There are homes, and then there are places that tell a story. Paradise Farm is one of them. Its story began nearly 225 years ago, when the original circa-1800 stone residence took its place among the historic farmsteads of Baltimore County. Today, that history lives beautifully alongside exceptional modern luxury. Masterfully transformed and expanded in 2004, the original residence now encompasses more than 9,000 square feet of living space, thoughtfully blending historic character with the comforts and elegance of modern living. This extraordinary estate features six bedrooms, six full and two half baths, five fireplaces, and exceptional indoor and outdoor entertaining spaces.
The handsome exterior combines original stone, brick, and siding, while rich hardwood floors, detailed moldings, and superior finishes enhance the interiors. An impressive foyer is anchored by a sweeping curved staircase spanning three levels and opens to an elegant dining room and gracious living room with a fireplace flanked by custom built-ins. The gourmet kitchen features granite countertops, display cabinetry, a Wolf cooktop, Monogram refrigerator, double convection wall ovens, a planning station, pantry, and adjoining breakfast room. Just beyond, the family room is centered around a striking custom stone-and-steel fireplace.
The home’s distinctive layout creates separate yet beautifully connected living areas. To the left of the main residence, a private upper-level au pair suite includes an en-suite full bath and laundry hookup. The main level also offers a powder room with convenient access to the pool and three-car garage. To the right of the kitchen, the original historic structure is joined by a stunning conservatory and features a formal library with the original open-hearth fireplace, an additional fireside den, and a rear staircase.
The luxurious primary retreat includes two walk-in closets with custom built-ins and an en-suite bath with separate vanities, a soaking tub, a glass-enclosed shower, and towel warmer. From the primary bedroom, the floor plan continues into the upper level of the original structure, where gorgeous original hardwood floors, a sitting room with a fireplace, a full bath, and a versatile bonus room ideal for a nursery or office provide remarkable flexibility. A rear staircase connects this area to the main level and floored attic. Across the curved landing, two bedrooms share a dual-entry full bath, while the third floor offers two additional bedrooms and another full bath. The lower level expands the living space with a recreation room, walkout stairs to the backyard, an exercise room, a full bath, and abundant storage.
Outside, a screened patio introduces a spectacular private oasis designed for resort-style living. The custom 25-meter gunite pool is fed by a waterfall from the elevated hot tub and surrounded by bluestone patios, original reclaimed limestone walls, and lush grounds. A massive covered outdoor kitchen and expansive entertaining area completes this one-of-a-kind setting, where historic character, architectural distinction, and modern luxury come together beautifully.
