Property Description

****PLEASE MAKE USE OF THE SHOW COVERS. THE HOME WAS RECENLT DEEP CLEANED. Tucked high among the wooded ridgelines of Braddock Heights, this distinctive 1970s lodge-inspired home offers a rare combination of architectural character, privacy, and proximity to downtown Frederick. Designed with dramatic exposed timber beams, soaring cathedral ceilings, expansive walls of glass, and richly textured natural materials, the home has been thoughtfully rejuvenated while preserving much of the warmth, atmosphere, and authenticity of its original design. The main living space centers around a sunken great room with floor-to-ceiling windows, a wet bar, and an extraordinary beam-framed cathedral ceiling that creates the feeling of a private mountain retreat. A large wraparound deck extends the living space outdoors and overlooks mature landscaping and wooded surroundings. Rather than being stripped of its identity by trend-driven renovation, the home’s kitchen has been carefully refreshed while remaining true to its architectural period. Updated appliances, fixtures, counters, and extensive storage complement the original cabinetry and wood finishes. Walls of windows bring natural light into the space, while two adjoining dining areas provide flexibility for formal entertaining, intimate gatherings, or everyday living. A striking three-sided brick fireplace with copper detailing connects the kitchen and dining areas and reinforces the home’s cohesive lodge aesthetic. The main level includes three bedrooms, including a spacious primary suite with a large sleeping area, oversized dressing room, and private bath. Vaulted ceilings, distinctive windows, preserved period details, and thoughtfully maintained finishes continue throughout the bedroom wing. The bathrooms retain most of their original character while remaining clean, functional, and ready for everyday use. The finished lower level offers exceptional additional living space, including two more bedrooms, a large family room, generous laundry and utility areas, storage room, and direct access to the oversized two-car garage with separate workshop or storage bay. Outside, the three-quarter-acre property blends mature native trees with established landscaping to create a setting that feels peaceful, private, and naturally integrated into its surroundings. The fenced in-ground pool is currently inactive but with functional equipment, and conveys as-is, offering future owners the opportunity to restore, redesign, or repurpose the space according to their own vision. Move-in ready and thoughtfully maintained, this is not a conventional suburban home—and it was never intended to be. It is an authentic architectural property for buyers who appreciate original design, nostalgic warmth, woodland privacy, and the experience of living in a home with a distinct sense of time and place.
