Finding a recently built luxury home on real acreage near Eldersburg can be surprisingly difficult. Buyers often have to choose between a newer home in a more traditional neighborhood or an older property with the land and privacy they want.
4020 Baker Path Drive in Westminster, Maryland offers another option.
Built by JMB Homes in 2020 and extensively customized with more than $220,000 in premium upgrades, this luxury Modern Farmhouse offers more than 6,500 finished square feet on 5.33 private acres — with no HOA and no covenants.
And while the setting feels decidedly country, Eldersburg’s shopping and dining are just minutes away. For buyers commuting throughout Central Maryland, Columbia, Baltimore, and Washington, DC remain within a reasonable drive.
A 2020 JMB Home on 5.33 Private Acres
Privately positioned at the end of a no-through street in Morgan Brook Farm, 4020 Baker Path Drive sits on a large level clearing framed by a forested boundary.
That setting is an important part of what makes this property different.
There is a substantial usable lawn surrounding the home, providing space for outdoor living now and plenty of possibilities for the future. For a buyer envisioning a pool, a pole barn, or simply more open space, the combination of 5.33 acres with no HOA and no covenants provides flexibility that can be difficult to find with newer construction.
A Southern-style wraparound front porch gives the Modern Farmhouse exterior its signature look, while two elegant lighted stone pillars mark the driveway entrance. A screened porch extends the living space outdoors, and a 12' x 24' heavy-duty storage shed and large Swing Kingdom vinyl playset are already in place.
More Than 6,500 Finished Square Feet
The scale of the home becomes apparent as soon as you step inside. Ten-foot ceilings, 8-foot doors, field-finished solid oak hardwood floors, and extensive custom millwork distinguish the main level. Formal living and dining rooms flank the foyer, while the family room and executive office share a two-sided gas fireplace with a stone surround and raised hearth.
The kitchen was planned on an equally substantial scale, with quartz countertops, an expansive center island, extended peninsula, soft-close cabinetry, a 36-inch five-burner KitchenAid gas cooktop, double wall ovens, handcrafted wood range hood, and under-cabinet lighting.
Just beyond the kitchen, a light-filled morning room features transom-topped windows and a soaring cathedral ceiling, with direct access to the screened porch.
A Primary Suite With Space to Retreat
Upstairs, 9-foot ceilings continue the generous proportions of the home.
The primary suite includes a separate sitting room, tray ceiling, and two walk-in closets. The adjoining bath features dual quartz-topped vanities, an oversized glass-enclosed shower with a rain showerhead, and a freestanding soaking tub.
Three additional bedrooms, two additional full baths, and a large upper-level laundry room with built-in cabinetry and a utility sink complete the bedroom level.
A Finished Walkout Lower Level — Including a Dedicated Theater
The finished walkout lower level adds another dimension to the home.
Five full-size windows and French doors bring natural light into a large open recreation area. There is also an exercise room, finished storage room, full bath, and a potential fifth bedroom with a walk-in closet.
A rough-in provides the option to add a future wet bar or kitchenette.
And movie night gets its own space: the dedicated theater includes a 110-inch screen, 4K HDR projector, and 7.1 surround sound system.
Extensively Customized During Construction
The home was built by JMB Homes in 2020 and extensively customized with more than $220,000 in premium upgrades.
Beyond the finishes you immediately see, the house includes practical infrastructure that becomes increasingly important in a home of this scale, including 400-amp electrical service, a generator hookup for critical home systems, and high-speed wired networking supporting home offices, streaming, gaming, and wireless access points.
Even smaller details were considered. Sillite window-sill outlets operate from a dedicated switch and illuminate the window candles that are included with the home.
Country Living Just Minutes From Eldersburg
One of the most compelling aspects of 4020 Baker Path Drive is its location.
The property offers the acreage and privacy associated with country living without placing everyday shopping and dining far away. Eldersburg is just minutes from the property, while Historic Downtown Sykesville, Downtown Mount Airy, and Historic Downtown Westminster put several distinct Carroll County destinations within the surrounding area.
That location gives buyers access to very different sides of Carroll County. Historic is known for its Main Street setting, while Westminster serves as the county seat and a center for shopping, dining, arts, and community events. Mount Airy adds another small-town downtown within the broader area.
Nearby recreational options include Krimgold Park and South Carroll Swim Club.
For buyers considering a move to this part of Maryland, that balance is an important part of the appeal: private acreage without giving up convenient access to the places you use every day.
