Escape to Your Own Private Sanctuary in Western Howard County! Tucked away in the serene landscapes of Western Howard County, this stunning all-brick Cape Cod offers a rare blend of timeless charm, modern comfort, and breathtaking natural beauty — all on 13.9 magnificent acres. From the moment you arrive, the classic covered front porch welcomes you home, setting the tone for the warmth and character that awaits inside. Step through the brand-new front door into a gracious foyer that flows into a spacious, light-filled living room — the perfect gathering place for family and friends. The heart of the home is a beautifully updated kitchen boasting rich granite countertops, an eat-in area, and an elegant coffee bar and pantry with built-in cabinetry and granite counters, all seamlessly connected to the convenient laundry area. The generous main-level family room provides the ideal space to relax and unwind. When warmer months arrive, throw open the door to your expansive screened-in porch and let the pastoral views and fiery evening sunsets take your breath away. On cooler evenings, step down to the lower-level patio and lose yourself in the tranquil beauty of your very own Koi pond. This home offers 3 bedrooms and 2 baths, with incredible potential to grow. The massive walk-up attic presents an exciting opportunity to add two additional bedrooms, while the finished lower level features a private bedroom, a versatile rec room, and a cozy wood-burning stove that efficiently warms the entire home on crisp country evenings. The possibilities don't stop at the front door. Outside, a large open barn and chicken coop stand ready for your homesteading dreams, while lush vegetable gardens invite you to live off the land. Of the 13.9 total acres, 7 acres are designated as a Conservation Easement, beautifully wooded with trees that were planted over seven years ago — a living legacy that provides privacy, natural beauty, and potential tax benefits. The remaining acreage is fully available for recreation or whatever your heart desires. Whether you're dreaming of a working hobby farm or simply a peaceful escape from the everyday, this is the property you've been waiting for.
