Welcome to 1317 Birch Avenue, a beautifully maintained 3-bedroom Colonial tucked into the quiet Linden Heights community of Halethorpe. From the moment you arrive, the covered front porch and lush landscaping set a warm and welcoming tone—this is the kind of place that already feels like home. Step inside to find hardwood floors and natural light filling the living room, where a decorative fireplace and mantel add charm and character. A ceiling fan keeps things comfortable, and an arched doorway draws you into the formal dining room—perfect for dinners, game nights, or casual gatherings. A breakfast bar pass-through connects the dining room to the kitchen, making the whole space feel open and connected. The kitchen blends everyday function with a touch of farmhouse style—complete with stainless steel appliances, gas cooking, a deep apron sink, ceiling fan, and durable laminated flooring. Just off the kitchen, an enclosed sunroom with screened glass windows and soft carpeting offers a cozy, flexible space to relax, work, or entertain for most of the year. Upstairs, all three bedrooms offer hardwood floors and decorative molding. The third bedroom includes access to a full, walk-up attic with a rough-in for an additional bathroom—ideal for future expansion, storage, or creating a private retreat. The full bath is tastefully updated with a quartz vanity top, tub/shower combo, and easy-care flooring. The unfinished basement provides plenty of room for storage or a workshop. Outside, you’ll find a detached garage that also works well as a shed, plus a long concrete driveway with parking for three. And for those with a green thumb, the yard has been lovingly maintained by a passionate gardener—offering rich soil and great potential for your next planting season. Just minutes from the UMBC campus and neighborhood walking loop, this home offers a thoughtful blend of charm, comfort, and convenience. Come see it for yourself—you’ll feel the connection the moment you walk through the door. **Enjoy brand new full system Lennox HVAC installed June 2025**
