1005 Cloverlea Rd, Towson, MD 21204

This Circa 1868 Victorian gem lies at the end of a discrete lane in Ruxton on 1.45 private acres. Period charm and craftmanship are apparent in the floor to ceiling lead glass windows, 8 fireplaces, original moldings, high ceilings, heavy panel doors and pine floors. A quintessential wrap around porch overlooks sweeping level lawns with mature landscaping and is perfect for entertaining and quiet relaxation on warm, summer evenings. Enter through century old double doors into a gracious foyer flanked by two parlors and accented by a stately 3 story staircase. Continue to a spacious dining room, library lined with bookcases and an eat-in kitchen. Completing the first floor is a sun filled vaulted family room overlooking a flagstone terrace and flower gardens. The second level includes the master bedroom and bath, 2 more generously sized bedrooms, full bath and office/craft room. A large, sunny laundry/utility room is also on this level. The third floor is unique in that it is bright and airy and includes 3 ample bedrooms, a full bath, and a walk-in cedar closet. Front and back staircases access all 3 levels. The fully finished basement has exposed stone walls and is large enough to accommodate a home office, TV area, and exercise/play areas. Built-in bookcases, closets, and 2 storage rooms add even more functionality. A detached multi story outbuilding includes a climate-controlled greenhouse and a large, architecturally interesting storage area which could be finished as a studio, apartment or office. The lower level generously accommodates 2 cars and an additional storage room. A blend of privacy with the elegance of yesteryear and the convenience of Ruxton, this property is truly a rare offering and a must-see!
