Most desirable first-floor, walk-out level condo in sought-after Oakland Mills! Newly renovated top to bottom and priced to sell. The brand-new kitchen shines with quartz counters, timeless backsplash, new cabinetry, and stainless steel appliances. New flooring runs throughout, plus updated light fixtures and bath exhaust fans. Two large bedrooms, both filled with natural light — the primary suite is 13'5" x 13' with a walk-in closet, and the second bedroom is generously sized with a double-wide closet. The updated Jack-and-Jill bath is a standout: two separate vanity areas — one entered from the primary suite, one from the hallway — each with its own new toilet and sink, connected by a shared center shower with a new surround. The result is true en-suite privacy for the primary bedroom that still functions as a full hall bath, without ever sharing a sink or toilet. The living room stretches over 20 feet, opening to one of the home's best features: a private, brick-paved walkout patio enclosed by a privacy wall, backing to open green space and mature trees — it feels like your own slice of nature. Enjoy the community's outdoor courts just a short walk away — a favorite spot for residents' pickleball games. Don't miss this one — you'll love calling it home!

A Once-in-a-Lifetime Emerald Sanctuary: 11.9 Acres in the Heart of Ellicott City Experience the Unattainable: Your Private Nature Preserve Awaits Rarely does an opportunity arise to own a sprawling, nearly 12-acre contiguous landscape in one of Howard County’s most prestigious and sought-after zip codes. This is not just a "lot"—it is a vast, verdant sanctuary that offers a front-row seat to the breathtaking beauty of Maryland’s grand nature. The Topography: A Rare Stream-Valley Floor This is a true "bottomland" sanctuary. The lot features a classic stream-valley floor topography, providing a level, accessible expanse that is increasingly rare in the rolling hills of Howard County. With elevations ranging up to the 375.0' mark, the land offers a sense of tucked-away seclusion, sitting below the ridge lines to create a quiet, temperature-moderated microclimate perfect for rare flora and local fauna. The Landscape: A Symphony of Water and Wood Centered around the gentle, winding waters of the Plumtree Branch stream, this stunning 11.910-acre parcel serves as a private corridor for Maryland’s most majestic wildlife. Imagine owning both banks of a shimmering waterway, where the air is cooler under a canopy of mature hardwoods and the only soundtrack is the rhythmic flow of the stream and the call of the Red-shouldered Hawk. The Opportunity: Beyond the "Build" While designated as a non buildable 100-year floodplain and drainage easement—meaning your views will never be obstructed by future development—the possibilities for this land are as vast as the acreage itself: A Birder’s Paradise: Establish a premier bird-watching station in a critical local habitat. Legacy Conservation: Become a steward of the land, preserving a vital piece of Ellicott City’s natural heritage. The Ultimate Garden: Utilize the rich, alluvial soils of the valley floor for expansive hobby gardening or create a world-class native plant arboretum. Recreational Escape: Your own private grounds for morning yoga by the water, weekend picnicking, or a serene space for plein air painting and photography. The "Buffer" of a Lifetime: For neighboring homeowners, this is the ultimate opportunity to control your "viewshed" and ensure your backyard remains a lush, private forest forever. Location, Location, Legacy Accessible via the quiet, established enclave of Joey Drive, you are minutes from the historic charm of Old Town Ellicott City, yet you will feel worlds away. An Unbeatable Value Land of this scale in Ellicott City is typically reserved for multi-million dollar estates. Because this lot is preserved for nature and drainage, it is being offered at an unbelievable price point that makes owning a double-digit acre estate a reality. Don't just buy land—buy a legacy. Secure your 12-acre slice of Maryland’s "Green Gold" today.
