16601 Candy Hill Rd Upper Marlboro, MD 20772

Listing details for 16601 Candy Hill Rd, Upper Marlboro, MD 20772 : Five acres. No HOA. True freedom. In a county where lots keep shrinking and rules keep multiplying, this Upper Marlboro brick rambler sits on five AG-zoned acres like a quiet act of defiance. No neighbors are peering over your fence, no committee telling you what color to paint the shutters, just land, sky, and the rare luxury of doing things your way. Step inside, and the single-level layout welcomes you with an ease that multi-story homes can't match. Downstairs, the finished basement opens up a world of possibilities: a home office that actually feels separate from your life, a rec room built for real use, or guest quarters that give everyone their own space. The attached two-car garage handles the practical side of life, while the solid 1976 brick exterior keeps doing what it's always done, standing firm with minimal fuss. Another meaningful advantage of this home is how naturally the home and land work together. The residence provides comfort, function, and flexibility, but step outside, and you begin to understand the care, vision, and time invested into everything surrounding it. The grounds have been thoughtfully cultivated over the years, creating a landscape that changes with the seasons and rewards exploration. A diverse collection of mature trees, oak, pine, birch, cedar, locust, black walnut, and more than 120 in total, anchors the property with presence and privacy. Interwoven throughout are flowering varieties and ornamentals, including cherry blossoms, Japanese maples, dogwood, crepe myrtle, redbud, and hydrangea. Fruit-bearing trees and plantings, such as persimmon, fig, eastern beach plum, grapevines, and blueberry, add character and function. Azaleas, roses, butterfly bushes, and native flowering species bring color and movement across the landscape. It's not just acreage; it's an environment intentionally shaped and cared for. This is the kind of setting that can't be replicated quickly and rarely comes to market in this form. It invites a different pace, a different use of space, and a different kind of ownership experience. Regional routes are close by. The congestion isn't. That balance is harder to find than most people realize, until they do. Come and experience what five acres, thoughtfully lived on, can offer in a world that rarely slows down.
