Property Description
Spacious, refreshed, and privately situated with peaceful wooded views, this brick-front Colonial in McDonogh Oaks offers nearly 3,000 finished square feet, 4 bedrooms, 2.5 baths, a two-car garage, and an expansive main-level living area. Set along a quiet no-through street, the home features fresh neutral paint, brand-new carpeting throughout, and a welcoming interior with timeless details. A grand two-story foyer makes a striking first impression, with a sweeping waterfall staircase and stunning classic checkerboard tile flooring. To the left, the spacious formal living room features a large bay window and flows into the adjoining dining room, where a tray ceiling and second bay window add architectural interest. To the right of the foyer, a hallway leads to the powder room and generously sized laundry/mudroom, offering plenty of space for a drop zone and convenient access to the attached two-car garage. At the heart of the home, the expansive kitchen and family room are completely open, creating an inviting space for gathering and entertaining. The kitchen features timeless 42-inch natural oak cabinetry, an L-shaped island, a dedicated work center, a large double-door pantry, and abundant counter and cabinet space. The adjoining family room features a gas fireplace with mantel, while transom-topped windows bring in additional natural light. Just beyond the kitchen, the sunny morning room is surrounded by windows on three sides, offering peaceful views of the trees and wooded common area. Sliding glass doors open to a low-maintenance composite deck with vinyl railings, extending the living space outdoors. Upstairs, the exceptionally spacious primary suite features a sitting room bump-out with additional windows, an oversized walk-in closet with its own window, and a generously proportioned private bath with double vanity, soaking tub, and separate shower. Three additional well-sized bedrooms, each with ample closet space, share a second full bath. Fresh paint and new carpeting extend throughout the upper level. The walkout lower level offers high ceilings, sliding glass doors to the rear patio, and plenty of room for storage or future finishing. Outside, the rear yard transitions to the community woods, creating a surprisingly private setting. Additional highlights include a paved driveway with parking for four vehicles, a replacement roof, updated heating and cooling systems, and an oversized water heater. Centrally located, this home offers convenient access to shopping, dining, and entertainment in Owings Mills, including Foundry Row and Metro Centre, along with major commuter routes including 795, 695, and Route 26. Outdoor recreation is close at hand, with hiking and nature trails at Soldiers Delight Natural Environment Area, athletic fields and playgrounds at Northwest Regional Park, and nature programs and trails at Irvine Nature Center. With its generous living spaces, refreshed interior, and peaceful wooded setting, 9012 Forest Oaks Road is completely move-in ready and offers a fresh, neutral canvas to make it entirely your own.
