212 S MORRIS STREET

Oxford, MD 21654

Originally built in 1870, this house was thoroughly restored in the early 1990s to an exceptional standard. From the front door, the view extends all the way through the house to the river. Ten foot ceilings grace most of the house. Light and airy, the design combines original features (yellow pine flooring, front door side panels, window glazing), refined, traditional accents (antique carriage lights and sconces, an 18th c English carved mantel), modern craftsmanship (custom butternut paneling through an entire room, hand-painted murals and floor stenciling), exquisite utility (four working fireplaces, a private master suite roofed balcony, and an elevator), and admirable maintenance (a new roof in the last 5-6 years, encapsulated crawl space). No house in Oxford offers this standard of refined and elegant detail. Utilitarian necessities are carefully concealed (such as HVAC ducting, home entertainment cabinets and speakers, and a bathroom). Lighting is discreet. Outdoors, the porous driveway with carport leads to a garage, and through a gate to the pool and flagstone terrace. The large back yard leads to the river (with a boat lift at the bulkhead), and returning to the house, a cozy brick terrace lies outside the kitchen door.
