Superb location, property and opportunity at 1955 Severn Grove Road. Conveniently located on a very private, 1-acre lot, this 5-bedroom colonial has everything you’ve been looking for in a home! The gracious foyer with hardwood floors opens to the library on the left and a light-filled living room ahead. The living room has a gas fireplace as the focal point, with ample windows giving landscaped garden views. One of the striking features of the home is the oak staircase that wraps around the 20 ft foyer with an overlook. Architectural columns provide definition for the open floor-plan, allowing easy transitions but also providing a sense of space to each room.
The incredible gourmet kitchen is a chef’s delight with cherry cabinets and stainless steel appliances, including a double wall oven with warming drawer, Jenn-Aire cooktop, and side-by-side refrigerator. There is a breakfast bar as well as space for a separate table with garden views. Off the kitchen, the mudroom has a laundry center, trash compactor, and additional cabinetry. The formal dining room has chair-rail and crown molding, and a lovely chandelier. The main level also offers an office, with built-in aquarium and garden views, and a powder room. Step into the year-round sunroom and enjoy the tranquility of the extensive gardens. Beyond is a beautiful paver patio with complementary stone retaining walls.
The primary bedroom suite upstairs has a commanding view of the gardens and includes a large bedroom, fully-outfitted separate walk-in closets, and a truly spa-like bathroom. The primary bath has separate vanities, with tons of cabinet space, a jetted tub, and an oversized shower with multiple showerheads and sprays. The second and third bedrooms share a remodeled bathroom with pretty pebble finish flooring. The third bedroom has a built-in desk, dresser, and currently there’s a stackable washer/dryer in the closet. The fourth bedroom includes an ensuite bathroom and custom built-in cabinets. The lower level has 9 ft ceilings and features a gorgeous kitchenette with fridge, ice-maker, and cappuccino machine. So many possibilities on this level! There is a bedroom, full bathroom, and huge theater room in addition to the family room. The theater room would be the perfect spot for big comfy chairs. For those needing a separate living space for family or friends, this would certainly be the top choice. There is also a room with built-in cabinetry for extra storage, as well as an office space or hobby room.
Outside, the many garden areas will give hours of pleasure. The peacefulness of the waterfall and the privacy under the trees will transport your mind to a quieter place. The current owner used the garage for a home-based business, but it would be easy to return the space to the two-car garage that it was originally.
