About This Home

Welcome to this beautifully maintained 5-bedroom, 3.5-bath home in the highly sought-after neighborhood of The Willows in Ellicott City. Perfectly situated on a serene .38-acre lot, the property is surrounded by mature trees that create a peaceful, park-like setting with the feel of a private arboretum. Entertaining on the patio is a true delight, offering the sensation of being perched in a tree house amidst lush greenery.

Inside, the spacious layout offers versatility and comfort with a formal living room, office, large family room with cozy fireplace and kitchen. The fully finished, on-grade lower level features a large living area (ideal for gatherings) along with a private bedroom and full bathroom suite—perfect for guests, extended family, or entertaining. Upstairs, generous bedrooms and open living spaces provide a warm and inviting atmosphere

One of the community’s most desirable features is the absence of an HOA, giving homeowners freedom and flexibility while still enjoying the beauty and prestige of The Willows. Centrally located in Ellicott City, this home offers direct access to walking trails, playgrounds, and picnic areas at Centennial Park. Combining privacy, charm, and convenience in one of Howard County’s most sought-after settings, it provides the perfect balance of lifestyle and location. This home won't last long!
