Offering five bedrooms and three and a half bathrooms across three finished levels, this stunning home in Franklin Station delivers both space and style, set on a corner lot with a fenced backyard. Inside, 9-foot ceilings and an open concept layout create a bright, inviting main level. A soaring two-story vaulted ceiling enhances the dining room, complete with built-in speakers—perfect for hosting gatherings—while elegant crown molding adds sophistication to the living room. The kitchen stands out with granite countertops, a river rock backsplash, dual-mode LED recessed lighting, an instant hot water dispenser, and 42” cabinets with pull-outs and under-cabinet lighting. Stainless steel appliances include a KitchenAid gas range and microwave, an LG Wi-Fi enabled dishwasher, and a Kenmore Elite French door refrigerator with a freezer drawer. Just off the kitchen, the breakfast nook opens to a Trex deck through sliding glass doors with integrated blinds, ideal for indoor-outdoor living. A half bathroom and laundry room with 42” cabinets and an LG Wi-Fi enabled washer finish the main level. Upstairs, brand-new carpet flows throughout, including the versatile loft space. The primary bedroom features a cathedral ceiling, a walk-in closet with California Closets system, and a luxurious en suite bathroom highlighting a dual-sink vanity, built-in speakers, walk-in shower, soaking tub with custom tilework, and a fireplace. Three additional bedrooms—also with California Closet systems—and a full hall bath with a tub-shower complete the upper level. One of the bedrooms, currently used as a home office, includes a Cat6 Ethernet connection to the basement for high-speed performance. Downstairs, the finished lower level offers space for work, play, and guests, with walk-out access to the fully fenced backyard. A large recreation room features custom built-ins, a gas fireplace, and ceiling-mounted surround sound speakers. Also on this level is the fifth bedroom and a third full bathroom with a walk-in shower. Additional highlights include custom landscaping, stone front steps, and upgraded triple-pane Pella and Vytex replacement windows throughout. Other recent updates such as a brand-new roof with a 25-year transferable warranty, new carpet, and energy-efficient systems—including a Lennox central AC, high-efficiency water heater, Aprilaire whole-house humidifier, and pre-wiring for future Verizon FiOS upgrades—add comfort and long-term value. Enjoy outdoor activities at nearby Hannah More Park and Reisterstown Regional Park, shopping and dining at Foundry Row, and easy access to I-795, MD-140, and I-695 for smooth commuting in every direction.
