This is a rare opportunity to own an historic gem with timeless elegance and a sense of enduring legacy. Step into a piece of history with this magnificent 1888 home, which predates the establishment of Baltimore's esteemed Roland Park.

As you enter through the lush privacy hedge and double iron gate, you are welcomed by a large wrap-around front porch that sets an ambience of sophistication and charm. Entering into a grand foyer, the beautifully refinished floors open to two spacious living rooms and a formal dining room, each with original pocket doors. These spaces flow gracefully and are filled with abundant natural light from expansive windows and high ceilings. A gorgeous solarium with full-size picture windows and generous built-in cabinetry offers a space for a reading room or an office, discreetly positioned for privacy and inspiration.

The elusive blend of form and function comes to life in the large, renovated eat-in kitchen which is adjacent to a versatile, large room with a full bath that serves equally well as either a family room or an entry level bedroom.

The second floor hosts a primary suite with both sitting and dressing rooms, an en-suite bath, and generous closet space, complemented by leaded glass windows and a beautiful window seat. Another large bedroom with an en-suite bath centers the second floor and two additional charming bedrooms with a third full bath anchor the back.

The third floor is a magical surprise, boasting a dreamy, sun-drenched large bedroom, an additional bedroom, full bath, dressing room, and a substantial attic, adding to the home's allure.

Outdoors, the grounds and spacious lawns are equally enchanting, offering a perfect setting for social events or serene afternoons, with the grand backyard and quaint carriage houses recalling days gone by. Imagine a garden party under the shade of specimen trees, cocktails or a full seated dinner on the gracious porch, or a child's birthday or school party spilling across the multiple lawns. Estate-sized maple, rhododendron, azalea, boxwood, magnolia, holly, and Norway spruces anchor this one-of-a-kind property.

Perfectly located within walking distance of local schools, eateries, and the Roland Park pool, and just a short drive from downtown Baltimore's cultural scenes, this residence is not just a home but a statement of elegance and history. Seize a generational chance to live in one of Roland Park's largest and most historic properties--a truly elegant home, this beauty won't be on the market long.
