Gorgeous colonial in the neighborhood of Turf Valley offering 5 bedrooms, 3.5 baths, granite kitchen counters, hardwood floors and a finished lower level. Natural light streams into this home through the large south facing windows. The custom built wood deck on the south side of the house looks over the wide lawn and mature trees. 

Located in one of the most prestigeous school districts in the country, 3117 Dunes Drive offers an ideal location like no other. The peaceful Turf Valley community conveniently positioned near major routes, grocery stores, shopping, award winning restaurants and the Turf Valley Resort and Golf Course.

Here is what the sellers have to say about their home:

When we found our home at 3117 Dunes Drive, we were drawn to it the minute we walked through the door, from the fresh open floor plan of the great room and kitchen to the crown molding throughout the house. The back yard feels like a private park and is perfect for spending quality time.

Turf Valley in Ellicott City, MD is a happy place; a comfortable, inviting and relaxing place to live with an active community and friendly neighbors. One of the best things about this neighborhood is the sound of laughter coming from the children playing outside. Turf Valley is one of the most welcoming neighborhoods in the area and the public schools are rated some of the best in the country. The neighbors are wonderful and are always willing to help each other out.  We have block parties, holiday parades, fundraisers and other community activities.  One of our favorite things to do is get together with other neighbors for porch parties or driveway get togethers.

We love being able to relax with friends on our deck.  We do this no matter the weather; a warm summer evening or a chilly fall day with the fire pit blazing. The open floor plan of the kitchen and great room makes a great place for entertaining, watching football on Sundays with family or just relaxing with a roaring fire on a cold winter day. We love the natural sunlight that flows into every room of the house. The cozy layout of the house and its peaceful setting are things we will miss about our lovely home on Dunes Drive.

New roof

New master bath

Our utility costs are better than we have experienced before.  On average our costs are $165 per month depending on the time of year and the usage of heat or AC.

We are close to shopping, malls, restaurants and other activities.  Historic Ellicott City Main Street is a great place to shop, meet up with friends, or just go for an evening stroll and window shop. Grille 620, Facci and Xitomato are wonderful restaurants in the new Turf Valley Towne Square where they have outdoor concerts in the summer; a great meeting place. We also love Bippys, the local pub hang out where they not only know your name, but they know your drink of choice and never forget. Portalli’s and Tersigol’s on Main Street in Historic Ellicott City are local favorites. We have many grocery stores with a lot of variety.  Safeway, Harris Teeter, Weis, Giant and Mars are all within a 1 – 2 miles of our home.

We moved to Howard County because of the schools. In Turf Valley we have Manor Woods Elementary, Mount View Middle and Marriotts Ridge High. All are top rated schools.

Howard County recently won ‘Best Library System in North America’ and for a very good reason. Just down the road from our house is the brand new Miller Branch library which is the largest and newest library in Howard County. There are always fun events here and during the summer months there is an open air farmers’ market.
