BACK ACTIVE! Tucked away in a sought-after Ellicott City community and backing to open common space with scenic hiking trails, this lovingly maintained Colonial blends charm, character, and thoughtful updates throughout. Highlights include a newer roof, HVAC, windows, flooring, carpet, and more. The main level showcases refinished yellow pine flooring, and the formal dining room features stunning reclaimed 1840s oak log wood. The updated kitchen offers rich wood cabinetry, bamboo countertops, and opens to a cozy sitting area with built-in bookshelves. A sun-drenched sunroom with soaring cathedral ceilings and bamboo floors provides two exits to the beautifully landscaped, fenced backyard. The spacious living room features wide plank wood floors and a built-in corner China cabinet, while a powder room is conveniently located off the foyer and near the garage entry. Upstairs, new carpet flows throughout. The primary suite includes a walk-in closet and a large en suite bathroom with dual vanity and a shower. Two additional bedrooms and a full hall bath complete the upper level. The lower level adds even more space with a recreation room, a bonus room, laundry area, and abundant storage. Outside, enjoy your own private oasis with lush landscaping and a charming arched gate that opens directly to the open common grounds and trails. Ideally located near major commuter routes, shopping, dining, and entertainment, this home is the perfect blend of serenity and convenience. The offer deadline for this property is Monday, August 11th at 2pm.
