About 16011 Baconsfield Ln
Behind the stone Baconsfield marker, a private lane climbs to a classic Colonial with grounds that took years to build. A curving brick walk winds through banks of hydrangeas, boxwood and specimen trees to a copper-topped portico, and every bit of it has gone in since 2023. Inside, a two-story foyer with oak stairs and paneled wainscoting opens to a study you could actually run a business from — built-in cabinetry, two work stations, French doors, windows on two sides. The dining room is warmed by a wood-burning fireplace under a dentil mantel, and the 2025 kitchen earns its date: quartz counters, gas cooktop, wall oven and microwave, built-in refrigerator, glass-front cabinetry and a breakfast bay that fills with morning light. Beyond it, a family room with a gas fireplace and a sunny flex room both open onto a deck that spans the width of the house, above a long lawn rolling out to the treeline with no neighbor in the sightline. The walk-out lower level is a second living area with daylight on two sides, room for a desk and a bike, sliders to a covered patio and raised garden beds, and a tiled spa room holding a cedar sauna and cold plunge. Upstairs, the primary suite sits under a vaulted ceiling with a sitting area, a fitted walk-in closet redone in 2024 and an en suite with double vanity, soaking tub, separate shower and plantation shutters; three more bedrooms and the laundry share the level, so nothing travels up and down stairs. A mudroom with bench and hook rail connects to the two-car garage, which has epoxy floors and its own split-system HVAC — usable every month of the year. The expensive work is behind you: GAF Timberline HDZ roof, Rheem furnace and water heater all 2024, gas fireplace insert, whole-house paint, repaved driveway, EcoWater softening with backwash filtration and reverse osmosis at the kitchen sink. Ten minutes to Hunt Valley, five to the York Road bakeries and farm stands, and the NCR trail and Gunpowder are just up the road. Pull a chair to the fire pit in October and watch the leaves turn to fall.
