About This Home
***Major Price Improvement of $30K****
Welcome home to this 1876 Victorian in the heart of Historic Lutherville Maryland. This home seamlessly blends timeless elegance with modern sophistication. You will be greeted by the stunning wrap around front porch where you can sit and enjoy your morning coffee or wind down in the evenings with a cocktail. Upon entering, you are greeted by a large and elegant foyer that boasts crystal chandeliers and an original oak staircase that sets a grand tone for the entire home. You will immediately notice the sun drenched rooms with floor to ceiling windows flanked by two bays. The elegant four corner floor plan with three original marble fireplace features, allows you to cozy up on cold winter days with the living room pellet stove. The well appointed custom kitchen built by Pennsylvania craftsman has been updated with high end stone countertops and KitchenAid appliances. The show stopper of the first floor is the 450 sf great room that was constructed in 2022. With vaulted woodwork ceilings, hardwood floors and a plethora of windows that provide views of the English gardens, brick patios and large flat rear yard. A secondary screened porch off the kitchen pantry is the perfect setting for family dinners. Multiple exterior porch doors lead to the powder room - perfect for entertaining- as well as the first floor library.
Whether you climb the grand oak staircase or the original butler stairs, you will be amazed by the spacious second floor foyer with original heart pine floors and elegant Victorian wall paper. The spacious primary bedroom with a recently renovated ensuite bathroom with a stone and tile shower. You will fall in love with the converted antique hand carved credenza with dual sinks. Three remaining spacious bedrooms, one of which has an adjoining nursery door, all have fresh paint and carpet. The open air second floor porch that overlooks the rear yard is a great place to sit, read and enjoy the afternoon breeze. What was once the only bathroom on the second floor has been converted to a spacious laundry room with build in cabinetry and antique pedestal sink. The hidden wooden stairs lead to a quaint office and a massive attic space with vaulted ceilings, which is perfect for an additional 5th bedroom, family game room, and has ample storage closets. An overlooked feature of the home are the abundance of glass transom windows which casts sunlight to all parts of the interior of the home.
This elegant beauty turns 150 years old next year. The best birthday present you can give is to be the next stewards of this magnificent home. With a recent price adjustment of $30K, this home is a great find and well under market value for recent contracts and sales in Historic Lutherville.
