...We have received multiple offers... HIGHEST & BEST deadline set... Wednesday 7/30/25 7:00 pm. Secluded Luxury Meets Everyday Comfort – .39 Private Acres of Serenity - NO HOA


Welcome to 451 Foster Branch Rd, an exceptional retreat where space, privacy, and comfort harmonize beautifully. Tucked away on a quiet, no-through street, this stone-front home offers 4,400 finished square feet of thoughtfully designed living space on .39 acres of wooded tranquility—a rare opportunity for those who crave both sophistication and seclusion. From the moment you arrive, the charming stone façade, lush mature trees, and a koi pond set a peaceful tone. Step inside the two-story foyer, filled with natural light from the large transom window, and feel the warmth of a home that has been freshly painted and meticulously updated for its next owner. The heart of the home is the sunken family room, featuring windows on three sides, vaulted ceilings, recessed lighting, and a cozy stone gas fireplace. A sunroom with its own heating and cooling extends the living space year-round, while multi-level decks with a motorized awning invite you to unwind outdoors and enjoy the serene backdrop of dense woodlands. The spacious kitchen and breakfast area are designed for both cooking and gathering, with granite counters, a large center island, stainless steel appliances, a 5-burner gas cooktop, and a double wall oven. French doors connect the kitchen to the sunroom, living room, and outdoor entertaining areas, making the flow seamless. Upstairs, the luxurious primary suite features two walk-in closets and a spa-inspired bath, complete with a garden tub, a glass-enclosed shower, and a double vanity. Three additional bedrooms, all with brand-new plush carpet and wood slat blinds, share a well-appointed hall bath. The walkout basement expands the possibilities with a fifth bedroom/bonus room or office, a full bathroom, a gym/fitness area, and a game room, creating endless flexibility for guests, hobbies, or work-from-home needs. Every major system has been cared for—a new roof and gutter guards in 2020, brand-new carpet throughout, and a fully finished basement with all-new finishes. Even the practical details are thoughtfully designed, including a main-level laundry room conveniently located off the kitchen. And while the property feels like a private hideaway, you’re still just minutes from conveniences, major routes, and water access along the Gunpowder River and Chesapeake Bay. Highlights at a Glance:
- private surrounded by mature trees & nature
- 4/5 bedrooms, 3.5 baths, 4,400 finished sq ft
- Multi-level decks with motorized awning & koi pond
- Sunroom with heat & A/C, plus dog door
- Finished basement with bedroom, gym, game room, & full bath
- Stone gas fireplace, vaulted ceilings, & abundant natural light
- New roof & gutter guards (2020), all brand-new carpet (2025)
- No through-street—peaceful & secluded

This home is truly move-in ready—all that’s left is to bring your vision and make it your own.

451 Foster Branch Rd is more than a home—it’s a lifestyle. Whether you’re looking for a serene family retreat, space for hobbies and entertaining, or simply a private escape from the hustle and bustle, this property delivers it all.
