PRACTICALLY A HOME IN A PARK – A One-of-a-Kind Private Retreat! You won't find another property like this in Howard County. Nestled on five private acres, this unique home is virtually surrounded by protected land—bordered on three sides by State Parks and Forest. A scenic trail winds down to the beautiful Patapsco River, offering direct access to nature right from your backyard.
Despite the tranquil, secluded setting, you're just minutes from everyday conveniences: shopping centers, I-95, BWI Airport, Amtrak, and Rockburn Branch Park are all nearby.
The home itself is a blend of historic charm and modern updates. Originally built in the 1920s, the character-filled staircase to the second floor transports you back in time. Meanwhile, the kitchen, living room, and downstairs half bath have been tastefully updated for today’s lifestyle.
Step outside and unwind in your private hot tub—perfect for relaxing with a drink after a long day, or enjoying a cozy soak as snow begins to fall.
The property also features several outbuildings, including two sheds with electricity—ideal for workshops, storage, or creative spaces. With no HOA and endless possibilities, this is a rare opportunity for those who want to live close to nature without sacrificing convenience.
If you're seeking a peaceful retreat with room to grow, explore, and dream—welcome home. If you want a home in the park this is your opportunity, schedule your showing now before its gone.
