About this home
This meticulously updated, stunning 6.3-acre equestrian estate in the highly coveted Marriotts Ridge High School district is located just a 5-minute drive from Historic Sykesville. Perfectly sited to capture gorgeous sunset and pasture views, this solid brick rancher has been masterfully reimagined with extensive recent interior upgrades, highlighted by a breathtaking new Primary Suite (2022). Formerly an attached apartment, this private wing now features a dedicated HVAC unit, an oversized walk-in closet with custom organizers, and a spa-like luxury en-suite bathroom complete with a steam shower, heated floors, and heated towel racks
The main level has an open floor plan with gleaming hardwood floors, fresh paint, and newly added ceiling fans in all bedrooms. The refreshed kitchen features painted cabinets with new hardware, a new refrigerator and dishwasher (2022), granite countertops, and a new sliding glass door that seamlessly connects the indoor living space to the expansive multi-level deck. The walk-out lower level has been heavily upgraded with new Luxury Vinyl Plank (LVP) flooring, recessed lighting, a completely remodeled full bathroom with a new entrance, and a dedicated theater room boasting new carpet and professional wiring for 11 speakers, a subwoofer, and a projector. Everyday farm living is made easy with an oversized double mudroom/tack room offering a newer washer and dryer, and ample cabinetry and storage.
Critical home infrastructure has been completely overhauled for total peace of mind. Recent capital investments include a reinforced front foundation, fresh blown-in attic insulation, comprehensive professional rebuilds and stainless steel liners for both chimneys, and a state-of-the-art water filtration system featuring a new 32-gallon pressure tank, metered chemical feed, and dual sediment/iron filters.
Outside, the property is an entertainer’s dream, featuring a Timbertech AZEK deck and a beautiful saltwater pool with well-maintained equipment. The grounds have been thoughtfully landscaped, including the strategic removal of 15 trees to open the space and the addition of 9 trees near the lower barn for natural screening.
For the equestrian, this property is exceptionally well-appointed and move-in ready for your horses. The facility includes a 20m x 60m blue stone outdoor riding ring, a large tractor shed (recently upgraded with electrical outlets and lighting), and a 2-stall upper run-in barn enhanced with two new dry lots and an approximate 45-bale hay shed. The lower barn features a hay loft and has been converted into two massive stalls, each opening directly to their own dedicated sacrifice lots. The premium pastures feature automatic self-cleaning waterers, 4-board front fencing, and have been meticulously managed with annual soil testing, fertilizing, liming, and overseeding, complete with convenient new fence cut-throughs for easy human traffic.
Located on a private road with no HOA and RRDEO zoning, you can enjoy ultimate peace, privacy, and agricultural freedom while being just a 10-minute hack to the trails of Patapsco Valley State Park, minutes from Route 32, and a 5-minute drive from Historic Sykesville. Historic Sykesville popular for its boutique shopping options, local events, as well as its many dining options including cafes, bistros, and restaurants....
