Property Description
This one-of-a-kind, thoughtfully remodeled, Craftsman-style residence offers the perfect blend of character, comfort and modern convenience — all set on a stunning 4.15 acre lot in sought-after Howard County. With nearly 5,000 square feet above grade, and an additional 2,200 square feet in the finished walkout lower level, there's room for everyone and everything.
Upon arrival, you'll notice the meticulous attention to detail — from the Hardie Plank Siding and brick walkways, to the professionally landscaped lighted grounds featuring expansive pastoral views. Enjoy quiet mornings or relaxing summer evenings on the Trex-style deck, or stone-floored screened-in porch, both overlooking the custom heated 20x40' pool. The pool features wide custom steps, surrounded by elegant brick pavers and white vinyl fencing. A separate fenced-in area nearby is ideal for pets.
Inside, this 5-bedroom 4.5-bath home is filled with charm and upscale touches. The welcoming foyer greets you with stained-glass windows, high ceilings and beautiful Craftsman railings. Hand-honed hickory floors run throughout much of the main level, adding warmth and timeless style.
The heart of the home — the kitchen — has been fully remodeled with warm white cabinetry, soft-close drawers, natural quartzite counters, a large walnut crowned center island and walk-in pantry with custom built-ins. A high-end GE Monogram propane range and stainless-steel appliances complete the space. The adjoining breakfast area to the screened-in porch, making indoor-outdoor entertaining seamless. Adjacent to the kitchen, the practical mudroom with hooks and storage keeps everything organized.
Step down into the inviting family room, featuring built-in shelving, a wood-burning fireplace and coffered ceilings — perfect for movie nights or cozy weekends. A private office with built-ins and a large closet, a sunroom flooded with natural light, a formal living room with a sealed propane fireplace, and a stylish powder room with ceramic flooring and black fixtures, completes the main level.
Upstairs, the Primary Suite is a true retreat — spacious and serene, with hand-honed hickory flooring, custom trim, casement windows, a custom large walk-in closet and a spa-like, remodeled primary bath featuring a freestanding soaking tub, tiled shower stall and dual vanities.
A private, second-ensuite bedroom or guest area includes a Juliet balcony and its own bath. Two additional bedrooms share a remodeled Jack-and-Jill bath, while another room/flex space is perfect as a playroom, study, or additional bedroom. Rounding out the 2nd level, a room currently serving as a craft area, includes a stainless-steel tub sink — plumbed and ready for a second washer and dryer, if desired.
The expansive walkout lower level offers a haven for recreation, hobbies or entertainment, complete with built-ins, a large open area for games and plumbing ready for your future bar or kitchenette. You'll also find a dedicated workout room, an activity room, a laundry area, utility space, two AO Smith propane water heaters, water treatment and radon mitigation systems, a dual zone propane heating system and two electrical subpanels.
Storage abounds, with large walk-in closets and custom built-ins throughout. Additional highlights include ceiling fans throughout, built-in speakers, a 2nd/rear staircase to the kitchen and custom window treatments, including plantation shutters and shades.
This extraordinary home seamlessly blends classic Craftsman charm with thoughtful, modern updates — all in a peaceful, picturesque setting. Whether you're hosting gatherings, enjoying quiet moments by the pool, or simply soaking in the serene views, every detail has been designed for your comfort and livability. Truly move-in ready and rich with character, this is a rare opportunity to own a standout property— certainly a home you don't want to miss!
