Welcome to 12135 Little Patuxent Parkway, set on a beautifully landscaped lot just under 1/3 acre in the heart of Columbia. From the moment you arrive, the wraparound front porch and mature landscaping create a warm, inviting first impression, while the detached garage adds to the charm. Inside, hardwood floors carry throughout the main level. The welcoming foyer is complete with a built-in bench and cubby system to keep organized. A conveniently located powder room sits just off the entry foyer. The spacious family room features custom built-in bookshelves and a wood-burning fireplace that anchors the space with character. The kitchen is beautifully designed, offering a center island, built-in pantry, stainless appliances, granite counters and seamless connection to the dining room with doors that step out onto the expansive deck overlooking the beautifully landscaped backyard, complete with a zoned sprinkler system. To complete the main level, there is a flex room that could be a great office, sitting room or use your imagination! Upstairs, you'll find three generously sized bedrooms, including a large primary suite with a walk in closet and built in storage area and a private bath featuring a dual sink vanity. The hall bathroom is equally spacious with double sinks, and all bathrooms throughout the home have been thoughtfully updated with quality finishes. The finished lower level adds even more versatility with a large recreation room, a fourth bedroom, an adjacent full bathroom, along with a large laundry/utility/storage area. The rec room walks out to a paver patio that extends beneath the deck, creating a shaded outdoor retreat. An additional storage room, accessed from the patio, provides even more space for your storage, tools, seasonal items, and more! This home offers plenty of space, and has an inviting layout, all in a prime location with easy access to shopping, dining, and major commuter routes to Fort Meade, D.C., Baltimore, and Annapolis. Owner is looking for positive credit and rental history. Pets case by case.
