Description

*Open House on 4/3 from 3-6pm*. Tucked into the trees on a secluded acre in Cockeysville, this one-of-a-kind timber frame home feels like a private retreat suspended in nature.

Your approach sets the tone. A stone patio leads to a newly built bridge walkway, guiding you to an entrance that opens into a breathtaking, light-filled living space. Warm post-and-beam construction will catch your eye first, while an entire wall of south-facing glass blurs the line between indoors and out. Overhead, expansive roof panels fill the space with natural light, all beneath a classic wood shake roof that complements the home’s natural surroundings.

The main level is designed to be both striking and functional, anchored by a 48-inch Wolf dual fuel professional range that serves as the centerpiece of the kitchen. Soapstone and warm wood countertops, along with a built-in dry bar featuring two refrigerator drawers, make the space as practical as it is inviting. A wood-burning fireplace adds to the ambiance, while a brand-new deck extends your living space into the surrounding trees.

The home unfolds across multiple levels, each thoughtfully connected by a stunning spiral staircase, surrounded by natural light and glass. Every bedroom features its own private deck, offering a rare sense of personal outdoor space for each occupant. On the middle level, a glass-wrapped sitting area creates a sun-drenched retreat between bedrooms, perfect for quiet mornings or unwinding at the end of the day. Even the lowest level is filled with light thanks to the home’s unique positioning on the lot.

Beyond its architectural appeal, this home has been extensively upgraded with over $119,000 in improvements. Major updates include a new energy-efficient HVAC system, a brand-new ductless mini-split on the main level, all-new decks and exterior walkways, six new exterior doors with screens, upgraded electrical with a new panel and whole-home surge protection, new plumbing and water systems including a fiberglass water heater, and a brand-new septic system. Every improvement was made to enhance both the integrity and longevity of the home while preserving its distinctive character.

Homes like this rarely come to market, especially in this location. If you’ve been searching for something truly different, something that feels like an experience every time you walk through the door, this is it.
