Experience true Southern charm blended with modern luxury in this custom-built Southern-style colonial home, set on 11.37 acres of beautifully landscaped, agriculturally zoned land with three building rights. With 4 bedrooms, 5 full baths, and a potential in-law suite on the lower level, this property offers both elegance and versatility. Double covered porches with beadboard ceilings, pendant lighting, brick steps, and a welcoming entry with transom and sidelights set the tone, while a circular driveway leads to the side-load 3-car garage. Inside, the foyer features crown molding, a center-hall layout, a graceful staircase, a coat closet, and a basement access conveniently located nearby, and is flanked by the living and dining rooms. Brazilian cherry hardwood floors flow throughout the main level. The living room showcases crown molding and a bow window, while the dining room offers a chandelier with a decorative crown centerpiece.
The kitchen is a chef’s dream with cherry wood cabinetry, granite countertops, vaulted ceilings, recessed lighting, black appliances, an island with seating, and large windows over the sink. The family room, kitchen table space—situated just off the kitchen—is filled with natural light and overlooks the lush landscaped grounds. The main-level laundry room includes built-in cabinetry, a utility sink, and a full bath with a step-in shower. A spacious office or optional 4th bedroom with a bow window and rear-facing views completes the main level. Upstairs, the primary suite includes a sitting room with access to the attic. The en suite bath offers a soaking tub, double vanity, step-in shower with gray tile surround, and a private built-in sauna. Two additional bedrooms feature double closets, ceiling fans, and carpeting, accompanied by a hallway bathroom with a dual vanity and linen closet.
The lower level offers high ceilings, a large recreation area, baseboard heating, storage under the stairs, and a wide-open layout. It includes a bonus room or potential in-law suite, a full bath, and a mechanical room. A spacious storage area with shelving and a brick floor area—perfect for a pellet or wood stove—adds convenience. Walk-out sliders to the patio and pond. The view from this area is stunning.
The exterior amenities are exceptional: two barns (one with a greenhouse, wood drying solar kiln, water & electric, and one with water, electricity, and houses one of the 2 wells), a tiered Trex deck outfitted with electrical outlets, a stone-edged pond with a liner, a pergola, and bench seating. A gardener’s delight with an abundance of trees, shrubs, and perennials. Thoughtfully landscaped with low maintenance. Lots of ground cover to make for little weeding. All meticulously maintained landscaping is designed to offer color and interest during all four seasons. Water recycling is pond filling that adds to the serene landscape.
Additional features include geothermal heating, central vacuum, 2 water heaters, handicap accessibility with wide doorways, and an estate-like setting ideal for entertaining, hobby farming, or simply enjoying the peace and privacy of a refined North Harford County retreat. **Please note that the area around the barn will be corrected, reseeded, and strawed.**
