Pretty as a picture in desirable Montgomery Meadows, located on a quiet cul-de-sac just seconds from the entrance to the community with easy in and out access! The Flagstone front steps and architectural covered porch entrance prepare you for the many upgrades and updates the original owner has made to this gently lived in NV Madison Model adjacent to Howard County open space and creek. The entire main level is adorned with solid Oak Hardwood flooring (2022). The kitchen has ample eat-in area and is updated with GE stainless steel Profile appliances, Kohler Curvisa SS Kitchen Sink & faucet and granite counters (all in 11/2022). Adjacent Family Room is light filled with ceiling fan, wood burning fireplace and opens to the expansive deck. Did I mention the charming book nook between the living and dining rooms? The laundry and mud room are directly off the kitchen and lead to the 2-car garage with built in storage cabinets and recent garage door. Plantation shutters cover all front windows (2021). All interior door hardware has been updated with flat black in 2020 and all light fixtures were replaced with flat black in 2020. In addition, all bathroom fixtures match with Jacuzzi flat black (2021/2022). The Bedroom level has new luxury carpet (2022). The primary bedroom has cathedral ceilings, ceiling fan and double closets with en suite bath to include double sinks, soaking tub and separate shower. In addition, the upstairs has three generous size bedrooms, two with walk-in closets, a hall bath with double sinks and a linen closet. The open flow of the large finished lower level with full bath, makes room for a variety of activities. New carpet was installed in June 2023. An ample office and storage area complete this level. In 2020 all new dual glazed, double hung windows were installed. The Architectural shingle roof was installed in 2013, exterior trim cladding in 2022, and rear deck composite surface in 2017. The Hot Water Heater was replaced in 2019 and CAC compressor in 2012. In other words, "move in ready" tells the story. The community is convenient to RTs 100, 95 and 29. Super location for DC , Baltimore and BWI.
