DESCRIPTION
In the words of the sellers, themselves:
When we found our home at 8739 Mary Ln., we were pleased to find a single family home that was basically brand new (original owner was a single chef that worked in DC and had never even put furniture in the house, paint on the walls or even nail holes in the walls). The house was as if it had just been build. We also really loved that there was no HOA on a large, quiet lot in Howard County. The way the house is angled gives you a very large backyard and you're not facing any neighbors. Because the neighbors behind us have a forest conservation area - they can't really use their back yard so we've enjoyed all the space with the additional benefit of privacy. We quickly learned that our home was close to EVERYTHING!
We love our custom built deck with privacy fence and lighted posts. The backyard is very private with a tree lined conservation area backing up to our lot. We have enjoyed many backyard barbecues and family gatherings on the deck. During the cold months, we have also hosted many family gatherings in the dining room. My husband's family is large, so we have enjoyed everyone's company during Thanksgiving and Christmas.
We have made several home improvements since purchasing the home. None of the rooms had paint on the walls when we moved in, so we have painted all of the rooms in the house. We have also made upgrades in the kitchen by adding granite counter tops and stainless steel appliances. The mantel was our addition to the fireplace. Our biggest project was the custom built deck. My husband did all of the work from the creation of the deck plans to the selection of the materials and the detailed craftsmanship used to create the privacy screen. It is by far our favorite home improvement accomplishment.
Our neighbors are very friendly and most families have children with a wide range of ages (infant-preteens). We also like that it's a very small neighborhood tucked away on a cul-de-sac. No through traffic of any kind.
We love living in the Columbia area because we have 4 conveniently located Starbucks no more than 3 miles in any direction. We also love the dry cleaners, car wash, Royal Farms Redbox and drive through Dunkin Donuts, which are less than 1 mile away. We love the convenience of Lifetime Fitness. The facility is open 24 hours and has phenomenal equipment, classes and an indoor and outdoor pool and is a 5 min drive. Tons of fun for the entire family! Target, Lowe's, Home Depot, Wegmans, Wal-Mart, BJ's, Costco -- you name it - no more than 5 miles away. One of my favorite places to shop has been The Columbia Mall, which is less than 10 miles away. Some of our favorite restaurants in the area are Macaroni Grill, PF Changs, Cheesecake Factory, Chipotle, Potbelly, and Famous Dave's Barbecue. My favorite grocery store is Harris Teeter. I love saving money with coupons and my favorite trips to Harris Teeter involve their Super Double Coupons, when the store will double coupons up to $1.99!!! If you are looking for a specialty grocery store, then Wegmans, a two-story specialty grocery store, is only 3 miles away.
We moved to Howard County because of the schools. As an administrator at a Howard County Public School, I can attest to the exceptional quality of the teaching staff at each of the schools. Guilford Elementary School, Patuxent Valley Middle School and Hammond High School are the neighborhood schools. One of the best things about Guilford Elementary School is that the school has additional funding sources, which allow the school to maintain small class sizes and small group instruction that is tailored to each child's academic needs.
"Welcome to Me"
Welcome to me. I am bursting at the seams with warmth & love. I have happily sheltered & raised a family of 5 for more that the last 14 years. Many, many friends & relatives have found comfort, shelter & laughter under my roof and within my walls.
I have aided in warming the air when it is cold and cooling everyone down when it gets hot outside. My doors have been removed when slammed. I have seen my share of time-outs.
If I had arms, I would hug along with all the hugs. If I had lips, I would kiss along with all the kisses. There have been more of those than I have square feet. I really like that.
I have supported the pitter patter of tiny feet as well as the stomps up the steps of pre-teens and teenagers. I have found comfort in the sounds of the steps of the ones who have taken care of me. Many parts of me have been replaced to make me a better house and I have never felt more capable of providing what is needed from me.
I have to admit that I have been eavesdropping and know that my family is moving. I will miss them deeply. It seems that the one they call mom is taking a job too far away to stay here and she is taking the one they call dad with her. This makes me very sad, but, I have to be honest...I can't wait to meet my new family. I look forward to absorbing the sounds and feelings so that they become my own. I wonder if they will be familiar to me. I hope so.
If you are meant to be my new family...then...Welcome to me!
Love, Hugs & Kisses,
The House |
