The home appraised at $630k with no conditions Check out the stunning video tour of this home! Welcome to this recently renovated raised ranch-style home, it is a perfect blend of rustic charm and modern convenience. This meticulously maintained property offers a timeless and durable fully stone exterior, beautifully updated features and a delightful outdoor space. Enjoy the warmth of refinished hardwood flooring throughout the main level, which includes 3 bedrooms and a full bathroom. The family room boasts a wood burning fireplace with stone accent (conveyed as-is, condition unknown) and built-in cabinetry with a granite countertop, creating a cozy yet functional space. The kitchen features stainless steel appliances, cream colored cabinetry, dark granite countertops, and a striking sea-blue glass backsplash. Modern plank tile flooring adds stylish durability while the instant hot water feature and a pass-through to the dining area add practicality. The fully finished basement includes an additional bedroom with private entry, a kitchenette with white cabinetry and granite countertop, and two full bathrooms. It is the perfect set up for multigenerational families, or just household members requiring extra privacy. A heat pump services the upstairs for efficient climate control, while two ductless mini split systems ensure comfort year-round downstairs. A large hideaway storage area offers plenty of room for items to be stored out of sight. The home offers recessed lighting throughout. The .72-acre yard is adorned with a mature fig and persimmon tree, a lush Japanese maple tree, and professional landscaping that lines the driveway. A large fenced area and generous sized shed with electricity adds to the home’s appeal. Enjoy beautiful stone walkways, ample outdoor space, and a well-maintained garden area. Two brand new asphalt driveways offer plenty of parking space. There is potential for an oversized detached garage. Professional plans are available for those considering expanding the home or adding an attached garage. (The county has already approved the permit!) A Power Purchase Agreement (PPA) is in place with Tesla; so you can enjoy an eco- friendly energy solution. This home is located in a quiet and beautiful neighborhood with great curb appeal. Convenient to BWI, Baltimore, D. C, 695, 95, 100, 32, and Route 1. Just a few minutes from Rockburn Branch Park which offers disc golf, hiking trails, tennis courts, BBQ, slides, swings, etc. Patapsco State Park is only about 15 minutes away as well. About 5 minutes from the local YMCA, Target, Kohl’s, and Safeway.
