Can you picture yourself in a huge brick rancher with a two car attached carport plus an oversized 3 car garage that actually holds four cars.

 When Is a Three Car Garage Really a Four Car Garage?

Now, back to the main house... sitting on a beautiful level landscaped lot at the corner of Winterset and Old Post..just minutes from Exit 21 of the Baltimore Beltway 695.. such a convenient location. Close but not too close!

This custom, well built mid-century, brick and stone residence has so much to offer that you could call it a ‘forever' house with complete accessibility... no steps, other than the ones leading to the 4th bedroom!

This is a home for entertaining with the long double driveway...parking for lots of guests.

When you drive up, notice the ‘3317' on the brick mailbox custom made for the long time owners.

There are many unique custom features such as a curved wall, stone planter, pocket doors between the family room and dining areas, and a bricked in gas grill in the spacious eat in kitchen.

Need a home office or den? There is a room for you on one side of the kitchen. Another bonus room houses the extra freezer, refrigerator, washer, dryer, large storage area, and has its own door to the covered carport area.

The grand stone fireplace, a focal point of this special residence, can be enjoyed from the living room, dining room, foyer and family room.

 The generous open spaces allow for creative placement of furniture.

The kitchen has a storage wall of custom wood cabinetry, a breakfast area, gas grill, loads of cabinet space, a salad sink with disposal and another deeper sink. Pantries on each side of the oven.

The amount of storage and the design is a functional work of art.

Take a look and you may be asking: "what's behind door # 1, door # 2 etc.

 Do you see the elegant "jewelry" hardware on these doors?

The house is transformed when this "wall" opens for entertaining, giving easy access to the open bar into the kitchen.

The dining area is defined by the elegant fireplace, with matching custom wood, the custom wall of cabinets and the adjacent family room. The owners took a great deal of pride choosing the 'art deco' dining room chandelier.

This entire space is opened by a full wall of glass containing two sets of sliders to the patio areas. Another set of sliders from the large paneled family room, again, give access to the patio, level yard and storage shed.

Abundant storage throughout the home and don't forget about the enormous space, now housing four cars. Completely finished with attic insulation, windows, heat and air conditioning. Not a car enthusiast?...how about using for a studio, office or recreation area. Bet you could come up with many ideas for this separate but close to the house structure.

The three, first floor, bedrooms on the other side of the house, are separated by a door and boast rich dark parquet floors.

Look at the main bath room with double sinks, a slight corner tub and seating area. Check out the custom designed tiles of this delightful home built in 1959.

Stairs leading up to the large fourth bedroom.. measuring 19' x 19'..has a large bright window, walk in closet plus a good old fashioned cedar lined closet. This upstairs space has its own heat and air conditioning.

The master bedroom, with dressing room, mirrored closet with built in drawers and stall shower, has plenty of space for designing the most luxurious bath/spa.

With a bit of TLC, this home could be spectacular again.

Margaret:  This looks just lovely.  (Not real sure about the green appliances, though... LOL)  But... I just love the setting.  Lots of green, lots of space... looks like an excellent "street-scape"... and lots of privacy... my hot button.  Once your marketing program gets into gear, this home will surely make some new family very happy.

Roy, Thanks for being the first to comment and for sharing your kind words.

Bill, One of the sellers saw it this morning and felt the same way.

Karen Anne, You like all that green space...just not in appliances. All of those colors can be changed. Look at the natural stone and woods in this home.

Sally, I am hoping that garage will fill someone's fantasy. Will be going over to photo the cars as soon as I can. I think the gals might like it...completely finished walls, electric, air conditioning, windows and insulation in the attic. We girls could take it over also.

Connie, Thanks for stopping by. You are always welcome.

Carole,  Would love to see you work your Feng Shui magic on this beauty.

Hi Susan, That fireplace is quite impressive. Did you notice the wood shelves on the living room side.

I spent some time in the garage taking photos of the cars...quite a challenge..4 cars in one space and they did not move! Will try to post in a few days...wonderfully busy with listings, sales, showings and settlements.

Margaret, what a great post ... great photos and presentation.  I "found" you this morning on Russel Ray's post about personality type.  Then I went straight to Amazon, read reviews of your book, and, of course, ordered it.  I can't wait to read it.

The double sided stone fireplace is great. Reminds me of the house I grew up in.

I love your very full description. It's like telling a story, and make the reader to really get to know the home. It's always good to make an emotional connection.

Hi Margaret ~ Mid-century modern is one of my favorite house styles. This house is magnificent - the fireplace, the gorgeous built-ins, the lighting fixtures, and all the other details you've shared here - wow! Not to mention all that space. Just super!

The home on the outside looks great, nice yard, and very clean. I would say the interior could use some heavy updating, or at least a professional stager, best of luck!
