Description

Welcome home to space, serenity, and endless potential. Nestled on a secluded 5-acre retreat in Cooksville, this property offers timeless charm, scenic views, and exceptional privacy—all just minutes from Rt. 70 with convenient access to Baltimore, Frederick, Washington, DC, parks, and local amenities. Lovingly maintained by its original owners, this 4-bedroom, 2.5-bath home features two full levels of comfortable living space. The upper level includes a bright and inviting living room, a formal dining room, and a spacious eat-in kitchen, along with three bedrooms—including a primary suite with a private half bath—and a full hall bath. A large deck extends the living space outdoors, providing the perfect place to relax and enjoy peaceful views of the surrounding acres. The lower level offers a generous family room centered around a cozy wood stove, as well as a fourth bedroom, a full bath, a laundry area, a utility room, and additional storage space. A walkout provides direct access to the expansive backyard and surrounding grounds. Outside, you'll find a detached one-car garage with electricity, a storage shed, and ample driveway parking. Additional updates and features include a whole-house backup generator for added peace of mind and a new hot water heater. The property also features a second water well located near the old barn pad, offering added convenience and potential for the horse enthusiast (needs electricity to work). The 5-acre lot offers the best of both worlds, with wooded seclusion and open space ideal for recreation, gardening, or simply enjoying nature. Adding to its appeal, the property backs to 55 acres of protected conservation land that will never be developed. This is a rare opportunity to own a private retreat in Howard County—filled with character, surrounded by nature, and ready for your personal touch.
