Offer Deadline: Monday, March 31st 12pm. Tucked away on a peaceful cul-de-sac in the Village of Long Reach, this contemporary home offers stylish updates, modern convenience, and a light-filled interior. Vibrant azalea bushes add a welcoming touch, but it's the moment you step inside that truly captivates. A soaring vaulted ceiling immediately creates an airy, open feel, while expansive windows flood the main living space with natural light. The neutral color palette and luxury vinyl plank flooring enhance the bright and inviting atmosphere. The spacious living room seamlessly flows into the dining area, providing an ideal space for entertaining or everyday living. Adjacent, the updated kitchen boasts crisp white cabinetry, gleaming granite countertops, and stainless steel appliances. A sliding glass door off the kitchen opens to an incredible screened porch, where a cathedral ceiling, composite decking, and a striking reclaimed wood accent wall create a perfect retreat that truly extends the living space outside. Downstairs, the lower-level family room offers a cozy gathering space, featuring a gas fireplace with a stacked stone surround flanked by built-in bookcases. Another sliding glass door leads to the paver patio, seamlessly blending indoor and outdoor living. This level also includes a fourth bedroom, an updated full bath, and a laundry room with garage access. Upstairs, the spacious primary suite serves as a private sanctuary with dual closets and an en-suite bath featuring a granite-topped vanity and a floor-to-ceiling tiled shower with a mosaic inlay. Two additional bedrooms share a beautifully renovated full bath with a tiled tub/shower surround, completing this level. The evergreen-tree lined backyard offers a private escape with tiered landscaping, blueberry bushes, and a rain garden. A raised garden bed provides space to cultivate your favorite plants, while the paver patio is the perfect spot for a fire pit. A storage shed offers additional space for tools and outdoor essentials. Additionally, the property includes an extra-wide driveway, and an attached 2-car garage with a workbench area for added convenience. With major updates including a new roof, water heater, HVAC, windows, kitchen, baths, and lighting, this home is move-in ready. Enjoy easy access to scenic walking paths, Jackson Pond, and a commuter bus to D.C. Plus, Downtown Columbia and Ellicott City are just minutes away, offering endless shopping, dining, and entertainment. Convenient commuter routes, including I-70, Routes 29 and 40, and MD-175, make travel effortless. Blending contemporary style with thoughtful updates and an exceptional location, this home is a true standout!

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.
