1216 Western Chapel Road • New Windsor, MD 21776

Don't let the rocking chairs fool you. This is not your grandma's Cape Cod. From the road, it has all the charm you'd expect from a classic country home. Step inside this 6 years young home, however, and you'll find soaring ceilings, sun-filled spaces, and a floor plan designed for the way people live today. The two-story living room immediately commands attention, anchored by a beautiful fireplace that serves as the focal point of the home. White-washed wide plank hardwood floors flow throughout the main level, reflecting natural light and creating a bright, welcoming feel. The open kitchen was designed to be part of the conversation, not hidden from it. Whether you're preparing dinner, helping with homework, or entertaining friends, it connects effortlessly to the dining and living spaces. Recent additions include a Bosch refrigerator and KitchenAid dishwasher, while a propane line has already been installed should the next owner dream of a gas range. The primary suite is conveniently located on the main level, and with almost no steps required to enter the home, everyday living couldn't be easier. Upstairs, you'll find two generously sized bedrooms connected by a full bath, creating the perfect space for family, guests, or a home office setup. Then there's the lower level. This isn't the typical basement hidden below grade. Professionally finished with custom details designed to match the rest of the home, it includes a huge family room, dedicated play space, a fourth bedroom, full bath, recessed lighting throughout, and direct walkout access to the backyard. It's the kind of space that adapts as life changes. One of the home's most overlooked luxuries is its premium whole-house water treatment system. This isn't a basic filter tucked away in the utility room. It's a high-end system designed to deliver exceptional water quality throughout the entire home. The difference is noticeable from the first glass. Crisp, clean, great-tasting water flows from every faucet, while the treatment system also helps protect plumbing fixtures and appliances. It's one of those investments that quietly improves everyday life, providing the kind of water quality that's often difficult to find in rural properties. Outside, the owners have invested heavily in creating something special. The entire acre was transformed with topsoil, seeding, and hydro-seeding. A $20,000 fence encloses the property, including a gated driveway and separate backyard area that creates a safe place for children and pets to play. New landscaping, flowering hydrangeas, trees, and boxwoods frame the home beautifully. The result is a property that feels established, private, and loved. Four bedrooms. Three and a half baths. Three finished levels. A fully fenced acre. Sophisticated water treatment system. Sweeping countryside views as far as the eye can see, but the privacy you desire. And just minutes from the vibrant hub of Westminster. Some homes check the boxes. This one tells a story. USDA loan eligible. View this listing at: http://www.gretchenraad.com/mls=MDCR2035774
