Here is what the Seller has to say:
This home truly has it all convenience, tranquility, and community. It's close to everything: shopping, healthcare, parks, restaurants, and major commuter routes. Despite facing a beautiful park, it's remarkably quiet. The kitchen is perfect for cooking for large groups of people, and the oversized bedroom offers plenty of space to relax. One of my favorite parts of the house is the incredible entertaining space in the lower level. As a wine buff the charming, almost hidden, wine room and then convenient bar area is always a fun evening.
As an end unit, it also enjoys extra privacy, and directly across the street is a protected wilderness area - ideal for nature lovers.
We've been fortunate to have the most outstanding next-door neighbor anyone could ask for. They'll be dearly missed, though we hope they'll come visit us in New Mexico!
The HOA is exceptional, with modest fees that cover access to multiple parks, an Olympic-sized pool, a large fitness center with exercise classes, and regular community events. There's even a neighborhood swim team! Within the community, you'll also find shopping, restaurants, a pharmacy, an auto repair shop, a spa, and several healthcare providers - all just a short walk away.
Our block has its own traditions too, like the annual Father's Day Crab Feast, which speaks to the strong sense of camaraderie in the neighborhood.
Fulton is a safe, quiet, and incredibly convenient place to live - offering close proximity to Columbia without the higher town fees.
We also love the local dining scene. Ananda serves the best Indian food I've had in the U.S. Facci offers excellent Italian dishes at great prices, and their wine specials are so good, I've even added a few bottles to my collection. Lib's Grill is a favorite for drinks and appetizers, and there are many more great restaurants nearby.
The area has a charming, rural feel, yet it's close to everything you need. I can get to work in 10 minutes, and it's only 2 minutes to Routes 29 and 32, and 5 minutes to I-95 - making trips to D.C., Virginia, and Baltimore incredibly easy.
You won't be disappointed if you move to Maple Lawn. It's a warm, welcoming community that we've truly loved being a part of.
