About This Home

One-Year Home Warranty Included!

Welcome to 20045 Placid Lake Terrace — a thoughtfully updated and well-maintained townhome tucked away on a quiet cul-de-sac in the desirable Waters Landing community. Surrounded by mature trees with seasonal views of Little Seneca Lake, this home offers the perfect blend of comfort, character, and convenience.

The kitchen features granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, and heated tile flooring, opening to a sunny breakfast nook with skylights that bring in peaceful morning light. The main level also includes a spacious dining and living area with updated lighting, custom touches, and a stylish powder room.

Upstairs, the primary suite offers vaulted ceilings and an en suite bath. Two additional bedrooms and a full hall bath complete the upper level.

The fully finished walk-out basement adds flexible living space with heated tile floors, an electric fireplace, a beautifully remodeled full bath, and direct access to the backyard—currently used as a home office.

Enjoy all the amenities of Waters Landing: pools, tennis courts, playgrounds, and trails—plus easy access to Black Hill Regional Park, Germantown Town Center, Milestone Shopping Center, I-270, and the MARC train.

This is low-maintenance, move-in-ready living in one of Germantown’s most serene and private neighborhoods.
