103 Edgevale Rd, BALTIMORE

***Open House Wednesday 12-2!! This grand Roland Park residence is ready for new owners. This home's stately presence and amazing details make it truly one of a kind. The sweeping front lawn of the half acre lot leads you up a gradual walkway. The pillared porch has recently been completely restored. From your aerie, you can look out over the rooftops to the newly acquired "park in the park". Leaded side lights and a fan window surround the wide front door. It opens to a broad elegant center hall which sweeps through to the back door. Light surrounds you on all sides. The gracious living room to your left boasts a wood burning fireplace with columns that match those on the front porch. There is ample space for multiple seating areas. The sun porch, opening through French doors off the living room, brings in light and provides wonderful flow for entertaining. The dining room is amply sized with a classic gilt pier mirror and French doors that open to view the level side yard. A landing or deck could easily be added here to provide access. The kitchen is waiting for your vision but is well sized to provide eat-in space. Adjacent to the kitchen is the laundry area. Behind the living room is one of the home's many unique features. It is an office with oak built-ins including a roll-top desk, window seat, and a hidden half bath (with a safe!). Who wouldn't want a home office with its own stone fireplace?
As you climb the stairs you will admire the handsome railing and finials of the staircase. The first stop is the mezzanine where you will find a broad landing with built-in bookshelves, perfect for a small sitting area. Off this landing is a guest bedroom with ensuite bath featuring original garland tile work. This level also provides access to the kitchen via the back stairs. Another short flight brings you to the second level with an enormous master suite complete with sitting room, ensuite bath, walk in closet, and adjacent dressing room/nursery. The closets of these bedrooms are very generous by old house standards. Two other bedrooms with a shared bath and a cedar closet complete this floor. The third level holds another bedroom, a bath with a claw foot tub and a small extra room for an office/craft room or whatever you wish. There is also a large room that could be a bedroom (plenty of space to add a closet) or family room/exercise room. In the hallway there is a wall of built-in cupboards with sliding doors and 6 huge drawers for linen storage.
The basement is unfinished but was recently painted. There is a new water heater, upgraded electrical panel, new water lines, and new sump pump. The roof and all gutters were replaced in 2021. A private brick terrace awaits outside the back door. You will have easy access to the one-car garage and kitchen back door via Indian Lane. This location in Roland Park is a quick shot to 83 for commuters but also is within walking distance of all that the neighborhood has to offer - walking paths, shops, restaurants, grocery store, pool, library, banks, post office, and multiple schools.
