8 Shipwright Ct, Gaithersburg, MD 20877

Description

Beautifully updated and thoughtfully maintained, this 4-bedroom, 2.5-bath Colonial is tucked away on a quiet cul-de-sac in the sought-after Saybrooke community and offers more than 2,150 finished square feet above grade, a full basement, 2-car garage, and a spacious .24-acre lot. A charming front porch welcomes you inside, where fresh paint (2026), hardwood flooring, crown molding, updated lighting, and an abundance of natural light create a warm and inviting first impression. The traditional floor plan offers plenty of room to spread out, with separate living and dining spaces along with a comfortable family room anchored by a beautiful fireplace. The fireplace is professionally cleaned and inspected every year, providing added peace of mind.

The eat-in kitchen features granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, generous cabinet and prep space, a breakfast area, and an updated microwave (2022), making it equally suited for busy mornings and casual entertaining. Just off the main living area, step outside to the expansive rear deck overlooking the large, fenced backyard—plenty of space for grilling, entertaining, gardening, or simply relaxing outdoors.

Upstairs, all four bedrooms feature engineered hardwood flooring installed in 2021, eliminating the need for carpet and giving the entire upper level a clean, cohesive look. The spacious primary suite includes a walk-in closet and private bath with soaking tub and separate shower. The guest bathroom was beautifully refreshed in 2022 with updated tile, paint, lighting, mirrors, toilet, faucet, and shower fixtures.

The home has continued to receive meaningful updates throughout, including a NEW ROOF AND SKYLIGHT (2023) with a transferable roof warranty, NEW FURNACE (2025), security system (2021), ceiling fans (2021), smart thermostat (2022), and new light fixtures throughout the home and inside closets (2023). The main-level powder room was also refreshed with a new toilet, mirror, and light fixture.

The full, insulated 935-square-foot unfinished basement offers tremendous additional potential for a recreation room, home gym, office, playroom, storage, or future finished living space. The attached 2-car garage provides even more storage and everyday convenience, including a dedicated workshop area and power with a plug for EV charging. A smart garage door opener provides convenient app-based control right from your phone.

And the location completes the package! Saybrooke residents enjoy community amenities including an outdoor pool, tennis courts, walking/jogging paths, playgrounds, and common areas—all while being conveniently located near shopping, dining, parks, and major commuter routes.
