About This Home

Welcome home to this charming Cape Cod in Halethorpe Heights — a quaint, established, tree-lined neighborhood with an easygoing small-town feel, while still being close to everywhere you need to be. Start your day on the enclosed front porch with a cup of coffee, then step into a bright and inviting living room featuring high ceilings and original hardwood floors that have just been professionally restored and refinished. An arched doorway leads into the dining room and updated kitchen, where you’ll find granite countertops, a tile backsplash, refreshed cabinetry, and stainless steel appliances — including a 5-burner gas stove! Just off the kitchen, a screened porch offers easy walk-down access to the backyard, creating the perfect setup for grilling, entertaining, or relaxing evenings outdoors. Two comfortable bedrooms and a newly renovated full bath are located on the main level, while upstairs, a private third bedroom creates a cozy retreat ideal as a primary suite, guest space, family room or home office. An additional unfinished area currently serves as excellent closet and storage space, but also offers exciting future potential for a walk-in closet and en-suite bath. The owners confirmed this layout could be achieved with minimal disturbance to the first floor. The basement, accessible from the kitchen as well as multiple exterior entrances, provides flexible bonus space with a layout ideal for a rec room, workshop, home office, gym, or additional storage. You’ll also find the laundry area and extra pantry storage here, keeping daily routines neatly tucked away. Outside, the spacious yard backs to trees for a peaceful, tucked-away setting, while a nearby stream enhances the natural surroundings. With usable space in the front, side, and rear yards, there’s plenty of room for gardening, play, entertaining, or simply unwinding outdoors. Parking is easy and ample with a side asphalt driveway accommodating 3–4 vehicles, plus additional off-street parking options including extra space on the curved rear driveway. Additional updates include: Newer roof, Brand new Pella windows (excluding basement windows), Newer furnace, French drain system with sump pumps and fresh paint throughout. This location is hard to beat! Enjoy easy walking access to the shops and restaurants of downtown Arbutus, convenient commuting via the MARC Penn Line at Halethorpe Station, and quick access to I-95, I-695, University of Maryland Baltimore County, and BWI Airport. When you want fresh air, nearby Patapsco Valley State Park offers miles of scenic trails, waterfalls, biking, river spots, and picnic areas to explore. This home truly lives larger than it appears — a welcoming blend of historic charm, thoughtful updates, and everyday comfort. Don’t miss your opportunity to make this special home your own!
