Built by Williamsburg Homes, this beautifully upgraded Emerson model offers the rare combination of elegant design, comfortable main-level living, and a peaceful wooded setting that feels tucked away from it all—while remaining wonderfully convenient to the shopping and dining of Maple Lawn, major commuter routes such as 95, 32, and 29, along with the many amenities of Howard County. From the moment you arrive, the home makes an impression. A gracious full front porch sits beneath the shade of a perfectly placed cherry tree, surrounded by beautifully maintained landscaping that creates a warm and welcoming entrance.

The family room features handsome coffered ceilings and a gas fireplace, creating a comfortable place to unwind at the end of the day. Just beyond, the kitchen and breakfast area flow naturally toward the Trex deck, where mature woods provide a serene backdrop for morning coffee, evening dinners, or simply enjoying a little peace and quiet. A formal dining room offers an elegant setting for celebrations, while the private library or den provides the perfect retreat for reading, working, or pursuing a favorite hobby. The main-level primary suite feels like a home within the home. Spacious and private, it features an impressive walk-in closet and a luxurious bath with a large walk-in shower and separate soaking tub—an inviting place to begin and end each day.

Built-in whole-home audio with Sonos control right from your phone adds yet another refined touch to a home designed to be enjoyed. Upstairs, two additional bedrooms and a full bathroom provide comfortable, private accommodations for guests without sacrificing the ease of main-level living. The walk-out lower level takes the home to another level entirely. A spacious recreation room is anchored by a premium 135-inch home theater system featuring JVC projector and Meridian Class A surround sound system, creating an exceptional setting for movie nights, sporting events, and entertaining. A fourth sun-lit bedroom and full bathroom offer another option for your guests’ private retreat, while a dedicated sauna room provides an unexpected touch of relaxation and luxury.

Whether relaxing beneath the covered front porch, entertaining on the Trex deck, or simply taking in the serene beauty of the wooded backdrop, this is a home that that can handle all of the excitement, but also invites you to slow down and enjoy where you are.
