Interested in owning a bit of history in a quiet Baltimore County neighborhood, yet still close to the city? Formerly a 19th century carriage house, this charming Ruxton cottage combines historic charm with thoughtful updates—all nestled in a sylvan natural environment on a lovely street.
Historic details abound in this unique home, including a hook and beam once used to haul hay to the second floor of the original carriage house and what may have been a former smokehouse nestled into the hillside.

Kitchen extends to a sunny eat-in area, pantry, and laundry room.
Large living/dining room and adjoining den, both with woodburning fireplaces.
First-floor bedroom and full bath.
Elegant wood floors carry throughout the house.
Two additional bedrooms on second floor, with adjoining full baths and generous closet space.
High angled ceilings give unique character to this bedroom.
Children’s playroom and adjoining office space.
Spiral staircase leads to finished first floor den with large windows offering plenty of light.
Beautifully landscaped yard with specimen plantings and flagstone terrace—just enough space to enjoy the outdoors without onerous yard work.
