525 Small Reward Rd



























































































































Description
“Small Reward Road, Huntingtown 20639, was an original grant dating to 1688, from Leonard Calvert, Lord Baltimore, to Capt. Richard Smith the 1st Attorney General of Maryland. The name “Small Reward” originates from a bounty offered by Lord Baltimore to Richard Smith to safely relocate settlers of the Colony of Virginia to Maryland. A bounty of 2500 acres was offered for the safe transport to Maryland. While en route to Calvert, two of the settlers died. Richard Smith was granted a “Small Reward” of 550 acres. Small Reward was acquired by the Lawrence family, and it seems probable that the dwelling house at Small Reward was built by George Lawrence circa 1725. It was a one and one-half story log house typical of the period, later it was augmented by a large addition which entailed a center hall and a Federal wing in the 1850s. The house retains the original cypress covering boards, original mantels and flooring, as well as some ancient wooden door locks. Small Reward, now furnished with antiques and family pieces, is an excellent example of the early Calvert County farm house.” Enter the original 1725 structure via a doorway to the left of the grand foyer. The original home consisted of a foyer, a family room & upstairs bedroom. The family room is a marvel with 1725 first growth chestnut hardwood flooring that spans 17" in width! The trim, doors, door hardware & fireplace mantle are all original to the 1725 build. Walk up the 300 year old staircase where generations of footsteps can be seen on the gently worn stair treads. Imagine the lives & lifestyles of the early settlers of America, who retreated to the 2nd floor bedroom for a good night's rest before working to farm the land early the next day. The upstairs bathroom was added to the original structure in 1975. Pass the front door to the Federal Wing of the home, which was added in 1850. The Federal Wing features heart of pine flooring that runs through out the foyer, the living room, dining room & second floor. The living room showcases a fireplace dating back to the 1850s with original wood trim detail, original solid core wood doors & door hardware as well as the exquisite, hand-carved wooden mantle. The living room fireplace brick was renovated with the 1975 build out. The dining room is where Lord Calvert, the 4th Lord Baltimore's portrait rests atop an original wood mantle of a fireplace that was converted to a pellet stove, for energy efficiency, by the current owner. The Federal Wing also consists of the second floor - featuring an additional 3 bedrooms and 2 full baths. The light fixtures throughout the home are original antique oil lamps which formerly contained floating candles and wicks that were lit to illuminate the home. They were all converted in 1975, when a major renovation was completed by one of the previous owner's named Dr. Jett. Jett Court in the Marley Run neighborhood bares his name! The kitchen & second floor bathrooms were also added in 1975. A structural engineer's inspection as well as a full home energy audit, HVAC system and hot water heater replacement, duct work insulation & roof were completed by the current owners. This incredible home is located in the sought-after Marley Run community & in close proximity to commuter routes 4 & 2 as well as local schools, shopping, dining & entertainment. 525 Small Reward Road is a home unlike any other - schedule your showing today!
