“Land: they’re not making any more of it,” said Mark Twain. A rare opportunity to own 140+ acres in Baltimore County that is ONLY 3 miles to I-795, ONLY 4 miles to the Under Armour Performance Center, ONLY 5 miles to the Owings Mills Metro! 18 miles to Camden Yards; 19 miles to the Horseshoe Casino; 19 miles to M&T Stadium; 25 miles to BWI. Where else are you going to find this much land, with this much serenity and seclusion, and this much potential, this close to the places you want to be? Prefer small towns over the city? Saffell Road is only 2 miles from historic Main Street Reisterstown. Adjacent to Maryland’s DNR Soldier’s Delight’s 1,900 acres. Saffell Road features its own private 90-acre forest preserve for your recreational or hunting pursuits. Your private forest can also be sustainably harvested, providing base income for the property. Just a stone’s throw away is the vast Liberty Reservoir for fishing, kayaking and canoeing. The historic 1910 (est, rumored to be older) farmhouse is sited in the middle of approximately 50 rolling acres, on the highest spot, with spectacular sunrise and sunset vistas. No need to choose your view! You can enjoy morning coffee watching the sunrise wrapped in a blanket on your front porch and unwind out back watching the sun set. On a clear day, you can almost see to Westminster! You may be inspired to expand upon this historic charmer, which features Maryland’s famous “Chesapeake Hue” stone, mined at the 200 year-old Butler quarry and internationally prized for its combination of quartz, mica, feldspar, iron and tourmaline. Farmhouse interior sports recently updated kitchen, fabulous stone fireplace, 2 bedrooms, 1.5 baths! Charming outbuildings include stone spring house/smokehouse/studio, plus a large bank barn, massive machine sheds, kennels and more – plenty of storage space for equipment, collector cars or toys. The cleared acres are ideally situated for a variety of farming activities, such as (but not limited to) hops, horses, vineyards, pick-your-own fruit/vegetable/flower farm (sunflowers!) , goat yoga, sheep, alpaca, corn mazes, horseback riding stable (lessons, guided trial rides, pony parties), Thoroughbred breeding/training (convenient to Pimlico), petting farm, herb farm, truffle farm (all those woods!) , sheep, alpaca or llamas. Approximately 10 acres current in board-fencing. Open land has been maintained (mowed) but not actively farmed, so could possibly qualify as organic. Stream, plus reportedly home to mineral springs (your own bottled water?). Or lease the land to a local farmer and just enjoy the income. No hoa. Walk to charming Coppermine Green Valley swim club. Property is in conservation and forestry easements. Parcels Tax ID#s:2300006004, 2300006005,230006006. Buyer to confirm current taxes on all 3 lots. Being sold as is. Proper showing of all 3 parcels takes about and hour and a half, so please plan accordingly. Qualified buyers only. Property might qualify to have a second home, keep the first house for farm manager, guest house or tenant house. Buyer to verify percs, permits and uses. Do not visit property without appointment. Listing agent must be present. PLEASE NOTE: Property is being sold strictly AS IS WHERE IS. Dining room recently suffered some damage due to a water leak; dining room ceiling and walls have been gutted to studs; damaged floors removed to sub-flooring. Land plus location location location.
