Welcome to 5161 Harpers Farm Road, beautifully updated and ideally situated in the upscale Villas at Hobbit’s Glen, a close-knit golf course community in the heart of Columbia. Offering a flexible 3- or 4-bedroom layout, multiple living spaces, a finished lower level, garage, abundant natural light, and beautiful golf-course views, this home delivers space, comfort, and an exceptional Columbia lifestyle. The main level features wood flooring, fresh paint, new recessed lighting, an updated powder room, and bright, open living spaces. The refreshed kitchen features new stainless steel appliances and opens to a comfortable sitting area with a gas fireplace. Step outside onto the large rear deck, relax, entertain, and watch the golfers go by. Direct garage access is conveniently located at the end of the main hallway near the stairs to both the upper and lower levels. Upstairs, new carpet continues throughout a wonderfully flexible floor plan. The spacious primary suite offers excellent closet space, an updated private bath with soaking tub and separate shower, and its own covered deck overlooking the peaceful surroundings. An adjoining sitting room makes a terrific office, den, nursery, or reading room and could easily be enclosed to create a third upstairs bedroom. A Jack-and-Jill-style half bath connects this space to the hallway. The second level also includes a private guest bedroom above the garage with its own updated full bath, an additional loft perfect for a home office or reading area, and a convenient upstairs laundry room with two utility sinks. The mostly finished lower level provides even more living space with a huge family/recreation room, a generously sized legal bedroom with egress, a full bath, additional storage, and a separate utility room. With the lower-level bedroom and flexible upstairs sitting room, the home can function beautifully as a 3- or 4-bedroom residence. The location is just as impressive. The Villas at Hobbit’s Glen offers a wooded, golf-course setting convenient to Hobbit’s Glen Golf Club and the highly regarded Turn House restaurant, along with nearby tennis, swimming, walking trails, and outdoor recreation. Enjoy everything the greater Columbia community has to offer, including extensive Columbia Association amenities with sports and fitness centers, indoor and outdoor swimming, gyms, exercise classes, playgrounds, trails, and year-round activities. All of this is just minutes from shopping, dining, major commuter routes, Howard Community College, Howard County General Hospital, Downtown Columbia, and the award-winning Merriweather Post Pavilion. Beautifully renovated, remarkably spacious, and surrounded by recreation, nature, and some of Columbia’s best amenities, 5161 Harpers Farm Road offers the golf-course lifestyle and convenience that make Hobbit’s Glen such a special place to call home.
