940 OAK HILL AVENUE, HAGERSTOWN, MD 21742

$750,000

Every so often, a house comes to market that knocks your socks off. This is one of those homes. From the moment you step onto the deep, wrap-around front porch, you feel the warmth. Proceed inside the vestibule, hang up your jacket, sit and take off your boots, and continue… Read More through the front door, filled with the charm of the art deco style - all of the transoms and window surrounds to allow for maximum light - makes one imagine the roaring 20's and the elegance of that era. Ten+ foot high ceilings and original wood doors, trim, baseboards and transom windows. On either side of the gracious foyer are living rooms with fireplaces, hardwood floors and double French doors. Walk back to a formal dining room, with a floor to ceiling bay window ready to sit 12 people comfortably for dinner. The kitchen, off the dining room and hallway, is completely modern with gas cooking, stainless steel appliances, quartz counters, designer backsplash, solarium window for plants and herbs, walk in pantry, and door to back porch. Off the kitchen is the laundry room and a half bath, the back staircase and another casual family gathering room. Every room flows into the other while still having separation. The fun doesn't stop there. One floor up contains the owners' suite - not the suite we see built today, but a lavish, spend the day in bed kind of suite that demands attention. Consisting of 5 actual rooms, the owner's suite has a sitting room, a dressing room, a closet with shelving, a luxurious updated bathroom and the sleeping quarters. (Please note that the rooms all have their own entry door from the hallway and can be converted back to make another bedroom if needed.) Another 2 bedrooms and an updated bath make up the 2nd floor. The third floor adds another 4 bedrooms, and bathroom, painting or reading cove, and walk in closets. But wait, there's more. Lower level is adorned with a bonus room, modern 4-piece bathroom (sink vanity, walk-in shower, commode and urinal!), Zen garden for meditation, and a perfect spot for the wine cellar. Below, is yet another lower level that is a basketball court and doubles as a huge theater room with projection and screen that convey. Both lower levels have welled exits to the back and side yards. 2 car, oversized, detached garage on a .4 acre, corner, double lot. What more could anyone want or need? This is truly a one-of-a-kind home that has been carefully and expertly restored to its unparalleled beauty and function. Open house is planned for Sunday, 4/13 from 1-4. Please park on the street so as to not block garage. Read Less
