Custom-built in 2022, this exceptional home reflects a significant investment in quality and construction, with the original owners spending over $200,000 in builder upgrades at the time of build. Offering nearly 4,400 finished square feet, this nearly-new, custom-built residence delivers a level of craftsmanship, materials, and systems that clearly set it apart from standard new construction. From the outset, the home was upgraded with premium selections and structural enhancements, including 2x6 construction, Andersen windows and sliding doors, a recessed fire sprinkler system, solid hardwood flooring, oak stairs with iron balusters, custom millwork, spillguard padding in the bedrooms, and upgraded lighting throughout. The gourmet kitchen and baths feature granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, upgraded cabinetry, and thoughtfully selected finishes designed for both durability and timeless appeal. The main level offers 9’ ceilings, a gas fireplace with marble surround, and an open yet functional layout ideal for everyday living and entertaining. Upstairs, the primary suite serves as a true retreat with a luxury bath, soaking tub, oversized shower, dual vanities, and a custom walk-in closet, while secondary bedrooms include blackout shades and generous closet space. The fully finished lower level was intentionally designed to maximize livability and long-term value, featuring a custom theater room (professionally wired with specialty lighting), home gym, bedroom, full bath, and substantial storage—perfect for movie nights, guests, or multi-generational living. Additional highlights include an oversized 3-car garage, EV charger rough-in, fiber-optic Fios service, brick patio, 2-zone HVAC, public water and sewer, and a .63-acre lot. Located in a top-rated school district and benefiting from lower property taxes than surrounding counties, this home offers exceptional long-term value. Enjoy easy access to major commuter routes and nearby parks, as well as quick, convenient access to shopping, restaurants, and grocery stores, all within a few miles. With no HOA and no town tax, this home offers privacy, efficiency, and peace of mind in a highly desirable Sykesville location. A rare opportunity to own a nearly-new, custom-built home where the quality of construction and six-figure upgrade investment are evident at every turn.
