This Victorian home in Laurel offers over 2,200 sq. ft. of living space with a first-floor bedroom, FR, DR, KIT, bathroom, and laundry, plus 2 additional bedrooms and bathroom upstairs. There is a gas fireplace in the FR for warmth on those chilly days & nights ahead. A back stairs leads from the kitchen up to the second floor. In the kitchen you'll find exposed beams, a step-back cupboard, and an eat-to bar. Outside there is a large back yard with 2 storage sheds and a carport. Vinyl siding on most areas affords less exterior maintenance. Efficient solar panels are owned (not leased). A new roof was installed in 2021 prior to their installation. Dwelling has a whole house A/C cooling system with Mitsubishi units. There is also a natural gas boiler for the baseboard heat.

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
