314 Weatherbee Rd, Towson, MD 21286

Welcome to 314 Weatherbee Rd, a beautiful home on a quiet, tree-lined, cul-de-sac street in Overbrook, a friendly, small neighborhood of less than 50 houses. Overbrook is walkable to Towson High School, Stoneleigh Elementary School, Wiltondale Pool/Park, & the Six Bridges Trail along the scenic Western branch of the Herring Run. You can’t miss the large mature trees, including a show-stopping sugar maple tree in the front yard. People come from blocks away to gaze at the tree in the autumn as it changes color, so we made sure to include a photo of it from last fall for the future homeowner to see. In the spring, you will see the perennial shade garden with spring bulbs & hostas come to life. The placement of the house on a knoll, at the crest of the Weatherbee Road hill, provides great curb appeal starting at the hand-built stone wall at the curb. You see the slate roof, which is both beautiful & functional & the attractive fieldstone façade, all of which are traditional to homes in this area. Inside the house, you notice the craftsmanship & high-quality materials used throughout: thick plaster walls, shiny pine floors, wood baseboards throughout, plentiful closets, original heavy wooden doors, glass doorknobs, & brass hardware. Modern amenities include double-paned, energy-efficient windows, recently painted walls in pleasant pastel colors paired with white woodwork, good circular flow from room to room, central heat & AC (serviced this month), & ample electrical outlets in every room with updated wiring. The beautiful, sunny eat-in kitchen with a bay window facing SE, was professionally designed & upgraded with a wide quartz countertop, stainless steel appliances, & solid wood cabinetry (3 of which contain a Lazy Susan).. The library/sunroom is enclosed by thermal French doors that lead out to 11 windows making this a 4-season porch room with plentiful sunlight. Thanks to the flowering evergreen foundation shrubs, you still have visual privacy from neighbors. The floor to ceiling built-in bookshelves against the fieldstone wall is stunning. A spacious living room is anchored by a beautiful, hand-painted tile fireplace. The archway into the dining room adds to the open flow of the house. The dining room overlooks a beautiful screened-in porch with the porch skylight bringing light into the room throughout the day. An office/mudroom between the kitchen & dining room includes a large pantry & wall coat pegs. Upstairs, the large master bedroom with three windows provides brilliant morning light, & the SE-facing windows provide a beautiful view to wake up to. Two large built-in closets with sliding louvered doors add to the room. Two additional bedrooms on the second floor include one with an en-suite half bathroom & a walk-in closet. The other bedroom could be used as an office. In the hallway, is a set of pull-down stairs that lead to the large, partially floored attic, which provides additional storage space & a whole house fan to help keep the house cool in the summer. A functional partially finished basement has recently painted floors & walls with many storage shelves. A laundry area has a high-efficiency washer & dryer, furnace, & a high-capacity water heater. You will also find a door that leads out to the backyard. But, what you will truly love is the newly built screened-in porch, which gives you a bug-free place to enjoy the outdoors for 3 seasons. Its skylight & fieldstone floors are complimented by a serene blue ceiling. This space can be used as an additional dining room or entertaining space with a view of the verdant green backyard! The backyard is private & care-free with a perennial garden planted with ostrich ferns, hydrangeas, & lilies. You’ll also enjoy the many mature trees, including evergreen trees. On the SW side of the home is a sweet herb & flower garden & a lovely arbor with flowering trumpet vine that signals the entry to the back yard. Open house Saturday and Sunday 1-3pm.
