Description
Live Authentically. For those who value architecture over excess, craftsmanship over trend, and homes with a meaningful story to tell, the Ashland School House stands in a category of its own. Commissioned in 1881 by Ashland Iron Works for its families, designed by Baltimore Architect Frank E. Davis, constructed by Robert G. Merryman. This architecturally significant Queen Anne residence, adapted for residential use in the 1930s, and updated over the years, was recently expanded and elevated with curated detail by its current owners. Every surface, system, and finish has been approached with respect for the home’s architectural legacy and an eye toward elevated daily living.Elements rooted in history. Butler Quarry marble ashlar, southern gumwood paneling and trim, heart pine floors, soaring glazed windows, exposed trusses and 25 ft barrel roll ceilings, stone fireplace with cozy inglenook seating are subtly grounding in a fast-moving world. Modern amenities for the discerning. Quiet main floor Primary Suite spoils with a steam shower walk in closet and heated floors. Second floor Primary Suite with luxe bath and laundry rivals the main floor. Dedicated Office space to reflect. Inspiring Great Room bathed in light. Enviable Butler Pantry to store, brew or imbibe. Swanky Mudroom entry captures muddy paws and feet. Jaw dropping Kitchen with heated floor flanked by original butler stone and 16 feet of windows that peel back to seamlessly blend into a European inspired beautifully lit courtyard overlooking pool, stone walls and terraces. Lighting and pool all app controlled for ease. Across the courtyard a fully renovated 2 bed/2 bath Guest House with equally thoughtful finishes – multi generational living, studio/home office, or long-term guests. Carriage style Garage with vaulted ceiling offers additional flexibility for collectors, workshop space, a vehicle lift, fitness studio, or golf simulator — tailored to the next owner’s vision. Too many details and features to list – this is a must see or make inquiry for more. Tucked within stone walls and mature landscaping, the property offers a rare sense of remove just minutes from daily conveniences. Shopping and dining at Hunt Valley Town Center and the York Road Corridor. Bike, run or stroll the NCR Trail with access on foot at the Ashland Trailhead. Explore nature and agriculture at Oregon Ridge Park or the Maryland Ag Center. Special dinners at The Milton Inn or The Oregon Grill. Convenient to Downtown Baltimore City dining and culture in under 30 minutes and BWI Airport/Amtrak under 40. The art of uniting human and home.
