Few communities deliver the kind of diversity of construction, focus on landscape and architecture, and pride of ownership as can be found in the Howard County community of Forest Glen. Surrounded by Hobbit's Glen Golf Course and the Middle Patuxent River and Environmental Area, Forest Glen is the estate-home community of which you have been seeking. This impressive, four-side brick Williamsburg Builders home with a side-entry, three-car garage is among those with the highest of elevations. The completely custom construction combines with an idyllic setting of mature specimen trees, a re-circulating stream with waterfalls, and a view of the manicured greens of the Hobbit's Glen Golf Course to bring a residence and location that few will match. An elegant entry foyer with turned-stair, columned entries, two-story ceiling heights, and a second-floor overlook frame the open floor plan, and the selection of natural materials and designer decor blend attraction. Formal spaces spill into casual family areas to elevate intimate home living as well as the entertainment opportunity experience. A dramatic family room with a floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace flows into a designer kitchen featuring high-end and quality improvements. The Italian Fusion marble countertops are works of art and your gourmet chef will beam with excitement at the sight of the thoughtful workflow and placement of specialty appliances including under-counter refrigerators and built-in Miele coffee center.
