About This Home
Next level renovation of a 1900 stone cottage set on a spectacular, impossibly private piece of land. Tucked so far off the beaten path you may have trouble finding it, this secluded Timonium gem sits on over an acre of lush, tree-canopied grounds where you will never see a neighbor. A creek winds through the property, and original historic features — including an old hand-operated water pump and the stone walls of an original one-room cottage — give this land a storybook quality that simply cannot be replicated. The yard is enormous, the privacy is absolute, and the setting feels worlds away from everything while being minutes from it all. The house itself has been completely gut-renovated from top to bottom — new plumbing, new electric, new HVAC system, new kitchen, new bathrooms, new porch, and new high-end finishes throughout — all while preserving the soul and charm of the original stone construction. True to its history, the home was originally built as a stone cottage and later expanded, and that heritage shows in the most charming way: a few steps down lead you from the newer addition into the original stone side of the house, where the walls are thick, the character is undeniable, and the feeling is something no new construction can touch. It is the kind of architectural detail that makes a house feel genuinely alive. The primary bedroom offers a generous, light-filled retreat. The original closet reflects the home's historic roots, and the seller is happy to either build out a second closet prior to closing or provide a $2,500 credit at closing — giving buyers the flexibility to customize the space exactly to their taste. Move right in. There is nothing left to do. A property like this — charming, private, creekside, and completely turnkey — is a once-in-a-decade find in Timonium. Don't let it pass you by.
