About This Home
Back on Market no Fault of Seller. This charming all-brick 4-bedroom, 2.5-bath Cape Cod in historic Earlewood blends timeless character with thoughtful updates and inviting living spaces throughout.
From the moment you step into the foyer, you’re welcomed by an airy cottage feel and a layout designed for both everyday comfort and intimate entertaining. The formal living room—complete with a decorative fireplace—offers flexibility as a home office and opens to a private screened porch. A dedicated dining room flows into the spacious eat-in kitchen, featuring granite countertops, stainless steel appliances (just 5 years old), a built-in microwave, and a walk-in pantry.
The cozy den with wood-burning fireplace provides the perfect gathering space and opens to a large deck overlooking the private backyard. A main-level bedroom and half bath add convenience and versatility. Upstairs, the generous primary suite includes a large en-suite bath, accompanied by two additional bedrooms—one with a standout view—and a full hall bath with classic black-and-white basketweave tile.
A spacious second-level laundry room with painted cabinetry adds everyday ease. Throughout the home, you’ll find hardwood floors, wide hallways, abundant natural light, and lots of closets with ample storage. The block-wall basement offers a rear-entry garage, additional storage, and a second laundry connection, along with easy access to the patio and charming potter’s shed.
Recent updates include rear deck wood replacement (2026), HVAC (2023), shingles (2017), tankless water heater, new attic insulation, updated irrigation system (2025), gutters (2022), and a reverse osmosis water filtration system. Located in the vibrant Earlewood community, residents enjoy access to a recreational center, frisbee golf course, multiple parks and playgrounds, ball fields, a community garden, dog park, and a charming amphitheater—offering something for everyone just moments from home. Convenient to downtown Columbia, and major interstates, this home delivers the perfect blend of character, space, and community.
