There are turnkey homes, and then there are next-level properties showcasing refined craftsmanship and elevated, thoughtful renovations that result in a 'Perfect 10.' Welcome to 9717 Starling Road located within the sought-after McKenzie Meadows enclave of Ellicott City. This stately colonial exemplifies best-in-class features and designer finishes worthy of a magazine spread. Highlights include a recent extensive kitchen and primary bathroom renovation which spared no expense, top-of-the-line appliances, quartz countertops, custom white shaker-style kitchen cabinetry extending to the ceiling, white oak hardwood flooring throughout the main level, upscale light fixtures, and a sun-drenched walk-out lower level - all backing to a serene conservation area and occupying a 1/3 acre lot. Formal living and dining spaces include custom moldings and the eat-in area off the kitchen features a bay window bump-out. The family room offers custom built-in shelving and a brick wood-burning fireplace. The primary bedroom is highlighted by a soaring vaulted ceiling while the recently renovated primary bath features a Kohler stand-alone tub, custom dual sink vanity with quartz countertops, and a spa-like shower stall. Three bright and airy secondary bedrooms are also found upstairs. The lower level presents more crown moulding, recessed lighting, a tasteful guest room with full bath, and a flex room which could serve as an office or gym. The spacious deck leads to a custom flagstone patio with knee wall, and the owners' passion for lush landscaping is evident at every turn. The HVAC system, water heater, and Bosch dishwasher were all replaced in 2024 and a new roof was installed in 2019. An extensive list of additional updates is available upon request. Special is an understatement when it comes to the intentional upgrades and inspired improvements made throughout every inch of this meticulously maintained property. This home is in a class of its own. NO HOA.
