Property Description
Gracefully sited on one of the most coveted parcels in all of Howard County, this custom-built Cape Cod-style residence blends timeless architecture with the pastoral tranquility of the preeminent equine community in the region, Paternal Gift Farm. More than a home and a guest house, it is a living portrait of country elegance—a space where thoughtful design, enduring craftsmanship, and a deep sense of peace converge. From the moment you arrive in the circular drive, the home's presence is quietly commanding. Framed by mature trees and sweeping views of pastures five, four, and three along with the community pond, the setting is simultaneously intimate and expansive. Inside, every detail tells a story. Light spills into generously scaled rooms that unfold with effortless flow, revealing custom millwork, refined finishes, and an air of relaxed sophistication. The heart of the home—an inviting, hearth-centered great room — radiates warmth and authenticity, designed for meaningful living. The owners of this property have hosted more family events at this location than one can count; sometimes hosting over thirty people in the home for special occasions. This residence also comes fully equipped with a guest house above the detached garage (Four total garage spaces) that offers a great room, full kitchen, bedroom, and additional full bathroom. Every area of the home showcases its own unique and beautiful perspective of the property, highlighting the visually stunning gardens and communal pastures. The rear yard sets up perfectly for the addition of your pool, sports court, or outdoor kitchen. Paternal Gift Farm as your home; this unique, award-winning community boasts twenty nine stunning luxury homes, seven well-managed pastures spanning forty nine picturesque acres, a wide range of barn and field equine boarding options, a private fishing pond, picnic area, and a 1.7 mile private walking path. Located in the River Hill High School district, this community is directly adjacent to Schooley Mill Park which offers a professionally maintained equestrian ring, eventing course, miles of riding trails, an exciting playground, recently renovated sports courts, and multiple sports fields.
