Gaithersburg: Ranch home sits on 5.34 acres
Wide, open spaces with panoramic country views and outbuildings with plenty of room for horses are among the special features of this 1991 ranch property in Gaithersburg.
Sprawled on 5.34 lush acres, the property sits along Damascus Road/Route 108 just off of Route 650.
A long driveway leads to the house, which has a two-car, sideloading garage. A covered porch greets visitors. The sidelighted door with beveled glass opens into the large living room.
Carpet lines the floor in the living room, where a brick-surround fireplace serves as the focal point and a floor-to-ceiling double window looks out to the expansive front lawn. A lighted ceiling fan also is here.
The adjacent breakfast room has sliding French doors to the deck. The sliders bring in lots of natural light and offer a peaceful view of the rear property.
A hallway off the entry leads to three bedrooms and two full baths, including those in the master's suite.
The two smaller rooms face the front and share a hall bathroom with a tub/shower combination.
All bedrooms and the hallway have carpet.
Access to the garage is off of the breakfast room — rounding out the main level.
The basement, accessed via stairs off of the breakfast room, is finished with carpet, recessed lights and knotty-pine chair rail and paneling. The recreation room is spacious and sunny with full windows and atrium doors to the rear patio and yard, where a playset conveys.
The rec room also has a woodstove and a built-in, knotty-pine wet bar.
A stall shower/bath and a laundry/storage room also are in the walkout basement.
The property is right outside Damascus and Laytonsville, and close to the Patuxent River State Park.
