About This Home

As of April 2025

Live authentically. Dover Lodge. A stunning log retreat that brings the Adirondacks to you. A private oasis. This architectural gem is a sanctuary of serenity, offering an unparalleled connection to the outdoors. Upon entering, a magnificent great room with soaring vaulted ceilings and exposed wood beams creates an awe-inspiring gathering space. The stone fireplace serves as a striking centerpiece, radiating warmth and character throughout. Overlooking this space is an elegant catwalk, which encircles the entire great room, offering intimate sitting areas that provide elevated views of the home’s exquisite craftsmanship. Take it all in. The logs provide a strong earthly backdrop. Stamp your design aesthetic. For culinary enthusiasts, the chef’s kitchen is a dream come true. Designed for optimal functionality when entertaining. A spacious butler’s pantry offers additional storage and prep space. Step outside to discover a breathtaking backyard retreat... a dream realized... a wraparound porch and expansive screened-in patio allow you to sip morning coffee while soaking in the sounds of birds and the gentle rustle of leaves. An inviting pool provides a perfect setting for relaxation, while a private tennis court offers a space for friendly competition under the open sky. A tranquil koi pond with a cascading waterfall and covered pavilion invites quiet reflection. Nearby, a picturesque pond with a wooden deck and bridge leads to a secluded island, an enchanting hideaway within your own estate. Further enhancing its charm, a traditional windmill stands gracefully in the yard, completing the idyllic country setting. The entire property is thoughtfully enclosed with both privacy and deer fencing, ensuring both security and protection for your gardening endeavors. Beyond the main residence, practicality meets style in an array of additional outbuildings and infrastructure to house all of your hobbies. The possibilities are endless. A dedicated workshop spanning approximately 1,500 square feet caters to creative pursuits and craftsmanship. Two office spaces allows for the idyllic work from home perch. A dedicated storage shed with a concrete pad ensures functionality without compromising the home’s aesthetic. A stunning fusion of bucolic charm and masterful engineering, tranquility reigns supreme. Minutes to John Brown store, Hunt Valley Town Center and Greenspring Station. Verizon Fios Internet. Cultivate your existence. The art of uniting human and home.
