For Sale - 7760 Glen Avenue Pasadena Maryland 21122 (AA7541154)

It is unlikely you have ever seen a setting like this. If you were an eagle this might be just the place you've been looking to land. There's room for everyone and almost everything you might want or have - from boats to dirt-bikes, from cars to high-flying kites, from the workshop to the private boat ramp. There's even room for family members needing separate quarters either long or short term in a lower level suite.

So, if you were that eagle 7760 Glen Avenue in Pasadena, Maryland might be just the spot you would be looking for. This classic home is well located in the heart of High Point, close-in to Baltimore, and a short distance to BWI, Fort Meade, Annapolis and Washington DC. At Glen Avenue you will find a gated sanctuary with room for living, playing, and entertaining - both indoors and out.

Ducks and Ducklings, Blue Heron, Canadian Geese, and an Eagle or two enjoy the waterfront almost as much as the current owners do.

There is Holly, Mountain Laurel, Ferns and an abundance of wildflowers that compliment both groomed and natural areas throughout the grounds.

A new pier is located at the head of Brady Cove. Channel dredging has just been completed in the cove for an estimated water depth of 3-plus feet. Back a boat down the ramp in the spring and haul it out yourself in the fall.

The property consists of two parcels, one on Glen Avenue and the other on Bridge Street, affording you a family-sized compound that could be later divided into additional building sites.

You could tear down a car or build one from scratch in a real workshop. You could store a half dozen cars here and still have room for more. Or are you more interested in boats? Then think covered storage for perhaps a forty-foot power boat or trailer-capable sailboat or all the jet skies and runabouts you might have.

The double nailed roofing shingles were barely ruffled in the twister of September 1999. And there was not a leak or concern after record snow falls in February of 2010. Workmanship mattered when the owner's father, an aircraft engineer, first started construction on this home in the forties and it continued throughout early 2000 when his son updated the home. Old-style construction techniques have resulted in an allergy-free home with no gypsum board. It's a twister proof rigid structure with attention to the details - from the double-nailed shingles to the perfectly mitered corners of the molding, from the energy efficient construction to the well executed electrical and plumbing systems.

Inside, the first floor has a living room with gas fireplace and dining area opening to the kitchen. There's a full bath on this level and large utility/laundry room that doubles as a mud room. The kitchen has updated cabinets and appliances. Throughout the first floor and on the private covered porch off the kitchen you have an incredible vista the cove, the grounds, the trees and the wildlife beyond.

The second floor has a master bedroom with private covered balcony and in-suite bath. There are also two bedrooms, a hall bath, an office, and secluded "sunning" balcony on this floor as well.

The lower level features a fully separate suite with living room, bedroom, full bath and galley kitchen with separate electrical and HVAC.

A one-inch main delivers city water throughout the home so go ahead and turn on all the water at once in any or all of the five full bathrooms!  Two are upstairs, one on the main level, one in the lower level suite and one accessible from outside (fisherman's full bath).

Outside, the home has newer siding, windows and roof. The decks and porches are covered, stairs lead down to the open yard that is fenced, so there's no need to worry if you've got a dog or two.

This custom-built home is a timeless design that's been continually updated to meet the demands of today's modern living. There's room for everyone to claim a space of their own indoors or out.
