Welcome to the easy, connected lifestyle in Kensington/Benfield Manor, where this beautifully refreshed 3-4 bedroom rancher offers comfortable living, flexible space, and the rare advantage of being part of a water-privileged community along the Severn River. A welcoming front porch sets the tone for this inviting home. Inside, newly refinished hardwood floors extend throughout the main level, complemented by fresh paint and updated lighting. The thoughtfully designed main level features three bedrooms and two full baths, including a private primary ensuite. An updated eat-in kitchen provides a comfortable gathering space and convenient access to both the carport and backyard. Outside, enjoy a level, private backyard framed by mature trees and established landscaping. A brick patio and charming arbor create the perfect setting for al fresco dining, entertaining friends, or simply enjoying a peaceful evening outdoors. The spacious finished lower level expands the possibilities even further. Gather around the warmth of the wood-burning fireplace, take advantage of the additional full bath and laundry area, and enjoy the flexibility of a bonus room that could potentially be converted into a fourth bedroom. With its generous living space and full bath, the lower level could also serve as a private guest or in-law suite. Life in Kensington is about more than just the home. Residents enjoy access to the Severn River through the neighborhood's private boat ramp, along with a community playground and an active neighborhood calendar featuring holiday celebrations, community BBQs, visiting food trucks, and relaxed fire pit nights on the weekends. Conveniently located within walking distance of grocery stores, shopping, and restaurants, this home also offers easy commuting access to Baltimore, Annapolis, Fort Meade, and Washington, D.C. All of this is located within the highly sought-after, Blue Ribbon Severna Park school district. Beautifully refreshed and well-maintained, wonderfully flexible, and surrounded by an exceptional sense of community-this is an opportunity to enjoy the best of Severna Park living.
