Ideally located just minutes from Deep Creek Lake, Wisp Resort, Swallow Falls State Park, and downtown Oakland, this turnkey property offers the perfect balance of privacy, recreation, and modern comfort. Originally built as a raised ranch, the home has undergone extensive improvements in recent years, transforming it into a spacious and inviting 4-bedroom, 2-bath getaway. The main level features an open-concept design with warm wood accents, updated flooring, and a renovated kitchen complete with stainless steel appliances, modern countertops, and ample space for gathering. Three bedrooms and a beautifully updated full bath with a custom tiled walk-in shower complete the upper level. The fully finished lower level significantly expands the living space, offering a large recreation room, game area, additional sleeping accommodations, laundry area, and a second fully renovated bath. A traditional staircase replaced the original spiral staircase, creating improved functionality and flow between levels. Outdoor living is where this property truly shines. Multiple gathering areas have been thoughtfully created throughout the acreage, connected by gentle walking paths that lead to unique viewpoints and hangout spaces overlooking the surrounding mountain ridge. Enjoy evenings around the fire pit area, unwind in the hot tub, or relax on the expansive rebuilt deck surrounded by nature. Mature trees, abundant privacy, and a peaceful setting make it easy to enjoy every season. Whether you're searching for a primary residence, second home, or investment opportunity, this well-maintained and extensively updated property offers the ideal Deep Creek lifestyle with room to gather, entertain, and make lasting memories.
