    What's special

    Cozy wood-burning fireplaceOne-car attached garageScenic viewsNew interior paintFour-season sunroomFlexible living spaces
    One of a kind, set on nearly one acre in prestigious Highland, this thoughtfully renovated, unique Cape Cod offers flexible living spaces, scenic views, and a layout designed to support both everyday living and evolving lifestyle needs. The property combines privacy, space, character and accessibility in one of Western Howard’s most desirable settings, located within the award-winning River Hill school district. The main level showcases a truly unique layout with distinct yet connected living areas that seamlessly flow together. This impressive home is far from a typical cookie cutter house. The living room, dining room, and kitchen transition naturally into a light-filled sunroom, which serves as a spectacular focal point featuring European stained-glass windows and expansive rear-yard views overlooking the adjacent farm lot. The four- season sunroom overlooks a 3 tiered deck with a pergola and the backyard, creating a vibrant extension of the main floor that maximizes both versatility and natural light. A side entry with a drop zone enhances everyday functionality, while additional main- level rooms offer excellent options for an additional 4 th bedroom, in-law suite or dedicated work-from-home space, supported by a convenient full bath. The upper level includes three bedrooms and two full baths, highlighted by a primary suite with a private ensuite bath and a huge closet that could serve as a nursery or additional living space. Further expanding the home's functional footprint, the finished walk-out basement features a recreation room, an entertainment area with a bar, and an additional flexible room perfect for an office, hobby space, or home fitness studio. The home has been updated with major modern systems. These include an energy- efficient VRF heating and cooling system with backup oil heat, a roof approximately six years old, and windows approximately nine years old. Additional highlights include a one-car attached garage, new interior paint, a cozy wood-burning fireplace, and a brick patio overlooking the private, expansive lot. Known for its scenic landscapes and spacious properties, Highland offers a rare balance of rural character and commuter convenience. Enjoy close proximity to Maple Lawn shops and dining, River Hill Village Center, Clarksville Commons, and Columbia Town Center. With easy access to Route 32, Route 29, and I-95, you are perfectly positioned for a convenient commute to Baltimore, Washington, DC, and major employment centers like the Johns Hopkins Applied Physics Laboratory (APL) and Fort Meade/NSA. A truly out of the ordinary home, built with love, filled with love and ready for love is waiting for you. The seller prefers to sell the property As-Is. Mortgage savings may be available for buyers of this listing.
