About This Home

As of December 2024

This gorgeous converted Victorian farm house is set on a stunning lot with views of protected farmland in a rural setting that is also ideally located close to downtown Westminster and Hampstead along with 140, 30 and commuter routes. The crown jewel of the property is the main home with a large kitchen, formal dining, and two large living rooms, a walk around porch with views of the picturesque farmland for miles, layered decks and a balcony. The great room is spacious and cozy with doors to access the wrap-around porch and courtyard and a large wood burning fireplace. Enjoy reading a favorite book from the window seat overlooking the spacious yard. The lower level has been an entertaining spot for decades and has a flow that allows for easy entertaining and is sure to be the place everyone loves to gather.

Upstairs has room for everyone with 5 bedrooms and 3 baths, with spacious primary suite. The primary bath has been updated with a spa-like shower, walk-in closet and private porch overlooking the courtyard that is truly a dream.

The third level is a walk up attic that has been used as a bedroom, guest room, playroom and teen lounge over the years.

Back downstairs, a mudroom with laundry makes coming and going a breeze.
A center courtyard between the main house and garage/ carriage house is your personal secret garden. Tenant house/in-law suite (utilities billed separately) features 2 bedrooms and 1 full bath, living room kitchen, laundry room, four seasons room, deck and 1 car garage! Currently rents for $1,100/month, tenant would love to stay. Roof, windows, furnace, pressure tank, garage doors, vinyl rear fence, gutters/downspouts and garage deck are all less than 4 years old!

The property includes a detached 3 car garage, large front porch, deck and multi level back porch all overlooking gorgeous farmland that is in AG preserve, so the views will never change! Don't miss the sunsets from this property, they will take your breath away. Welcome Home!
