Beautifully refreshed and thoughtfully upgraded, this 2-bedroom, 1-bath condo in Columbia’s desirable Hickory Ridge community offers a seamless blend of comfort and style. Vaulted ceilings and abundant natural light create an airy ambiance, while brand-new carpet installed in 2026 enhances the living room and hallway. Recessed lighting adds a modern touch throughout the living room and kitchen, where every detail has been carefully considered. At the heart of the home, the fully renovated kitchen showcases new modern cabinetry, solid maple countertops, and a full-height ceramic backsplash that wraps around the kitchen. A new sink and faucet sit beneath updated lighting, complemented by a high-end vent hood, newer range, dishwasher, refrigerator, and garbage disposal, all contributing to both form and function. Adjacent spaces flow effortlessly, supported by engineered wood flooring in the kitchen and foyer. Both bedrooms feature solid wood flooring, with the second bedroom offering built-in shelving ideal for a home office or guest retreat, along with newly installed slider doors. Additional upgrades include six-panel doors, Baldwin brass hardware, upgraded outlet switches, chair rail detailing, and new window blinds throughout, creating a cohesive and polished interior. The bathroom has been fully transformed with a new vanity and lighting, ceramic tile flooring, custom ceramic wainscoting, a cherry wood vanity, and the added comfort of a heat lamp. Everyday convenience continues with a newer washer and dryer, approximately four years old. Major system updates provide peace of mind, including a heat pump HVAC system approximately six years old, along with roof and siding replaced around the same time. A new chimney flue was installed roughly four years ago. Additional features such as a Yale keyless entry system and Nest smoke alarm add modern ease to daily living. Set within a quiet, garden-style community, this home offers easy single-level living just minutes from Howard Community College, as well as nearby shopping, dining, trails, and major commuter routes.
