Price improvement! Backing to woods with a private, tree-lined backyard, this three-bedroom, two-and-a-half-bath townhome in Dorsey Search offers a brand-new roof (2026), a finished walkout lower level, and a quiet setting that feels far removed from a typical townhome. The main level opens to hardwood floors running through a bright living room with a wood-burning fireplace and a sliding glass door to the deck. The adjacent dining room, with pendant lighting and a pass-through window, connects to an eat-in kitchen featuring granite countertops, a subway-tile backsplash, and stainless-steel appliances, including a French-door refrigerator and dishwasher both new in 2024. A large window over the kitchen table looks out to the front lawn, and a convenient powder room sits just off the kitchen. Upstairs, the primary bedroom includes double closets and a private full bath. Two additional bedrooms share a second full bath with a tub-shower and updated white vanity. The finished walkout lower level is a true second living space: a carpeted family room with a fireplace and a sliding door that opens directly onto a covered paver patio beneath the deck. A separate laundry and storage room houses the stacked washer and dryer with generous shelving space. Outside is where this home stands apart. The deck overlooks a deep, flat lawn that runs back to mature trees and community green space, with regular visits from birds and the occasional deer. Recent improvements include an architectural shingle roof with reinforced support beams for future solar panels (2026), fresh paint throughout (2024), new refrigerator and dishwasher (2024), stainless-steel range (2021), replacement windows, and hardwood flooring and carpet throughout. Dorsey Search residents enjoy a community pool, walking trails, playgrounds, and quick access to Routes 29, 100, 32, and I-95, as well as shopping and dining throughout Ellicott City and Columbia.
