A custom-built home in Ellicott City is on the market for $799,900.

Located on more than 4 wooded acres, this modern 6,230-square-foot home has five bedrooms and five full bathrooms. The exterior has red cedar siding, with cedar front steps and deck. An English basement is located to the left of the front entrance.

The first level has an open floor plan, with a family room that has cathedral ceilings and a wood-burning fireplace toward the rear; windows on each side let in natural light and provide views of the natural setting. Oak floors can be found here and in the dining room.

“It’s a stunning contemporary house,” said Joe Bird, listing agent for Pakulla Professionals of Remax Advantage Realty. “It’s in a secluded wooded area and is in a prestigious neighborhood.”

To the left of the fireplace is the entrance to the kitchen, which features an island with a granite countertop, as well as a Wolf six-burner stove with a range hood. The kitchen also has commercial-grade appliances, including a wall oven and microwave, dishwasher and refrigerator. Other features are custom wood cabinetry, a breakfast nook, more granite countertops, and a butler’s pantry with plenty of storage and ceramic tile floors.

To the right of the family room fireplace is a separate dining room. This room has a modern ceiling light fixture, and comes with plenty of windows from which to enjoy the outdoor views.

There are three bedrooms and two full bathrooms on the main level, and all are carpeted. The master bedroom has walk-in closets and an en suite bathroom with a tub/shower combo. The second and third bedrooms have closets and share a full bathroom off the hallway.

Upstairs is another master suite with a loft area that overlooks the living room. It features an en suite bathroom. A door from this bedroom leads to an outside deck. The fifth bedroom is next to the master suite and has a full bathroom off the hallway.

The basement is carpeted and has a full bathroom. The downstairs also features a fireplace and a large home office that could be turned into another bedroom.

Outside is a three-car heated garage that was built to match the red cedar siding and the architectural structure of the house.
