1809 Thornbury Road

Description

Welcome to Mount Washington where the acclaimed architects and businessmen, The Dixon Brothers envisioned and masterfully created some of the most intriguing, detached residences in all of Baltimore City. The grand 1875 built Victorian features meticulously cared for cedar siding, a stately yet charming wrap around porch and over 3,800 square feet (the tax record is incorrect) of living space. An oversized foyer, rich hardwood flooring, preserved radiators, crown moldings, custom built-ins and decorative vintage fireplaces tell a story of a home that has been cherished and thoughtfully updated throughout the decades. To the right of the foyer is a spacious living room with a statuesque floor to ceiling wood burning fireplace and a wall of custom-built ins that extend into an additional sunroom. To the left of the foyer is a private dining room. Vintage touches such as stained-glass lighting, ornate tile and a wooden mantle make this room truly unique. Transition from the dining room into the butler's pantry with its ample shelving and even a cozy seating area to plan out those special meals. The bright and cheerful kitchen was redesigned by Stuart Kitchens many years ago and still stands the tests of time, quality and modern style with its custom hardwood cabinetry, abundance of counterspace and functional breakfast bar. Double doors lead you from the kitchen into the great room where you will find walls of windows and views of the oversized deck and gazebo. Note the great room can also be utilized as a sixth bedroom and is served by a full bath and two closets; one of which is a walk in cedar closet. The back of the home features an elegant breakfast room with skylights, a laundry room and a half bath. The second floor features a wide hallway with oversized double windows and four large bedrooms, all with custom California closets. A generously sized full vintage tiled bath services all four bedrooms. Move right in and enjoy your new life but not before heading up to the third floor and embracing the marvelous feeling of being at the top of Dixon Hill. Arched ceilings, a fifth bedroom, cedar closets, built-ins, the modern conveniences of heating and air and all with the most picturesque views you could ever imagine. The backyard is an entertainers dream with its expansive multi-level wraparound deck, gazebo, multiple seating areas and so much more. There is a six hundred square feet detached garage with 2 access doors, attic space and full power as well as an unfinished basement for storage. All within less than a half a mile to the Mount Washington Village with Whole Foods, The Mount Washington Tavern, and all of the wonderful shops, galleries, restaurants, beauty, wellness, fashion, businesses and access to major routes.
