15801 White Rock Road
Darnestown, MD 20878
This charming Colonial home, the Williamsburg,
has a wonderful floor plan that allows for easy living and gracious
entertaining. The elegant entry foyer is spacious enough so the
owners can greet their guests and hang their coats in the double
door closet. The guests have a sweeping view of the beautiful wood
floors in the foyer, living room and dining room. This foyer also
serves the homeowner as a convenient way from the laundry/mud room
and garage. The formal living room and dining room are spacious
and bathed in lots of natural light from the many tall windows.
The country kitchen is perfect for the family or guests to gather
with ample counter and cabinet space plus a desk area, two pantries
and large breakfast area. Perfecting the easy traffic flow is the
large adjoining family room with wood floors and beautiful
raised-hearth brick wood-burning fireplace. The powder room is
conveniently located
at the end of the foyer, as is the laundry/mud
room, with its doors both, to the outside and entry into the two
car garage. This home was the model used by the builders, Brown and
Schram, in the late 60’s and early 70’s, who converted
the garage into a sales office.


The upper level is just as wonderful. There are three good-sized
children’s or guest bedrooms and a large master bedroom suite
with a dressing area and its own bath. In addition there is a sitting
room with a fireplace as part of this suite (this room could have
been a 5th bedroom). There is a full hallway bath plus an additional
sink and large linen closet outside of the bath room for super convenient
use by guests or children.


Other special aspects of the home are the full lower level (many
homes inRidgefield have only half basements) with the convenience
of a walk-out, the near one acre level lot with fabulous large trees,
the storage shed for all your gardening needs and the converted two
car garage. It appears that the conversion may have been done with
restoration in mind, since the garage door was left in place. These
original owners had need of the office so left it. In addition, the
owner floored and retro-fitted the attic so there is room to stand
up and walk-around.
This
fabulous home is located in the wonderful community of Ridgefield.
As you drive around the community you see large well-maintained homes
on large lots. There are 127 homes in Ridgefield centered around
a 24 acre private park and lake for recreation. Picture yourself
strolling or riding horses, fishing or ice-skating. And enjoying
the many community activities that take place. The lake and front
entrance are maintained by a
$100/yearvoluntary contribution. This is the luxury of country with
the conveniences of the city nearby. Living in Darnestown allows
you to take advantage of this friendly country community, yet have
easy access to entertainment, shopping, schools, Metro and I 270.
Quince Orchard centers are close by and Kentlands with movie theaters,
reaturants and stores is just a few miles. Lakeforest, Montgomery
and White Flint Malls are not far and all the cultural opportunities
in DC are within easy driving or Metro distance.
