Welcome to Snowden Overlook, one of Columbia's most sought-after gated 55+ communities, where an active, maintenance-free lifestyle meets the comfort of home.

Beautifully updated and meticulously maintained, this spacious villa lives like a single-family home while offering the convenience of low-maintenance living.

The open floor plan is designed to adapt to your lifestyle, with everyday living centered on the hardwood-floored main level featuring a light-filled living room with a gas fireplace, sliding French doors to the patio, a gourmet kitchen with an island and breakfast bar, dining area, full-size laundry, and a spacious primary suite.

One of the UNIQUE ADVANTAGES of this flexible floor plan is the option to use the main-level primary suite as a den, office, or guest room, allowing the adjacent full bath to conveniently serve visitors. The private upper-level primary suite then becomes the owner's retreat. Come see how this thoughtfully designed home and exceptional community may exceed your expectations!

The second primary suite on the upper level can be designated for the owner, and with an additional bedroom and full bath provides ideal space for guests, along with a spacious loft.

The finished basement offers a large family room, full bath, and flex space perfect for a guest suite, home theater, gym, office, or additional storage.

Major improvements completed within the past two years allow you to simply move in and begin enjoying everything this exceptional community has to offer.

Recent updates include refinished hardwood floors, fresh interior paint, new upstairs carpeting, luxury vinyl plank flooring in the basement, plantation shutters, motorized living room shades, updated kitchen appliances, a ceiling fan in the primary bedroom, and thoughtful accessibility features including grab bars and a comfort-height toilet.

Relax with morning coffee on the covered front porch, entertain on the rear patio, and appreciate the convenience of a two-car garage, driveway parking, and nearby guest parking.

Snowden Overlook residents enjoy an exceptional lifestyle with a staffed clubhouse, outdoor pool, fitness center, pickleball courts, walking paths, social clubs, and a full calendar of community activities. HOA and condominium services include lawn care, snow removal, trash and recycling, exterior building maintenance, roof replacement, and gated community access, giving you more time to enjoy life and less time maintaining your home.

Residents also enjoy the extensive amenities of the Columbia Association, including miles of scenic walking trails, lakes, parks, golf courses, indoor and outdoor pools, tennis clubs, fitness centers, arts programs, and year-round community events.

Conveniently located near Routes 175, 29, 32, and I-95, you'll be just minutes from shopping, restaurants, entertainment, and medical facilities.

This is more than a home, it's the lifestyle you've been waiting for.
