This Charleston style home fits perfectly in the quaint street scape of the historic waterfront town of Oxford, Maryland. It has an expansive front two story porch with views of Town Creek. Gravel driveway provides off street parking and Cypress siding exterior. The house boasts generous rooms with heart of pine flooring, custom moldings, 10' first and 9' second floor ceiling height. The kitchen, with breakfast bar, opens to a family room with gas fireplace. A lovely wide front hall leads to the living room which adjoins a spacious formal dining room. Upstairs there is a primary suite with full bath and walk-in closet plus two additional bedrooms and a full bath. A door from the hall and also the primary bedroom lead to the second story porch. While living in Oxford, an article about Charleston style houses appeared in a Southern Living issue. At about the same time the lot became available for sale so I purchased the plans from Southern Living. The plans provided the flexibility to determine materials, the kitchen design and interior features. Siding is cypress; floors are heart pine. Baseboard, crown molding, window trim, transom, living room columns are attributable to the builder, Joe Balderson. Interiors colors are based on Martha Stewart's Araucana Colors series.'
