This 1992 Brick Fronted Colonial is situated on a 10,828 square foot corner lot on a short cul-de-sac in a private setting in popular North Sherwood Forest, yet close to the ICC/MD 200 connector highway & other major commuter roads. The entrance hall has hardwood floors and a 2 story ceiling soaring above that makes for a grand place to meet your guests. The impressive mirror in the foyer will remain with the property. On the left is a spacious Living Room and on your right is a well-sized Dining Room with a recent chandelier that affords a really big dining table set for your holidays. Move on and enter the Kitchen, Breakfast room w/bay window, and Family room with a wood-burning fireplace. The breakfast room has space for a regular table and chairs, and here is another impressive chandelier that remains, and it's bright!  Adjacent is the kitchen with a double sink, lots of granite countertops for easy entertaining with the cabinet storage you need plus there's a pantry around the corner. There's a new double-door stainless refrigerator, new dishwasher, and recent stove and built-in microwave. Off the kitchen is a laundry area with a recent large LG washer/dryer and half bathroom. The family room has double doors to a recently installed large stone patio which affords a great outdoor entertaining space and grille area.  Upstairs a huge owner suite with two walk-in closets, cathedral ceilings, and a big bathroom with shower and soaking tub. Brand new neutral carpet is on the stairs and the entire upper level. There's a big hall bathroom with shower/tub and 3 more spacious bedrooms; two with double closets, big bright windows, and fresh paint throughout.  The basement is roomy, unfinished with a rough-in for another full bathroom, and has a recent sump pump and good insulation already in place. There's a whole house water softener (Ecowater System EP42007) by Marmon Water that will convey to the buyer - it reduces mineral stains, uses less detergent in the wash, and helps your water-using appliances last longer by allowing them to run more efficiently. The 2-car side garage w/connecting door to the kitchen is extra wide with lots of storage cabinets and a work surface for a hobbyist.  The roof has long-life shingles, is around 10 years old, and has solar panels on a portion; a buyer can assume the lease. It is 10 years into a 20-year lease - giving you the option to buy it at the end or remove it. The sellers have found it a big help in reducing electric bills.  Trash and recycling pickup are included in the property taxes here.   A Homeowner association annual fee of $217.68 in 2024 will not bust your budget and ensures some common area maintenance and oversight for your new neighborhood. This home is a great opportunity to join a community with good-sized lots and privacy on a low-traffic street, close to major highways and convenient to grocery and other stores.  Hurry over!
