About the Listing RMA15 - 3047261
Some homes ask for your weekends. This one gives them back. Located within the gated Villages at Homeland, this thoughtfully updated residence offers a rare combination of privacy, convenience, and low-maintenance living in one of Baltimore's most established and sought-after neighborhoods. With mature landscaping, open green space, and community amenities just beyond your door, the setting feels tucked away while remaining remarkably connected to the city around it. The entry level welcomes you with a flexible study finished with luxury vinyl plank flooring and crown molding—an ideal space for working remotely, reading, or simply having a room of your own. The attached garage features an insulated door and automatic lighting, adding a layer of everyday convenience that often goes unnoticed until you've lived without it. Upstairs, the main living level strikes a balance that is increasingly hard to find. Distinct spaces flow naturally from one to the next, creating a home that feels open without sacrificing character. Oak hardwood flooring anchors the living room, where a fireplace creates a natural focal point. Updated doors open to a private deck overlooking green space, with integrated blinds providing clean lines and effortless privacy. The deck itself has been designed for lingering—complete with a half umbrella for shade, established plantings, and an irrigation system that convey with the home. The kitchen is exceptionally functional, featuring a French-door KitchenAid refrigerator, a dishwasher, abundant cabinetry, added shelving, and storage solutions that make daily life noticeably easier. The upper level offers two spacious bedroom suites, each with its own updated bath and customized closet organization systems. A bay window in the front suite adds architectural character and captures changing light throughout the day. Equally compelling is what happens outside your front door. Ownership here includes water, sewer, trash service, gated security, front and rear lawn care with common area landscaping, snow removal, a clubhouse with fitness equipment, access to the swimming pool and four community EV charging stations. The result is a lifestyle with fewer responsibilities and more freedom to enjoy the things that matter most. Major improvements include an insulated garage door (2017); high-efficiency Carrier HVAC system with continuous airflow, humidity control, steam humidifier, and gas heat (2017); upgraded insulation; whole-house pressure equalization ventilation system; commercial-grade water heater (2022); updated patio doors with integrated blinds; custom closet systems; and numerous storage enhancements throughout the home. The location places some of the region's most beloved destinations within easy reach, including Lake Roland Park's 500-plus acres of trails and open space, the Jones Falls Trail, The Shops at Kenilworth, Cross Keys, and the cultural institutions of Baltimore's museum district. Downtown Baltimore, major medical campuses, universities, and I-83 are all just minutes away, making it easy to move between city life and neighborhood living. For those who appreciate thoughtful updates, manageable ownership, and a neighborhood that has remained desirable for generations, this is a rare opportunity in Villages at Homeland.
