Welcome… to one of Frederick County’s unique, contemporary homes; surrounded by almost ten acres of forest rich with natural dogwood and redbud trees, mature mountain laurels and standing oak. The house is embraced by a lush landscape and flowering plants that showcase the home’s natural beauty through all seasons. Follow the natural stone path around the multi-level, lighted deck, around the house and into the adjacent woods to enjoy each season’s presentation. Located at the crest of a hill, the home was designed to blend with its surroundings. The site orientation and arrangement of interior spaces allow the owners to enjoy both sunrises and sunsets. The natural light provided by 18 skylights and the warmth of the midday sun brighten and cheer the interior of the multi-level home. The floor plan emphasizes the sloping terrain of the property, and the extensive use of glass in the design brings the outside in, taking advantage of nature’s year-round display of colors and seasonal changes. Stand in any part of the house and look in any direction to enjoy the outdoors, and if you are fortunate, you may be surprised by a flock of turkeys, a red fox or a small herd of deer. This 4,800 square foot, 3 bedroom, 2-1/2 bath home earned the 1990 Award of Excellence for custom homes presented by the Frederick County Builders Association. The owners have taken great care to maintain its architectural intent and integrity when expanding the master bedroom and kitchen. As well, the interior appointments were upgraded through the years to reflect today’s conveniences and always to ensure any upgrades were in keeping with the natural beauty of the home’s interior and its surroundings. The interior is warm and inviting and ideal for a warm cozy night in front of the fire, hosting a small dinner party, or enjoying a large gathering of family and friends. Visitors entering through the front doors into the sunroom are surprised to find a butterfly- shaped pond teeming with goldfish and koi. Stepping up into the interior of the home, they are welcomed by the openness of the home, the 2-story ceiling… and by the 200- gallon aquarium where aquatic life is visible from all sides. The house is environmentally progressive with an array of 56 solar panels that can produce up to 40kWh of energy per day. This house most certainly found its home at the crest of the hill amongst the mature stand of trees and the lovingly owner-designed and maintained gardens. The house is situated to provide its owners with privacy, seclusion and quiet; but located a mere 15 minutes from the City of Frederick and its many restaurants, entertainment venues, shops and other amenities. AND… approximately one hour to either Washington, D.C. or the city of Baltimore; 25 minutes to the town of Leesburg and its restaurants and shops; and, a mere 10 minutes to the Point of Rocks train station. Welcome… to this unique and contemporary home… just minutes from Frederick yet offering peace and quiet in a wooded, country setting.
