Property Description

Country calm in the heart of Ellicott City. With more than 2,700 square feet of living space on nearly a half-acre backing to forest conservation, this custom-built colonial is tucked between the charm of Historic Old Ellicott City and the convenience of Montgomery Road. Designed to take advantage of its natural setting, meticulously maintained, and recently updated, the home rests in a clearing with wooded surroundings, offering peace and privacy rarely found in such a central location. Inside, you'll find newly refinished hardwoods and neutral paint on the main level. The inviting kitchen features a U-shaped layout with new quartz countertops, light wood cabinetry, stainless appliances, and an expansive breakfast bar that opens to the breakfast and family rooms. Skylights brighten the family room, where a wood-burning fireplace and large picture windows frame backyard views, and French doors open to a stone courtyard. A formal dining room includes a large bay window with sweeping views, while a step-down living room adds another comfortable gathering space. The generous recreation room offers remarkable flexibility with built-in shelving and open space for hobbies, play, exercise, or even a main level office or bedroom, and French doors lead to the large deck. The laundry room and powder room complete this level with comfort and convenience. Upstairs, the generously sized primary suite is a tranquil retreat with a fireplace, private balcony, and large walk-in closet. The accompanying bath includes a skylight, step-in shower, free-standing tub, and dual vanities. Two additional bedrooms, an office loft with bedroom potential, and a second full bath with skylight complete this level. The lower level provides storage and future expansion potential with a rough-in for a full bath, and the walkout connects the magnificent magnolia, butterfly bushes, and front gardens with the serene mature trees, open clearing, and delightful landscaped pond in back. A spacious greenhouse with water access and potting benches, along with in-ground sprinklers, keep the gardens thriving. Notable updates to the home include a 2019 roof with skylights, replacement gutters with leaf system, newly refinished hardwoods (2025), and quartz kitchen countertops (2025). Enjoy all the area offers with Historic Old Ellicott City minutes away, plus Patapsco Valley State Park and Meadowbrook Park Gate nearby. Commuting is a breeze with Routes 29, 100, and 95 close at hand, and MARC service into Washington, DC from Dorsey Station. With its wooded backdrop, versatile living spaces, and thoughtfully designed gardens, this home offers a lifestyle both grounded in nature and connected to everything around it. Forest behind you. Everything else ahead.
