    Elegant stone residence brimming with character, offering 3 bedrooms, 2 full bathrooms, 2 half bathrooms, and 3,381 finished square feet in Historic Towson Estates. This enchanting home showcases storybook curb appeal, with lush garden-lined pathways, a Juliet entryway, and timeless architectural details that hint at its rich heritage. Step inside to find hardwood floors flowing through the traditional main level. The foyer opens through French doors to a spacious living room featuring a stone-accented wood-burning fireplace and built-in bookcases—a perfect blend of warmth and sophistication. Opposite the foyer, the formal dining room impresses with vintage wallpaper and an elegant chandelier that complements the home’s historic charm. The large eat-in kitchen exudes character with granite countertops, a decorative backsplash, and rich cherry cabinetry offering ample storage. From here, step into the sunroom, a captivating retreat enclosed in panoramic glass windows, creating a light-filled sanctuary that brings the outdoors in. Upstairs, hardwood floors continue throughout three bedrooms, including an expansive primary suite with double closets, a private sitting area, a loft with balcony access, and a spa-like en suite bathroom. A second full bathroom serves the additional bedrooms with equal charm. One of the bedrooms has a private balcony. The lower level is a treasure of its own, featuring a recreation room with hardwood floors, stone walls, a second stone fireplace, and exposed beams that showcase the home’s craftsmanship. Two bonus areas with built-ins, a half bathroom, laundry room, and a former darkroom provide character-rich versatility. Outdoor living is equally magical, with meandering stone walkways, vibrant gardens, and a stone fish pond, all set against a wooded backdrop for added privacy. A two-car garage and private driveway provide convenience and ample parking. Nestled within Towson Estates, a neighborhood celebrated for its old-world charm and early 20th-century architecture, this residence is part of a community where stone walls, gardens, and fountains create a picturesque, timeless atmosphere. The neighborhood association is dedicated to preserving its historic integrity, ensuring each home retains its distinctive character. Tucked away on quiet, no-through streets, yet just minutes from shopping, dining, major commuter routes, and amenities, this home offers the perfect harmony of history, privacy, and convenience. *Property is being sold As-Is, Fireplaces are decorative only, not usable.
