As featured in The Baltimore Sun - this extraordinary "Lodge-Like" design provides country comfort and charm. The idea was to utilize every space and have the space defined. The open and airy floor plan flows seamlessly from one area to another on the main level. Nine foot high ceilings add to the feeling of openness, as do the porch and large deck area that expands the interior living space to the out-of -doors. You will notice the quality craftsmanship and details in each and every room, for example; the river rock double sided stone fireplace has artful tiles. On the living room side the tiles display a sunset scene and the sunroom side the art tiles display a sunrise scene. Occupying the main level is a sprawling gourmet kitchen with a cozy breakfast nook, a great room with a double-sided stone fireplace, dining area, library/den, laundry room and a half bath. As you continue down the hallway you will go through the 11 x 10 mudroom leading to the attached oversized 3 car garage. The steeply pitched roofs and sheltering eaves of this house promise both welcome and retreat. Interiors and exteriors are characterized by a spirited sense of joinery, texture and detail. It is the quintessential "storybook house in the forest, " with unique lines and handsome craftsman wood detailing. If this house fits your needs and your budget, you'll be hard pressed to find a house more beautiful than this one.
