Welcome home to country living while still being close enough to everything! This 3BR, 3BA Sykesville rancher (w no HOA!) is located just off the beaten path, minutes from all amenities, and is located only 4 miles from the Howard County line, making a commute south a snap. Enjoy one-level living on top of a finished lower level that has a huge rec room, storage space, and two other rooms that can be used as a guest room, exercise room, or office. The kitchen has table space and stainless steel appliances, and shares the space in the rear of home with the family room that has a gas fireplace. The dining room has hardwood floors, and sits adjacent to the light-filled living room. There are three bedrooms on the main level, with two of them sharing a full bath. The good-sized primary bedroom has its own recently updated full bathroom with a stand-up shower. Walk out from the family room to a brand-new deck that leads to a large flat back yard, partially shielded with evergreens. Bring the pups - the yard is fully fenced in with a large shed for you to store your mower and tools. The lower level is basically a mirror image of the above-grade living space, giving you almost 3,000 sq ft of total sq ft. The laundry is located on the lower level, and there's also plenty of room for storage with extra shelving. A rear walk-up from the lower level gives you egress to the backyard. The oversized 2-car side-load garage is a bonus with space for a workbench, etc, and the driveway is large enough to accommodate about 8 vehicles. Come on out and take a tour, or visit the Open House on Saturday, June 14, from 11-2!
