If you've always admired the big, beautiful homes along Newburg Avenue, you won't want to miss this rare opportunity to own one of the nicest! Lovingly restored with well over $300,000 in thoughtful upgrades and updates, it's truly move-in ready, and the location can't be beat...just a short walk to all Frederick Road has to offer! You're going to love the welcoming wrap-around Azek porch and the grand Foyer that opens to a floor plan that is perfect for entertaining, complete with a 1st floor Family Room addition! The gracious Foyer features spectacular stained-glass windows and chandelier, lovely stairway, and wide openings to the DR & LR, giving it a very open feel. Tall ceilings, pocket doors, period bullseye trim, hardwood floors, decorative radiators, five-panel doors, original rolled and stained-glass windows give this home a sense of history and charm that all too often gets stripped through years of remodeling. Decorative marble mantels and built-ins enhance the LR and DR. A restored chandelier and dramatic vintage mirror, salvaged from the Belvedere Hotel in Baltimore, add elegance to the DR. The remodeled eat-in Kitchen has a tiled floor, granite countertops with a large center island, high-quality cherry cabinets, deep sink, gas range, stainless appliances, pantry and attractive pendant, and recessed lighting. There's Kitchen access to the side porch, a back stairway, and a convenient Powder Room. The adjoining Family Room addition has vaulted ceilings, skylights, ceiling fans, a wood-burning fireplace, and sliders that open onto a large wood deck. On the 2nd floor, you'll find three generously sized Bedrooms, a luxurious full Bath, and a tiled Laundry Room. All three 2nd floor Bedrooms are nice sizes, with crown molding, deep closets & ceiling fans. The Bathroom is gorgeous, with wainscot and custom tile work, dual vanities, a soaking tub, and a huge walk-in shower w/glass enclosure & multiple showerheads. The 2nd floor Laundry Room has an HE washer & dryer, storage cabinets, and a laundry sink. On the 3rd floor, there's a lovely, private Bedroom Suite with a Sitting Room. The luxurious Bath features custom tile work, a raised soaking tub, and a separate steam shower w/glass enclosure. Custom touches include a river rock shower floor, multiple showerheads, and a towel warmer. Rarefly offered in these older homes, the beautifully finished lower level offers a 2nd FR, Rec Room with walk-up access to the driveway, a powder Room, Home Office & a large Workshop/Utility Room. The FR and office have exposed stone walls, an attractive accent. Systems upgrades include energy-efficient 4 zone gas heat, 3 zone AC (ceiling fans ensure year-round comfort), and 200 amp electric service. The home has been extensively insulated for comfort and energy efficiency. The large, level lot is perfectly suited for play, gardening and entertaining. Attractive landscaping and lovely stone walkways add interest and stone steps topped in Bluestone access the generously-sized low maintenance wrap-around porch. Note: the porch swing is included! The driveway has parking for 3 cars. A detached garage offers additional parking and/or storage. There's just SO much to love about this great home and its location!
