UPDATED MODERN COLONIAL ON RARE 1.28-ACRE PRIVATE LOT! Welcome to your spacious, sun‑filled oasis in Ellicott City! This beautifully updated Colonial is nestled on a rare 1.28-acre private lot surrounded by mature trees, with professionally maintained lawn included in rent. Enjoy peaceful living with the conveniences of Howard County’s top-rated schools, Patapsco State Park trails just steps away, and easy commutes to Baltimore and DC. The bright and airy living and formal dining rooms open seamlessly into the well-appointed kitchen, perfect for both elegant dinners and casual gatherings. The kitchen features a large peninsula ideal for prep or hosting, stainless‑steel appliances, warm wood cabinets and overhead lighting, and a cozy breakfast nook area flooded in natural light and overlooking the backyard. The family room flows directly off the kitchen, showcasing a natural‑gas fireplace, hardwood flooring, custom built‑ins, and a door to the expansive back patio and lawn—complete with a natural‑gas Weber grill! Outdoor amenities include private wooded surroundings which offer serene woodland views, ample space for kids and pets, a Lifetime playground set, and two sheds for storage versatility. A professionally maintained lawn is included in the monthly rental price (no extra work for you!) and this home comes garden-ready - renters are welcome to plant and use the garden as they wish. The upstairs level includes the spacious primary suite with private balcony, two walk‑in closets, and a spa‑like bathroom featuring a soaking tub. Three additional bedrooms, a full bath, and an upstairs washer/dryer zone for convenience complete this level. The possibilities are endless in the newly renovated walk‑out finished lower level, perfect as a recreation area, gym, guest space or private office with separate exterior access. In addition, the garage has been converted into a bright, remote‑office workspace, featuring floor‑to‑ceiling daylight, a large whiteboard wall, ample storage, utility sink, and extra fridge. This space is ideal for working from home or for use as a workshop or creative studio. Renters will enjoy the perks of this home's many wellness and comfort upgrades, including EcoWater treatment and softener system, upgraded HVAC with UV light sanitation, whole-house HEPA filtration system, high-speed FiOS internet hookup, and landlord-managed repairs for quick, reliable service. This lovely home is located in the award-winning Howard County school district and offers all the joys of nature, including walkable access to the Patapsco River & trails, while also being conveniently located minutes to historic Ellicott City, Catonsville, and Columbia dining & shopping. Easy access to I-95, Route 100, and major commuter routes. Rental terms: Available now — move-in ready! Pets welcome (with approval). 12-month minimum lease with option to renew. Lawn care included. Professional, experienced landlords with 10+ years of long-term tenant satisfaction. Why This Home Stands Out: Rare acreage and privacy with suburban convenience. Dedicated remote-workspace + finished basement. Thoughtful healthy-home upgrades. Highly desirable school district. Move-in ready with flexible garden use, pet-friendly terms, and top-tier maintenance. Inquire today—homes like this don't last long!
