Eldersburg Living at Its Best! Welcome to this beautiful 4-bedroom, 2½-bath, 2-car garage Colonial that is situated on a peaceful cul-de-sac in the desirable Sherlock Holmes neighborhood. With over 3,100 square feet of finished living space and 1.80 +/- acres, this exceptional home offers the space, flexibility, and amenities you've been looking for—with plenty of room to grow. The gourmet kitchen is truly the heart of this home, featuring an oversized island, gorgeous Quartz countertops, abundant cabinetry, a dedicated propane gas cooktop, stylish backsplash, recessed lighting, and LVP flooring. Whether you're preparing a weeknight meal or entertaining a crowd, there is no shortage of space to cook, gather, and enjoy. The spacious dining room and living room, both featuring beautiful hardwood floors, provide a perfect setting for entertaining. The family room offers hardwood flooring, recessed lighting, a cozy wood-burning fireplace and another small office area that can be utilized for many things. Double doors lead directly to an incredible sunroom, where vaulted ceilings, built-in shelving, built-in bench seat and drawers, hardwood floors, a ceiling fan, and expansive windows, create a bright and welcoming retreat overlooking the backyard. Step outside to the Trex deck and enjoy even more space for outdoor entertaining and relaxation. Need a dedicated workspace? The private home office is tucked away from the main living areas, offering ceramic tile flooring and recessed lighting—a peaceful and productive space for working from home. Upstairs, the primary suite offers an unexpected bonus: an additional room within the suite that can be transformed to fit your lifestyle. Use it as a nursery, reading room, craft space, game room, or private retreat. A built-in bookcase adds even more functionality and charm. The remodeled primary bathroom adds another touch of luxury with heated flooring, stand-alone soaking tub, double sinks, a spa-like shower and direct access to an impressive walk-in closet. And for added convenience, this home features two laundry rooms—one on the main level and another conveniently located just off the primary bathroom. The lower level offers endless possibilities and is ready to be transformed to suit your vision. A convenient walk-out entrance leads directly to a brand-new patio, added in 2026, creating an inviting connection to the outdoors. This space can easily be customized for a recreation room, home gym, hobby area, additional living space, or whatever best fits your lifestyle. There is also a large storage room with shelving. With the perimeter walls already in place and freshly painted, along with new lighting installed, much of the groundwork is already complete—making it easy to finish and create a beautiful, functional space you’ll love. Major updates include a roof replacement in 2019 and an upstairs HVAC system replaced in 2025. The driveway has been completely removed and repaved in 2025. Outside, the private backyard is where this home truly shines. Offering plenty of space for gatherings, entertaining, gardening, recreation, or simply relaxing and enjoying the peaceful surroundings, it’s the perfect place to create your own outdoor retreat. The front of the home is equally inviting, featuring a welcoming porch and beautiful landscaping that adds to its curb appeal. An added bonus is an electric fence. This property is public water and septic. A home warranty will be provided. Spacious. Versatile. Thoughtfully updated. Exceptionally inviting. This is more than a house—it's a place where you can spread out, entertain, relax, and create memories for years to come. Come experience Eldersburg living at its best!
