Property Description
Welcome to 5547 April Journey, a beautifully updated brick-front townhome condominium in Columbia's desirable Greens at Fairway Hills community. Now offered with a significant $20,000 price improvement, this exceptional home presents an outstanding opportunity for buyers seeking space, updates, privacy, and convenience at an attractive new price. Perfectly positioned backing to mature woods, the home offers peaceful views, exceptional privacy, and a serene natural backdrop rarely found in such a convenient location. With three fully finished above-grade levels, an open and inviting layout, and stylish updates throughout, this home seamlessly blends comfort, elegance, and everyday functionality. A welcoming foyer with updated statement lighting and rich hardwood flooring sets the tone from the moment you enter. The spacious living room is filled with natural light and overlooks the foyer and cascading staircase, creating an impressive sense of openness and architectural charm. Newer hardwood flooring continues throughout the home, with the exception of the stairs, providing a cohesive and polished appearance across all three levels. Updated paint, newer lighting fixtures, crown molding, and thoughtfully selected finishes add a refined touch throughout the interior. The home offers a wonderful flow for both daily living and entertaining, featuring a gracious living room, separate dining room, and beautifully updated eat-in kitchen. The gourmet kitchen is a true showpiece with premium stainless steel appliances, granite countertops, updated cabinetry, stylish hardware, a beautiful backsplash, generous preparation space, and an inviting dining area. French doors open from the kitchen to a large wood deck overlooking the rear yard and mature trees-the perfect setting for outdoor dining, morning coffee, or quiet evenings surrounded by nature. The family room provides an additional spacious and inviting living area enhanced by rich hardwood flooring, recessed lighting, and a charming wood-burning fireplace with a classic brick surround and mantel. This flexible space is ideal for relaxing, movie nights, entertaining guests, or creating a comfortable home office or recreation area. French doors lead directly from the family room to the private brick-paver patio, extending the living space outdoors. Tucked beneath the expansive deck, the patio offers a covered outdoor retreat overlooking the pristine backyard and wooded setting. Whether used for shaded seating, grilling, quiet relaxation, or entertaining, this private patio creates a wonderful connection between the interior living spaces and the natural surroundings. The rear yard and mature trees provide a sense of privacy and tranquility, making the outdoor spaces feel like a true extension of the home. The recently updated bathrooms offer a fresh, modern feel with tasteful finishes, further enhancing the home's move-in-ready appeal. A private one-car garage bay provides secure parking and storage, while the concrete driveway offers additional off-street parking for added convenience. Enjoy the best of Columbia living with fantastic shopping, restaurants, recreational parks, and trails just minutes away. Conveniently located near Routes 100, 1, 32, and 216, as well as I-695 and I-95, the home offers easy access to Baltimore, Washington, D.C., and Annapolis. A short commute to NSA, Fort Meade, Johns Hopkins APL, and MARC train stations makes this an ideal location for commuters. Served by Howard County public schools, this Greens at Fairway Hills townhome condominium truly checks every box.
