TRUE ONE-LEVEL LIVING: Beautifully renovated ranch-style home with a fully remodeled kitchen and bathrooms. All 2,000 square feet of living space are on the same level — no stairs and no basement laundry. STUDIO: This flexible living space is fully insulated and finished as an interior room, with an epoxy floor and its own zoned HVAC system. It has a separate outside entrance, and convenient access to the driveway parking spaces. High-insulation garage doors were installed instead of building a fourth wall, providing natural light while preserving the exterior appearance of the home. One garage door remains fully operational. The studio is currently configured as an office and family room/bunk room for grandchildren. It could also serve as a fourth bedroom or a private office. ENERGY EFFICIENCY: The entire HVAC system was replaced in 2024 with a high-efficiency heat pump system. The old insulation and ductwork were replaced with insulating foam and new modern ductwork, sealing the attic and creating a conditioned storage space. The windows are double-paned and have High-E film. In 2025, the average monthly BG&E bill for the whole house was $235. ELECTRICAL SERVICE: During the 2024 renovation, the old aluminum wiring was replaced with copper wiring throughout the house. The new system features 200-amp electrical service with a second panel suitable for solar and EV charging. The primary bedroom is pre-wired for a ceiling fan. APPLIANCES: All high-end appliances convey with the house, including both refrigerators, the washer/dryer, and the microwave. All appliances are two years old and under warranty. The range has a double-door system that allows it to convert into two separate ovens. BATHROOMS: Both bathrooms were upgraded in 2025. There is a thermostatically controlled, constant-temperature shower in the primary en-suite bath, and a deep soaking tub in the hall bath. ACCESSIBILITY / EASY-LIVING FEATURES: This is a true one-level house with all 2,000 square feet on the same level, including the laundry room. There are lever handles and pulls instead of knobs, drawer inserts in lower cabinets, and a raised dryer platform — features that make daily life easier for everyone. There is a lockable gate in the back fence with a handrail that gives direct access to the pathways, basketball courts, and playing fields behind the house. The ramp at the front door is very convenient and easily removable. LOCATION: Located in Running Brook in the Village of Wilde Lake, this home offers the Columbia lifestyle with unusual single-level convenience. This detached ranch-style home has a private fenced yard, direct access to open-space pathways, and close proximity to parks, shopping, dining, entertainment, and the village amenities.
