40+ Pastoral Acres w/ Shared Equine Amenities -- Gracefully sited on one of the most coveted parcels in all of Howard County, this custom-built Cape Cod-style residence blends timeless architecture with the pastoral tranquility of the preeminent equine community in the region, Paternal Gift Farm. More than a home and a guest house, it is a living portrait of country elegance—a space where thoughtful design, enduring craftsmanship, and a deep sense of peace converge. From the moment you arrive in the circular drive, the home's presence is quietly commanding. Framed by mature trees and sweeping views of pastures five, four, and three along with the community pond, the setting is simultaneously intimate and expansive. Inside, every detail tells a story.
