Property Description
Welcome to this beautiful oversized Colonial in the highly desirable community of Mill Creek South, ideally situated on a premium lot along a picturesque tree-lined street. From the moment you enter, you'll be impressed by the large foyer with an expansive floor plan and gorgeous hardwood floors that flow throughout the home. The spacious family room with a cozy fireplace provides the perfect gathering space, while a private office with custom built-ins and french doors offers an ideal work-from-home setup or quiet study retreat. The kitchen features stainless steel appliances, granite countertops, recessed lighting, and a charming breakfast nook overlooking the backyard-perfect for casual dining and everyday living. The fully finished basement adds exceptional living space and includes a walk-out to the stunning stone patio, seamlessly blending indoor and outdoor entertaining areas. Whether used as a media room, game room, gym, or guest space, this lower level offers incredible flexibility. Step outside to your own private oasis. The professionally landscaped yard features a gorgeous stone retaining wall, an expansive stone patio, and a new deck complete with a retractable awning-ideal for relaxing or entertaining in style. This exceptional home combines timeless Colonial elegance, thoughtful updates, and beautiful outdoor living spaces-all in one of the area's most sought-after neighborhoods. A true must-see in Mill Creek South. "What I Love About the Home" from the seller: We love the excellent and convenient location which sits at the border of Rockville and Gaithersburg, just minutes from RIO, Downtown Gaithersburg and Rockville Town Center. The home is also close to the Shady Grove Metro Station and the community's newly paved sidewalks make it an easy and pleasant walk. Quick access to ICC-200, I-370 and I-270 which makes commuting to DC, Virginia and Baltimore convenient. There is no HOA and the county provides services such as road maintenance, paving and snow removal at no additional cost. The home offers flexible living space with multiple rooms for different lifestyles- we once converted the room next to the primary bedroom into a luxury dressing room! The fully finished basement includes a bedroom and bathroom and a large space for activity. We used it for band rehearsals, gatherings with friends and dance practices. In the spring, the front and backyard gardens come alive with azaleas, lavender, roses, cherry tree, fig tree, Japanese maple and many other beautiful plants. The yard attracts doves, hummingbirds and cardinals, creating a peaceful and beautiful outdoor space!
