Description
404 S. Marlyn Avenue | Essex, MD 21221 is eligible for 100% financing**** Welcome home to this beautifully renovated gem in Essex, MD — where modern finishes, comfortable living, and an unbeatable price make homeownership not just a dream, but a reality!
Completely gut-renovated from the studs out, this move-in-ready detached single family home in Essex delivers the kind of thoughtful, high-quality renovation that's hard to find at this price point. Every detail has been checked off — and then some.
First-Time Buyers ** This One's For You! Why rent when you can own for about the same monthly cost? Down payment assistance programs are available, and you may be able to purchase this home with little to no money out of pocket.
The Main Level — Open, Bright & Made for Living
Step inside and be immediately welcomed by soaring 8-foot ceilings and an open-concept layout with a beautiful front-to-back view through the living room, dining room, and kitchen. Brand-new LVP flooring, LED recessed lighting, trendy light fixtures, and a tranquil zen-like neutral color palette come together to create a space that just feels like home the moment you walk in. Tall windows drench the main level in natural light, and the living room offers ample space for a generous wall-mounted TV — perfect for movie nights in! The back yard features a new 10 x 20 deck that spans the length of the home [perfect for entertaining, relaxing, or soaking up those warm Maryland evenings] AND the back yard is fenced in. Recent millings were put down for ample turn-around space in part of back yard.
The Coffee Bar — Yes, Really
If you're a coffee lover, you are going to lose your mind over this! Your very own private coffee bar features a granite wall-mounted counter, designer lighting, and a built-in electronics charging station. Sip your morning coffee here in your own little sanctuary — or take it outside to that new back deck.
The Kitchen
A true showstopper — white soft-close wood cabinetry, granite countertops, new stainless steel refrigerator, gas stove, and under-cabinet lighting you simply have to see in person. This kitchen was designed to impress!
The Bedrooms & Baths
Two generously sized bedrooms on the main level — including a front bedroom with a charming window seat, perfect for reading or people watching, plus two closets! The main level full bath features a tub/shower combo with ceramic tile surround, trendy finishes, and ample shelving, with a new stackable washer/dryer tucked neatly away. Upstairs, the third bedroom offers its own private en-suite with a walk-in shower and stylish ceramic tile surround — ideal as a primary retreat or guest suite.
The Peace of Mind
The big-ticket items are done — new architectural shingle roof and gutters, new siding, new AC system, updated plumbing and electric, new wood front porch, new back deck, and new washer and dryer. Just unpack and live!
The Location & Lifestyle
Essex, MD is a waterfront community lifestyle at its finest — boating, fishing, crabbing, and swimming are practically in your backyard! Add in convenient access to shopping, dining, major commuter routes MD-702 and I-695, and you have everything you need right at your fingertips.
Bonus — the home is zoned Residential Office (RO), meaning you could also run a business from this space. Confirm details with Baltimore County.
