Welcome to this stately center hall colonial in the Willows of Ruxton! Located in the highly desirable and conveniently situated neighborhood, this meticulously maintained colonial has been lovingly cared for by its original owners. With outstanding curb appeal and over 3,300 square feet of finished living space across three levels, this home offers both timeless character and exceptional versatility. A tasteful bluestone walkway leads to the front entry, setting the tone for what's inside. A sunlit two-story foyer welcomes you with gleaming hardwood floors, 9' ceilings, elegant moldings, fresh paint and abundant natural light. The traditional floor plan flows effortlessly across spacious main-level rooms, including a formal living room and dining room, and a bright, airy kitchen that opens to the breakfast room, where expansive backyard views create a peaceful backdrop. The kitchen features 42-inch oak cabinetry, updated stainless-steel appliances, a center island with seating and extra storage, and a walk-in pantry. The oversized family room is the true heart of the home, with a vaulted ceiling, plantation shutters, extensive built-ins and a raised-hearth brick wood-burning fireplace. French doors lead to a maintenance-free deck and brick patio - perfect for summer meals, outdoor entertaining or simply relaxing. The spectacular backyard is level, private, fully fenced, surrounded by mature landscaping, and refreshingly low-maintenance, with a separate shed for additional storage. Upstairs, four light-filled bedrooms include a spacious primary suite with two closets and an en suite bath. The hall bath was beautifully renovated in 2021. The partially finished lower level adds versatile living space, a powder room, a separate laundry room and abundant storage. Additional highlights include an oversized front-load two-car garage and exceptional convenience to hospitals, downtown Towson and the Baltimore Beltway - all zoned for excellent schools. The location, the lot and the layout make this home as versatile as it is desirable. This one is not to be missed!
