature. Additional highlights include surround sound, recessed lighting, a low-profile fire sprinkler system, 9-foot ceilings, a composite deck, and brand-new carpeting. Footers are already in place for a future attached garage, offering an opportunity to expand if desired. Offering the privacy and freedom of a secluded retreat while keeping Howard County's most sought-after destinations just minutes away, this exceptional property is a rare opportunity to enjoy the best of both worlds.
