Welcome to 5686 French Avenue, a spacious split-level home nestled on a picturesque lot in the desirable Carrol Estates community of Sykesville. A charming covered front porch creates a warm welcome and sets the stage for the inviting interior.

This level also features backyard access, two additional bedrooms, a full bath, and a convenient laundry area. An unfinished basement level offers abundant storage space and endless possibilities for future expansion, a workshop, home gym, or hobby area. Outdoor living is equally impressive with a screened-in patio, custom rear patio, fenced backyard, and an expansive tree-lined lot that provides a peaceful and private backdrop. Whether hosting summer barbecues, enjoying outdoor recreation, or simply unwinding in nature, this property offers plenty of space to enjoy.
