Set on a quarter-acre lot with a fenced backyard, this charming rancher combines classic character, thoughtful updates, and flexible living space across two finished levels. Hardwood flooring welcomes you into the living room, where a large picture window fills the space with natural light. A brick-surround wood-burning fireplace with insert serves as the focal point, flanked by built-in bookcases that add both charm and functionality. Just beyond, the dining room features chair railing and a glass-paneled atrium door that opens to the deck, creating an easy connection between indoor and outdoor living. The renovated kitchen blends timeless style with everyday practicality, showcasing white soft-close cabinetry, black granite countertops, a subway tile backsplash, and stainless steel appliances. Three bedrooms are located on the main level, including a spacious primary suite with an updated vanity and a tiled shower in the private en-suite bath. Two additional generously sized bedrooms share a full hall bath. Bathroom exhaust fans were replaced in 2026, adding to the home's list of recent improvements. Downstairs, the finished lower level offers exceptional versatility. Gather around the second brick-surround fireplace in the family room, accommodate guests with a third full bath and a potential for a fourth full bath or customize the bonus room to suit your needs as a home office, hobby space, fitness room, or guest space. A laundry area, workshop space, and walk-up access to the side yard add convenience and functionality. Outside, the expansive deck overlooks the fenced backyard, complete with a garden area, storage shed, and mature fig, apple, and peach trees that provide seasonal beauty and homegrown fruit. The generous outdoor space offers plenty of room for entertaining, gardening, or simply enjoying the peaceful setting. An attached carport, newly installed boiler (2026), replacement windows installed around 2018, and cold water pipes replaced in 2020 further enhance the home's appeal and value. Ideally located near a wide variety of shopping, dining, recreation, and outdoor destinations, residents enjoy easy access to the Fairland Sports & Aquatics Complex, Laurel Municipal Swimming Pool, West Laurel Swim Club, and the scenic trails and natural beauty of the Duckett Watershed. Burtonsville Crossing, Towne Centre Laurel, Downtown Laurel's Main Street district, and The Mall in Columbia are all just a short drive away, offering endless options for everyday conveniences and entertainment.
