Enter a long private entry drive to a remarkably stylish Craftsman-style Butler stone home situated on 2.8 acres with towering trees, beautiful gardens, and rolling lawn. Reverse the clock thirty years as new buyers begin transformation and expansion, then fast forward to find beautifully designed grounds and a home drenched in warmth with meticulously crafted updates and architectural elements, fine millwork and finishes, high-end systems, four fireplaces and a seamless blend of traditional elegance and contemporary design. Formal and casual spaces filled with natural light are open, airy, and in harmony with the pastoral esthetic. The rustic stone woodburning fireplace is the focal point of the great room with display cabinetry, an entertainment center and wet bar with beverage drawers adjacent to the spacious dining room. The living room with second woodburning fireplace opens to a handsome study with mahogany built-ins and an impressive stone wall. In a separate wing on the main level is a large bedroom and 2021 bathroom created for guests and currently serves as a second family room area. The stunning 2022 white and soft blue chef’s kitchen with butler's pantry and wine refrigerator features quartz counters, a Wolf 6-burner dual-fuel gas range with pot-filler, wall ovens, warming drawer, a SubZero refrigerator, and a separate SubZero freezer. A large island with breakfast bar and unique ambient lighting anchors the space, just steps from the breakfast room and mudroom with cubbies for school and sports gear. Upstairs, the spacious owner’s suite offers a tray ceiling, gas fireplace, walk-in closet, and a 2021 luxurious marble bathroom with a soaking tub, steam shower, and sauna. Off the second level sitting area with vaulted ceiling and dramatic windows are three additional bedrooms, two new 2021 marble baths, and a conveniently located laundry area. The lower level includes a fitness room, theater room, home office, workshop, utility area with a Viessmann boiler, and a sixth bedroom with a wood stove and full bath - ideal for an au pair or guests, with direct outdoor access. Car enthusiasts will appreciate the two detached garages, while gardeners will enjoy the tool and potting room, three-bay equipment shed, and fenced kitchen garden. Other notable improvements include a 2023 40-year roof on the stone garage, a 2016 40-year roof on the main residence, 2022 copper gutters and downspouts, a 2026 Viessmann boiler controller, 2025 Ipe decking and lighted railings, a 2014 septic system, and 2025 security and intercom systems. Additional features include 9-zone central air, 11-zone heating, a sound system, and extensive landscape, hardscape, and fencing installations. Savor the opportunity to be a magnet for year-round gatherings and recreation. Imagine warm evenings practicing your putts on the green to a trill of peepers or settle back on the beautiful Brazilian walnut deck to enjoy sunset as little feet cross the lawn to climb the tree house or field a lacrosse ball. The setting is unique, private, and picturesque, yet just minutes from I-695, schools, Towson Town Centre, and Baltimore’s vibrant Inner Harbor.
