Step back in time—without sacrificing modern comforts—in this truly one-of-a-kind historic home, originally built in 1782 and thoughtfully updated through the years. Nestled on a beautifully landscaped lot, this property is a dream come true for history lovers and garden enthusiasts alike. As you approach via the long driveway framed by lush trees and natural beauty, you’ll immediately feel a sense of peace and privacy. Ample parking makes entertaining a breeze. Entering through the welcoming mudroom, you’ll find access to both the main residence and the fully renovated, private in-law suite. The main home offers a perfect blend of preserved character and contemporary upgrades. The kitchen features original flooring, modern appliances, and a charming wood-burning stove. Adjacent is a cozy bonus room ideal for a formal dining area or home office, and a spacious laundry room with additional storage and backyard access. The expansive formal living room, a whimsical 1970s addition, showcases a stunning bay window salvaged from a historic Baltimore hotel and bricks repurposed from an old church—details that add unmatched charm and storytelling to the space. Upstairs, the sleeping quarters exude warmth and history. The primary suite boasts a brick fireplace, multiple closets, and an en-suite bathroom adorned with rich wood cabinetry and classic sconce lighting. A guest bedroom features an original stone fireplace, rustic exposed beams, and a loft that could easily serve as a fifth bedroom. Two additional bedrooms and a renovated full bathroom complete the upper level. The separate in-law or guest house, once a carriage house, offers its own private entrance. Inside, you’ll find a delightful kitchen with heart-of-pine flooring, stainless steel appliances, and custom cabinetry. The spacious suite includes a cozy living room, full bathroom with historic-inspired finishes, in-unit laundry, walk-in closet, and a serene bedroom retreat. Outdoors, the grounds have been lovingly maintained by Master Gardener owners. The front yard features a large lawn and a charming cooking garden enclosed by a Williamsburg-style fence. The backyard is a tranquil oasis with mature trees (including a lemon tree), vibrant seasonal gardens, and a fish pond—yes, the fish are included! Enjoy the romantic rose-covered archway and scenic landscaping year-round. Modern updates include Central A/C, a new water heater, water filtration system, and drainage improvements—all enhancing comfort while respecting the home’s historic integrity. With no animal restrictions, the property also suits those seeking a more agricultural or hobby-farm lifestyle. Don't miss your chance to own this extraordinary piece of Maryland history—a home where timeless elegance meets modern-day livability. Floor Plan will be uploaded soon!

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
