***Lot lines are incorrect in zillow. This is almost a 10 acre property. Please refer to photo of plat map. I have alerted zillow. On bright MLS the lot lines are correct. FYI*** Professional photography and full write-up coming soon, but here's your first look at something truly special. Welcome to an extraordinary offering in one of Monkton’s most desirable countryside settings. This lovingly restored mid-19th century farmhouse sits gracefully on more than 9 acres of elevated land, offering stunning eastern views and privacy backing to mature woodlands. Since acquiring the home, the current owners have invested in numerous thoughtful upgrades that enhance both function and charm. Enjoy outdoor living at its finest with a custom, recently updated saltwater pool and a beautifully designed bluestone patio—ideal for entertaining or soaking in quiet moments surrounded by nature. The home was fully restored in the late 1990s, with continued enhancements over the years, including a brand new roof and modern windows that preserve the home’s character while improving efficiency. Added Water Treatment and Filtration System. Owners recently added professional whole house insulation as well. A wide front porch leads into a classic center hall featuring the original staircase and flanked by formal living and dining rooms. A discreetly placed powder room is tucked beneath the stairs. The north wing of the home caters to everyday living with an inviting country kitchen with all new stainless steel appliances, a casual dining area, a cozy office nook, and a sunlit family room addition with sweeping views of the pool and grounds. A stand alone wood burning stove has been added to keep you warm on those chilly winter days. 1st Floor Laundry Area with brand new washer and dryer. Upstairs, three separate staircases trace the home’s architectural evolution and invite exploration. A central library landing offers a quiet place to relax, read, or reflect. The primary suite features a private bath and a loft retreat accessed by its own winding staircase—perfect for a home office, studio, or reading space. Three additional bedrooms, a full hall bath, and a charming loft bedroom round out the upper level. Outside, the property continues to impress. Mature trees frame the wide front lawn, while a stone smokehouse and separate carriage house/frame shop offer storage or creative potential—think studio, workshop, or future guest accommodations. Fun Features include a Spring House with an active spring and a really neat Tree House. Remnants of a barn and spring house add historic depth and possible expansion options for gardens, animals, or additional outdoor living. Reap the benefits of a large, fenced in vegetable garden that the current owner has already planted. And after a hard day's work, relax in the newly added hot tub while overlooking the scenic grounds of the property. Perfectly positioned just minutes from the Gunpowder River and the NCR Hike & Bike Trail, this home offers easy access to local wineries, breweries, cafes, and country markets. I-83 is within reach for commuting ease, and the Hunt Valley Town Centre is a short drive away. Located within the sought-after Hereford Zone school district, this is more than a home—it’s a rare chance to become part of a storied legacy in the heart of Northern Baltimore County.
