ONE EXTRAORDINARY HOME. THREE DISTINCT LIVING POSSIBILITIES. ALMOST ENDLESS POTENTIAL. Welcome to 8502 Dark Hawk Circle, an approximately 5,500-square-foot Columbia residence that offers something far more valuable than size alone: options. Set on an oversized corner lot and offering 5–6 bedrooms, 5½ baths and multiple distinct living areas, this remarkable property can function as one grand residence—or provide the framework for three separate living environments under one roof: the primary residence, an already licensed private in-law/au pair apartment, and an expansive lower level offering additional possibilities for guest accommodations, extended family or potential future rental use, subject to applicable Howard County approvals. The existing Howard County Rental Housing License for Apartment B, the private in-law suite, immediately distinguishes this home from the ordinary. With its own entrance, living area, bedroom, full bath, wheelchair-accessible curbless shower and organized closets, it provides genuine independence while keeping loved ones close. Now imagine the possibilities. Live in the main residence while a parent or adult child enjoys a private apartment. Rent the licensed suite and use the income to help offset your mortgage. Create another private living environment on the lower level. Or design a true multigenerational household where grandparents, parents and adult children can each enjoy privacy while remaining together under one roof. For the entrepreneurial buyer, the possibilities become even more compelling. With approximately 5,500 square feet and multiple flexible spaces, this may be an exceptional setting for a home-based professional practice or family business—perhaps childcare or nursery services, mental-health or wellness services, an aesthetician or beauty practice, tax preparation, consulting, accounting or a law practice—subject, of course, to applicable zoning, licensing, HOA and governmental requirements. Imagine living upstairs, operating your business from home and generating rental income elsewhere within the property. Or housing multiple generations while eliminating the cost of separate office space. Or maintaining a beautiful traditional family residence today while preserving the flexibility to reconfigure portions of the home as your needs change tomorrow. Few properties provide that kind of optionality. And all of this comes wrapped inside an extensively refreshed home featuring warm, freshly painted interiors, refinished hardwood flooring, plush luxury carpeting, custom tilework, an updated kitchen with stainless-steel appliances and farmhouse sink, updated lighting, two recently installed HVAC systems, 5½ updated baths, a recently resurfaced deck and an oversized corner homesite within walking distance of neighborhood schools. At a time when a property approaching 5,500 square feet in Howard County for under $1 million is already increasingly difficult to find, 8502 Dark Hawk Circle offers something even rarer: A home that can change with you. A traditional family home. A multigenerational residence. A home plus licensed apartment. A residence with mortgage-offsetting rental income. A live/work environment. A family home paired with a family business. A property with multiple private living zones. Or some combination of them all. One address. Multiple lifestyles. Extraordinary flexibility. 8502 Dark Hawk Circle isn't simply a place to live—it is a property that can potentially house your family, support your business, generate income and adapt to the next chapter of your life, all under one roof. More space. More independence. More income possibilities. More ways to live. That is what makes 8502 Dark Hawk Circle truly different.

A two-story foyer welcomes you into this freshly painted, move-in-ready home! The kitchen is newly renovated with 42" cabinets, quartz counters, a tiled backsplash, new LVT flooring, and stainless appliances. It's open to the family room, so whoever is cooking isn't cut off from everyone gathered around the wood-burning fireplace. The family room has new carpet and large windows that let in plenty of light. It connects to an office finished with the same new carpet—a quiet spot for work or study. Off the kitchen, a screened porch with a vaulted ceiling and skylights offers outdoor relaxation three seasons a year and the adjacent deck overlooking wooded common area is perfect for cookouts. Upstairs, all four bedrooms have new carpet and recessed lighting. The secondary bedrooms are good-sized and share a renovated hall bath with double sinks and a tiled tub. The primary suite has a vaulted ceiling, two large walk-in closets, and a step-down sitting room — use it as an office, a reading spot, whatever you need. The ensuite bath has been newly renovated too: large shower, double vanity, extra storage, and a separate water closet. The walkout lower level adds solid extra living space, with new flooring and plenty of recessed lighting, plus a large unfinished section left for storage. Even more storage is provided in the outdoor shed. HVAC is dual-zoned, and the roof is brand new (30-year shingles). This well-priced home is in the Village of River Hill, known for its schools, walking paths, community pool and rec center, and neighborhood tot lots — plus easy access to major commuter routes, shopping, and dining.

AN EXTRAORDINARY AMOUNT OF HOME FOR THE MONEY What ultimately separates 8502 Dark Hawk Circle from so many other properties is the sheer amount it offers in a single home. Approximately 5,500 square feet. 6 bedrooms. 5½ bathrooms. Private in-law/au pair accommodations. Multiple living and entertaining spaces. Two recently installed HVAC systems. Beautifully refreshed kitchen. Fresh interior paint throughout. Refinished hardwood flooring. Luxury carpeting and custom tilework. Updated lighting and fixtures. Recently resurfaced deck. Two-car garage. Oversized corner lot. And a location within walking distance of neighborhood schools. For buyers searching for more space, the numbers alone are impressive. But the true value of this property is found in how that space can be lived in. There is room here for family to come together without feeling crowded. There is room for grandparents or extended family to have privacy of their own. There is room for overnight guests, home offices, recreation, hobbies and entertaining. There is room for today's needs—and flexibility for whatever tomorrow may bring. That combination is increasingly rare. At a time when buyers throughout Howard County are often asked to compromise—choosing between size and condition, location and affordability, or privacy and convenience—8502 Dark Hawk Circle offers a refreshing alternative. Here, you don't have to sacrifice the space you want to obtain the updates you need. You don't have to give up multigenerational flexibility to remain in an established Columbia community. And you don't have to cross the million-dollar threshold to find a truly substantial home. A residence approaching 5,500 square feet with this many bedrooms and baths, this degree of flexibility, extensive recent updating and an oversized homesite represents an increasingly uncommon opportunity in Howard County at this price point. 8502 Dark Hawk Circle isn't simply about having a larger home. It is about having more room for the people you love, more flexibility for the way you live and more value for your investment. More space. More comfort. More possibilities. And an extraordinary amount of home for the money. Welcome home.
