Property Description

Welcome to 5156 Ilchester Woods Way, where over 2,500 square feet of thoughtfully updated living space meets a picture-perfect setting. Nestled on a 0.33-acre lot in the sought-after Ilchester Woods community, this beautifully maintained Colonial backs to open space with tranquil views of the community pond and a neighboring horse farm , your own private retreat in the heart of Ellicott City.

Step inside to a bright, two-story foyer accented by a newly rebuilt staircase (2021) that sets the tone for the home's inviting aesthetic. To the right, a private home office with new French doors (2023) provides an ideal space for remote work or study. To the left, a formal dining room offers an elegant setting for gatherings. Rich, wide-plank hardwood flooring spans the entire main level, adding warmth and continuity throughout.

At the rear of the home, the fully remodeled, open-concept kitchen and family room serve as the heart of the house. The kitchen boasts 42” cabinetry, granite countertops, a gas cooktop with hood, French door oven, new microwave (2023), new dishwasher (2025), and an oversized island with breakfast bar. A bay window fills the breakfast area with natural light perfect for casual dining, while the adjacent family room provides expansive views of the serene backyard.

The home has seen extensive updates, including full replacement of all first and second floor windows — plus the garage windows in 2023, enhancing energy efficiency, curb appeal, and comfort.

Upstairs, the airy primary suite features vaulted ceilings, a spacious walk-in closet, and a refreshed en-suite bath with a brand new soaking tub (2025). Two additional generously sized bedrooms and a second full bath, updated with new hardware (2025), complete the level. The upper floor has been refreshed with new carpet (2021), offering a clean, comfortable feel.

The fully finished walk-out lower level has been transformed into a stylish, light-filled in-law suite. Complete with new LVP flooring (2022), a second full kitchen (new refrigerator, refinished counters, updated backsplash and hardware in 2022), and a full bath, this level offers flexibility for guest quarters, multigenerational living, or entertaining.

Step outside to enjoy an expansive deck (stained regularly), a new firepit (2024), a freshly repainted 8x10 shed (2025), and a Finnish sauna installed in 2024, tucked beneath the deck and surrounded by professional landscaping for privacy and tranquility. Additional highlights include a Tesla charger (2024), new fence lighting (2024), and a private footbridge leading to the peaceful community pond.

This one-of-a-kind property blends thoughtful updates with natural beauty and neighborhood charm ready to welcome you home.
