Incredible opportunity to own a beautiful 4BR/ 3BA rancher in sought-after Ellicott City! Beautifully landscaped exterior stairway leads to the covered front porch, perfect for taking in sunset views in a rocking chair! This home is situated on over half an acre of land, including a flat, fenced, usable backyard backed by mature trees—absolutely perfect for pets, families and entertaining. The chef of the family will adore the gourmet kitchen with its stunning 42” hickory cabinets, soft-close drawers, granite counters, gas stove, Italian porcelain tile floors, new SS microwave and dishwasher, double oven and triple sink. With two skylights, recessed and under-cabinet lighting and large sliding glass doors, there is always plenty of light no matter the time! Additional interior features include hardwood floors throughout entire main level, recessed lighting in common areas, newer Anderson windows and granite counters in all 3 bathrooms. Beautiful whitewashed brick fireplace is a cozy focal point of the home. Primary suite includes two closets and an updated attached bathroom with oversized jetted Whirlpool tub, recessed lighting, frameless shower and dual vanity. Downstairs you will find a partially-finished basement with a fourth bedroom/office, mud room, a full bathroom, and tons of storage space. The central A/C Carrier unit was replaced less than a year ago. Completing the lower level is the attached 2-car garage. Between that, the extra-wide driveway and the quiet private street, parking will never be an issue! To top it off, this home is located within walking distance of top Howard County public elementary and middle schools, and offers terrific access to Rts. 29, 70 and 100.
