Welcome to the Jenkins Homestead, a four-level custom home nestled amidst serene woods and farmland on an idyllic 0.9-acre lot. Originally built in 1961, this residence was thoughtfully expanded by the current owners in 2004, adding two additional levels. With four bedrooms and three and a half bathrooms, this home offers abundant space and the flexibility to convert rooms into additional bedrooms. As you arrive, you are greeted by lush landscaping and brick walkways leading to a Southern-style wrap-around front porch, crafted with rich mahogany wood and accented by ceiling fans. Step inside to discover wide-plank Brazilian cherry wood floors in the foyer that extend through the main level, complemented by wall speakers to enhance the ambiance. Entertain guests in the dining room, highlighting a wedding-cake crystal chandelier from a historic home in Canton. The well-appointed kitchen boasts peaceful views, and stainless steel appliances including a double wall oven and a five-burner propane Jenn-Air cooktop with a range hood centered on a massive island. The adjacent mudroom offers versatility as a breakfast nook, office, or den, with access to the rear patio and deck. This room also features pantry storage, a second refrigerator/freezer, and hot/cold water hookups for a washer/dryer. Off the kitchen, the inviting living room showcases historic Fells Point wood beams on the ceiling and a cozy propane fireplace, which can easily be converted to wood-burning. Large windows frame views of the natural surroundings, while a half bathroom and access to both the rear patio and attached two-car garage add convenience. From here, stairs lead down to the fully finished lower level that includes a massive recreation room with disco lights, a large laundry room, and storage space. Back to the main level, a private bedroom suite is complete with a luxurious bathroom featuring a tub-shower, another exposed beam ceiling, and a custom vanity. Upstairs, the first upper level offers a cozy sitting room that could be transformed into an additional bedroom. Around the corner are two bedrooms and a full bathroom with a custom-built vanity, a tiled tub-shower, and accent wood panels from a former 1960’s beach shack in Dewey Beach. Completing this level, the spacious primary bedroom suite is a tranquil escape with a spa-like bathroom highlighting a frameless glass-enclosed walk-in shower and a jetted soaking tub. A walk-in closet and a secondary closet provide ample storage. Continuing upward, a flight of stairs featuring more historic Fells Point beams leads to the finished top level. This expansive bonus room can be utilized as a bedroom, office, or game room and provides endless possibilities. Outside, the impressive rear yard is a true oasis surrounded by mature trees and pastoral views. Designed for both entertaining and relaxation, the outdoor space features a patio, outdoor speakers, a fish pond, and a tiered deck with an existing hot tub electric panel. The lower section of the back deck is built on longer footers, allowing for the addition of a future screened porch. As the sun sets, gather around the fire pit, listen to the night sounds, and gaze at the stars. The property includes a large barn with a metal roof, stall, and electric, along with a chicken coop and storage shed. Behind the barn, an established and fully fenced garden features enclosed beds with fruiting fig, apple, mint, raspberries, and blackberry bushes and trees. This property was the result of a subdivision in the late 60’s by the Jenkins Family and the land surrounding are hayfields tended by members of the original farm family. The home’s major systems include two-zoned HVAC, a 500-gallon owned propane tank, an 80-gallon hot water tank, and a 400-foot deep well with a pump, water filter, neutralizer, and softener. Centrally located just 20 minutes from Towson, Bel Air, Fallston, and Hunt Valley with nearby Loch Raven Reservoir and its scenic trails.
