**Assumable 2.625% Rate Loan (terms/conditions apply)**. You’ll find charm, character, and opportunity at 300 Hickory Circle, a cheerful 2-bedroom, 2-bath carriage house in the sought-after Hickory Ridge community. The developers built this as the original model home on a preferred lot location and the current owners have filled it with thoughtful upgrades and an enchanting garden. With 1,526 sq ft of well-designed, one-level living on a 0.2-acre lot backing to forest, this home offers space, privacy, and a chance to expand. Move through the light-filled foyer into a spacious great room with soaring 10’ ceilings and laminate flooring (installed in 2023). The updated kitchen includes stainless steel appliances from 2024—refrigerator, microwave, and dishwasher—and ample counter space for a coffee bar, plus a breakfast nook that flexes easily as an office, play space, or sitting area. The generously sized primary suite and second bedroom both feature walk-in closets and wide-louvered plantation shutters. The owners renovated both bathrooms in 2024 with style and care. The laundry room—complete with washer and dryer that convey—also serves as a mudroom with direct access to the two-car garage and shaded back patio. The home’s layout keeps everything on one level, and the owners added grab bars for enhanced mobility. A pull-down attic provides access to a fully roughed-in second floor—adding square feet of opportunity. The owners laid the subfloor, roughed in plumbing and electrical, and replaced the gables. Just add stairs to finish this level into extra bedrooms, a media room, home gym, or whatever fits your needs. Outside, the covered front porch offers space for rocking chairs and overlooks lush landscaping that blooms across all four seasons. In the fenced backyard, enjoy a professionally hardscaped patio and grilling area (2022) with upgraded drainage and grading. A garden shed adds convenient storage. The owners have invested in key improvements over the past four years, including: new roof (2024), new kitchen appliances (2024), renovated bathrooms (2024), wood-burning fireplace with custom stone hearth (2022), interior garage stairs (2025), street-line piping replaced, backyard fencing and hardscaping (2022), updated flooring (2022), and seasonal garden landscaping. The Hickory Ridge HOA covers lawn care and snow removal in unfenced areas and offers access to the neighborhood playground. While this isn’t a 55+ community, the property taxes run lower than many age-restricted neighborhoods nearby. You’re just minutes from downtown La Plata, schools, shops, restaurants, and parks. This home isn’t just a place to live—it’s a space to grow, both inside and out. Come see why 300 Hickory Circle stands apart from cookie-cutter homes. Please allow one hour’s notice for showings.
