Inspired by the Peyton Randolph house in Colonial Williamsburg, designed by notable Maryland architect, Bryden Hyde, and overlooking 85.83 rolling acres deep in the heart of Maryland's time-honored horse country. An estate drive through Chippendale gates, past a row of trees that lined a Civil War era road leads to a circular drive and motor court between the attached 3-car garage and detached 3-car carriage house. Constructed with an old-world craftsman's eye for quality and detail, the exterior of the 37 year-old home features English and Flemish bond brickwork with crushed oyster shell mortar, a Gunston Hall replicated porch and cedar shake roof, renovated by Amish craftsmen in 2013. Step back in time as you walk through the double entry doors to an elegant center hall and move among the graciously ornamented and proportioned formal main rooms including the living room, dining room and cherry paneled library, all with fireplaces, 11-foot ceilings and Georgian casework and cabinetry. The Patrick Sutton and Trish Houck designed kitchen complex features custom hand-crafted Prevo cabinetry, limestone flooring, and commercial grade appliances. The seating area with a keeping room fireplace flows to a glass-enclosed breakfast area overlooking a beautiful rolling landscape. The large sunny bedroom with fireplace, sitting room and 2 baths comprises the luxurious primary suite, completely renovated in 2010. Two large en-suite bedrooms and sitting room complete the 2nd floor. A charming guest suite with private access, including a sitting room, is located away from the main living quarters. Set amidst 85.8 acres of rolling fields and farmland affording breathtaking vistas from every window, formal and informal gardens, manicured lawns, brick patios, porches and garden walks, in-ground pool and pool house, the extraordinary estate farm bespeaks the quality and workmanship of a bygone era with all of the state-of-the-art improvements of today. This once in a lifetime property is adjacent to Shawan Downs and located in the most beautiful and convenient countryside in the County.
