Property Description
Deemed the best example of Cotswold architecture in Baltimore County, this 1853 Ruxton income-producing property features three units plus a potentially buildable lot. This distinctive income-producing opportunity combines 1853 character, flexible living spaces, generous outdoor areas, and potential future possibilities. This is a rare opportunity to own a three-unit property featuring two residences in the main house built in 1853 and a third residence in a separate carriage house. The carriage house is not historic. The main house is listed as a Baltimore County landmark, offering historic character alongside versatile layouts, laundry for each unit, abundant storage, and exceptional outdoor living. A spacious driveway provides parking for up to six vehicles, including a two-car carport. Unit 1 in the main house offers three bedrooms and one full bath, with thoughtful built-ins and distinctive storage throughout. The generous floor plan includes a screened porch, a family room with beamed ceilings, separate living and dining area, and a kitchen. Enjoy access to a large deck and a roof deck, creating multiple spaces for outdoor entertaining and relaxation. The lower level provides a dedicated washer and dryer plus additional storage. Unit 2 in the main house features three bedrooms, including one well suited for a home office, together with one full bath. The residence includes a living room, kitchen with pantry, and expansive closet space. Basement access provides storage and an in-unit washer and dryer. Located in the non-historic carriage house, Unit 3 offers one bedroom, one full bath, a kitchen, laundry, and storage. A conditioned lower-level bonus space provides excellent flexibility for a home office, studio, or hobby area. The carriage house has a separate address, adding to the property's versatility, creating the potential for a rear building lot once the carriage house is removed. Historic designation, permitted use, unit count, separate addressing, subdivision potential, buildability, and any future development or incorporation of the carriage house into a rear lot should be independently verified by the buyer with Baltimore County and other appropriate authorities. Exterior or site alterations to a locally designated landmark may require review or approval. Total acreage .75. Baltimore County landmark #BA-01158 for main house. Taxed Sq Footage does not include carriage house.
