Property Description

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

As you step through the front door, you're welcomed into a bright, two-story foyer with a newly rebuilt staircase (2021) that sets the tone for the rest of the home. To your immediate right is a private home office with new French doors (2023)- perfect for remote work or study. To the left, a formal dining room offers elegant space for entertaining. The entire main level features rich, wide-plank hardwood flooring, creating warmth and flow throughout. Moving toward the rear of the home, you'll enter the heart of the house: a fully remodeled, open-concept kitchen and family room. The kitchen is a showstopper with 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—an ideal spot for casual meals. The adjoining family room offers expansive views of the backyard, blending comfort and functionality in one open, sun-filled space.

Upstairs, you'll find the serene primary suite with vaulted ceilings, a large walk-in closet, and a private en-suite bath updated in 2025 with a new soaking tub. Two additional generously sized bedrooms and a second full bath with updated hardware (2025) complete the upper level. The entire floor has been refreshed with new carpet (2024) and offers a clean, welcoming feel.

The fully finished walk-out lower level has been tastefully renovated into a spacious, light-filled in-law suite. Featuring new LVP flooring (2022), a second full kitchen with new refrigerator, refinished counters, updated backsplash and hardware (2022), and a full bath, this level is perfect for guests, multigenerational living, or entertaining.

Outside, enjoy an expansive deck (stained regularly), new firepit (2024), repainted 8x10 shed (2025), and a Swedish sauna installed in 2024, tucked beneath the deck and surrounded by professional landscaping. Additional features include a Tesla charger (2024), new fence lighting (2024), and a private footbridge leading to the community pond.
