Description
Located in the heart of Green Spring Valley and just around the corner from the shops at Stevenson Village is The Schnering House, a highly unique cedar-shake cottage that has been meticulously maintained by its present owners. Built in 1884 and retaining its many historic details, the home has been thoughtfully expanded to incorporate all the amenities of todays living. Upon entering the home one first notices the abundance of natural light. Thanks to the many oversized multi-paned windows, each room throughout the house enjoys this feature. On the first floor the gathering spaces are flanked by oversized porches- off of the kitchen and family room to the right is a lovely screened-in porch to spend summer evenings and off of the dining room and den to the left is a large sunroom addition. The family room, dining room, living room, and den are all equipped with wood-burning fireplaces and beautiful historic mantles. There are 5 generously sized bedrooms upstairs, including the primary suite and its adjacent dressing room. An expanded, above ground lower level includes a media space, wine room, home office and lots of storage. Another most unique feature of the property is the carriage house. Repurposed as an ideal home office or studio, the structure goes all the way up to a cupola to enjoy picturesque views of the valley beyond. With no shortage of entertaining spaces, the exterior of the home has multiple decks and patios to enjoy outdoor living on the 2 acre lot. Extending over a branch of the Jones Falls stream, a bridge gives access to a grass field at the back of the property. In one of the most convenient locations of Baltimore County, this lovely home is ready for a discerning buyer. As an additional perk, Sellers may consider seller financing to qualified Buyers.
