Welcome to 5009 Straight Star Place, a charming colonial tucked away on a quiet, tree-lined cul-de-sac in Columbia, Maryland. Beautifully updated and sunlit by floor-to-ceiling windows, this 5 bed, 3.5 bath home feels spacious and comfortable for every day living and hosting alike. Enter to a 2 story foyer with a waterfall staircase that leads to the bedroom level, where you'll find a true retreat in the expansive owner's suite, which is complete with vaulted ceilings, sitting area, walk-in closet, and en suite with soaker tub. Down the hall, a hall bath and three other bedrooms await, offering exceptional space and flexibility for your needs, whether that be a home office, guest room, or some combination of the two. This floor has recently been updated with brand new carpet, providing an inviting, soft landing at the end of each day. On the main level, find beautiful, blonde hardwoods, tasteful design, and a functional, open concept living space. In one direction, a living room flows into a dining room with abundant natural light and an ideal nook for nurturing indoor plants; in the other and down the hall, a bright, updated eat-in kitchen leads into another large living room space, with access to the large backyard and deck. You'll also find a half bath and roomy laundry room on this level, as well as inside access to the 2 car garage. Experience even more versatility down the stairs to the basement, where you'll find another bedroom and full bath, as well as a wrap-around bonus recreation space, perfect for a home theater, gym, or game room—whatever fits your lifestyle. Enjoy a brand new HVAC system, newer water water, and 6 year old roof.
