Custom-painted cedar shake siding, a Pennsylvania bluestone front porch, updated exterior lighting, and a spacious driveway create a warm and welcoming first impression. Inside, the generously sized living room showcases beautifully refinished original oak hardwood floors and an updated wood-burning brick fireplace, creating a comfortable space for both everyday living and cozy gatherings.

Upstairs, the second primary bedroom offers its own en-suite bathroom and provides an excellent option for guests, extended family, or an in-law suite. A short set of stairs leads to two additional bedrooms and another remodeled full bathroom. The larger bedroom features an impressive cathedral ceiling and ceiling fan, along with an abundance of living space. The finished lower level expands the home's versatility with a spacious family/rec room, full bathroom, and a true fifth bedroom designed to meet current fire-code access requirements. Whether used as a guest suite, home office, playroom, gym, or entertainment space, this level offers tremendous flexibility. The home has been extensively updated for year-round comfort, including central air conditioning, a heat pump, boiler, updated plumbing, and electrical improvements. The bathrooms have been thoughtfully renovated with updated tile, vanities, fixtures, lighting, and finishes. Original doors and hardware have been preserved wherever possible, while newer doors were custom crafted to complement the home's original character. Additional improvements include a 30-year architectural shingle roof, asphalt driveway, garage doors, updated gutters and downspouts, exterior doors, and maintenance-free aluminum wrapping around the windows and garage trim. A relined furnace chimney and sump pump provide additional peace of mind. This is a home that has been carefully modernized without losing the character, warmth, and architectural details that make an older Catonsville home so desirable.
