Country Living Meets Convenience — 5-Acre Equestrian Retreat in Howard County Tucked away on a beautifully private 5 acres, this brick home offers the rare combination of peaceful, country-like seclusion with top-rated Howard County schools on top of an easy commute to the Columbia, DC, Baltimore and Annapolis areas. The setting feels like a retreat — open, scenic acreage that's fully equipped for horses or livestock, with several run-in sheds and separately fenced paddocks offering flexibility for rotation and pasture management. The multiple outbuildings allow for multi level homesteading. Inside, the home has been thoughtfully updated with a fully remodeled kitchen and a light-filled 3-season porch addition — perfect for enjoying the surrounding views year-round. The square footage listed can be misleading as much of the first level is above grade with full sized windows allowing for ample natural light. With 4 bedrooms (and a possible 5th in the lower level), plus multiple spaces designed for relaxation and entertaining, there's room for everyone to enjoy the spacious home. Many updates have been done over recent years. Outside, entertaining is effortless around the just-2-year-old in ground pool finished with stunning iridescent tile accents, framed by a spacious paver patio. The pool is fully fenced for safety and peace of mind. There is even an outdoor shower with hot and cold water! Additional highlights include a 2-car garage with attached workshop and ample paved parking — ideal for guests, trailers, or extra vehicles. Whether you're dreaming of a hobby farm, equestrian property, or simply a private country escape with modern updates, this Howard County gem checks every box.
