About This Home

As of June 2019

OPEN SATURDAY 2-4 PM. I have always found Major's choice to be the gem of Bel Air. It's a true hidden treasure. This is an adorable community with 2 ponds and 2 playgrounds. It's in walking distance to the town of Bel Air that has stores, restaurants and events. You can also easily walk/drive to Shamrock Park, which has craft fairs, movie in the park nights and live bands in the Amphitheater. Lastly you are a short distance to Rockfield Manor and the adjacent ball field for fun events like the Kite festival and this is where they shoot off the fireworks on the 4th of July. It really is the perfect place to reside! And this home will wow you!! Huge corner lot with a fenced in rear. Plenty of beautiful shrubbery, flowers and trees. The home itself has so many fabulous, recent updates. Brothers recently totally updated this kitchen with silestone countertops, brand new cabinets and top of the line stainless steel appliances. Even if you don't like to cook, you will want to once you see this kitchen! And it s a perfect layout with the family room, dining room and breakfast nook off of the kitchen. The family room has a wood burning fireplace with two skylights and a slider to the rear deck. There is a formal living room also which can be used for that, a play room/office you decide. There is brand new carpeting throughout the home and fresh paint in many rooms. With every step you will feel the excitement that this is what you have been waiting for! The master bedroom is huge and it has a master bathroom and a walk in closet with closet organizers. Large bedrooms and lighted celling fans upstairs. The lower level has a walk out and is partially studded (one partially finished room) if you desire to finish it. And wait till you see the rear yard. Plenty of room to relax or garden or run around in. And not only is there a 2-car garage, but there is an oversized driveway. Lastly, the homeowners purchased solar panels. No lease, you own these!! And wait till you see the low monthly utility bills. That alone will make you want to buy this house!!! Newer Siding, beautiful landscaping, so many updates... This really is "the one". Home Warranty too! Hurry before you miss out. Make your appointment today. You will not be disappointed!
