Imagine celebrating the holidays fireside in a warm and private country home as leaves gently fall beckoning you to venture out to share quiet trails with native wildlife by foot, on horseback, or Gator. Enter the private drive beneath magnificent trees to a comfortable retreat situated on 68 acres with meadow, woodland trails, stream, with opportunity to access and create pasturelands. Adjacent to beautiful farmland and the First Mine Run Hunting Club the property is situated in the renowned Elkridge-Harford hunt country known for rich traditions, scenic beauty, and land preservation. An architectural masterpiece designed by Arthur Valk and constructed by Ilex of massive white pine logs, rough-hewn beams, and framing timbers - each joint is scribe-fitted, typical of the centuries-old craft. Interiors echo the natural surroundings through custom mahogany-framed doors and windows to view the stone terraces, woodlands, and ever-changing scenic vistas. The roof appears to float above the walls lending the structure airiness, where traditional and contemporary design, fine finishes, and warm organic elements exist in harmony. Entertain with ease beneath soaring cathedral ceilings and skylights in the welcoming foyer, formal dining room, and magnificent great room with fireplace built of antique brick and stone. The deluxe kitchen with cabinets made of anegre - a tiger-striped exotic wood, features a large island, 6-burner gas range with griddle, warming drawer, and large walk-in pantry. Steps away are the spacious mud room and laundry, and convenient home office with garden views. The main-level owners’ suite features a private covered deck, a second wood burning fireplace, spa-like bath with open-air shower, two separate dressing areas and large walk-in closet. A second main-level bedroom with ensuite full bath currently serves as a study. Ascend to the towering open mezzanine-level with sitting area flanked by a large second home office, a light-filled studio offering space for future finished rooms. The lower-level offers a cozy media room, a full bath and two spacious bedrooms – one with walkout to native gardens. The large recreation room with wrapping station and infrared sauna offers flexible space, and fitness and fun enthusiasts might be tempted to create a first-class gym and home theater. The adjacent unfinished basement space with wine room provides access to state-of-the-art systems - main-level radiant heat, Viessmann gas condensing boiler and indirect-fired hot water tank, 5-zone HVAC, and electric service to generator. Artists and wood working aficionados will covet the large workshop, and recently constructed run-in shed close to specimen timbers. The oversized attached three-car garage and tractor equipment shed provides space for collectors, hobbyists, and gardeners just steps to level lawn and future kitchen garden.
