Property Description
History, nature, and unique city living come together in this wonderfully updated 1940's home in historic Dickeyville!
This 4 bedroom, 3.5 bath house has been tastefully include new and completely refreshed modern amenities while also preserving its vintage aspects and historical past. It boasts many desirable features, and character - this house absolutely oozes character! From original hardwood floors throughout to a slate roof, solid copper and brass door handles, thresholds, and accents, the more you look, the more you'll discover! Original stone foundation, interior stone basement walls, restored rim locksets on nearly every door, functional dormers, original doors, subtle art deco touches, and not one but TWO wood burning fireplaces are some of the unique features!
Upstairs, the bedrooms are sizeable, and have been fully updated. A cozy master bath and hall bath provide convenience, and incorporate unique architectural rooflines.
The main level provides gorgeous elevated views of the historic community and woods. The space includes a powder room, generously large rooms for living and dining, an open kitchen with new stainless steel appliances, and a 4th bedroom which could easily be used as a home office or library with its own separate porch entrance. The oversized dining area could also be transformed into a living room or den - the options for using the main floor are varied! A functional fireplace graces one end of the living area.
The fully finished walk out basement contains a large living area with fireplace, access to the garage, furnace room with ample storage, and a huge full bathroom! This bath was designed with exposed walls and painted exposed trusses, making for a unique but refined loft-style look. New stackable washer/dryer and a large basin sink add to the rooms function.
The home features natural gas, forced air heat, (No radiators to interrupt floor space!) as well as central air conditioning! In warmer weather, the home is almost naturally air conditioned by the design of the basement and stone walls.
Outside the house, the property really shines! Featuring one of the larger lot sizes in Dickeyville, there are not one, or two, but THREE unique outdoor porch living spaces. A large elevated patio adorns the kitchen side, offering great views of the neighborhood - great for lounging in the sun or having a outdoor meal. On the opposite side, a fantastic 3 season covered screened porch awaits coffee, conversation and a great spot for plant lovers to hang baskets of flora. The lower level patio features original flagstone surrounded by stone walls, and a white picket fence rounds out the enclosed lower yard area.
The entire front yard is also fully fenced in with new picket and split rail design fencing which compliments the property. Let dogs and kids run free with the added security - you'll love how large the yard is! Rounding out the exterior are large side areas perfect for gardens, flowers, or the landscaping of your choice. Mature trees surround the perimeter, and decorative hardscape walkways link all areas of the property. There's also a paved, 2 car driveway - another rarity for Dickeyville. Plus the 2 single car garages and lower off-road side parking on the property, and you'll never worry about having to find a space to park again. Another great feature of this property is having no shared property lines with other houses! And, the land across Forest Park Drive is forested and natural.
The Dickeyville community is a National Historic Landmark with a rich history. Feel free to stroll down thru the village, and an easy walk to a huge creekside park along Gwynns Falls! A bit further and you'll find the Gwynns Falls biking trail, which heads through Leakin Park and beyond.
The neighborhood is so unique, you'll almost forget you're in the city -
Feels like you're in a small town in the English countryside. Yet minutes from I-70 and the beltway,
