About This Home
Nestled between the rolling hills of two horse farms in the heart of My Lady’s Manor, you’ll find FERNLEIGH HALL at 2705 Houcks Mill Road. There is so much to love about this hidden gem, including the unique in-law wing. A private entrance, complete kitchen, living room/dining area, family room, bedroom, laundry, and one and a half baths makes for a large and comfortable second living space. The original home built by architect S. Brice Wing oozes charm with a beamed ceiling and repurposed barn siding in the great room and bespoke cherry cabinetry by local furnituremaker Chris Robertson flanking the stone fireplace. Pella doors lead to a fenced yard and salt water pool with cabana. High ceilings, spacious rooms, and three stories of living space allow for five bedrooms and three full and two half baths in the main house. As you enter the gated circular driveway, you'll realize you are home and you'll never want to leave. Come experience the tranquility of Monkton.
