Some of these updates include a new completely renovated 2nd floor balcony with new railing system, new custom copper gutters and chimney flashing, new elegant solid cedar screen doors at the front entrance and screened in porch, new sump pump with mobile Wi-Fi alert to support the basement's French drain system, new 4 ton heat pump and 4 ton air handler as well as new 2nd floor duct work. The sellers love this home but will be moving out of state and are looking for new owners to be a part of the 120+ years of history at the Bauernschmidt Manor. The sellers have applied for Baltimore County Historical Preservation Property Tax Credits for recent renovations to be applied starting with the 2025-2026 property taxes, credits are over $14,000. Check out the uploaded document for more info as the list continues! This home is a unique opportunity to purchase a Baltimore County Historical Landmark fondly referred to as "The Manor" by the Essex community. The Manor is located on a quiet peninsula called the Bauernschmidt Manor Community and has views of Middle River, a short distance up river from the Chesapeake Bay. The Community has a private beach with dock, picnic tables, and boat launch accessible by key for dues payers (dues currently $60/yr), if you like to socialize, the Community hosts several events at the beach throughout the year. The Manor is 4,656 square feet in the main and upstairs levels, the basement has additional square footage that runs the full space of the structure and has two exits - door to the side yard and new custom storm doors to the pool deck. The property is two lots that total 0.75 acres, complete with a newly lined in-ground 25,000-gallon pool which was recently converted to salt water, and 15'x20' paved fire pit patio - perfect for entertaining guests all year round. There are four bedrooms, five bathrooms and from the cupola or newly renovated 2nd floor balcony, one can enjoy the relaxing views of Middle River and the Chesapeake Bay. The Manor has been carefully renovated over the years to stay with the style and architecture of the early 1900's, including the sellers fully renovating one of the upstairs bathrooms with an exquisite black and white tile floor, resurfacing the original 6' claw foot tub, and unique standalone shower with curved glass door and oversized subway tile. Two new oil boilers were installed in 2020 for the baseboard heating system which features four zones to heat The Manor, two new oil tanks totaling 500 gallons were installed in the basement in 2019. The sellers installed a stone wall garden around the pool fence with hose irrigation system connected by mobile Wi-Fi unit for automated watering, they will be taking some, but not all, of the exotic plants, including 6' lilies imported from Europe. If you enjoy gardening, the peninsula is called "Planters Paradise" given the rich soil where plant life thrives. The sellers will be providing a credit to refinish the hardwood floors in the downstairs den and kitchen area, and much of the furniture will convey with the sale, including three-bedroom sets, dining room set, and some of the downstairs office furniture. The Manor was built by Frederick Bauernschmidt, who began construction on the home in 1904; the initials "FB" may be seen throughout The Manor. The Bauernschmidt family is well known for their brewery and contributions to hospitals, the Maryland School for the Blind, the Maryland School for the Deaf, and several facilities for families unable to make medical payments. The Manor’s restorations have continued throughout the years and it even became a bed and breakfast for a few years in the 1990’s, the signs still hang in the stairwell to this day. In 1991, the Bauernschmidt Manor became a Maryland Historical Landmark . This astonishing home is a piece of Maryland history and you could be part of it!
