List price: $2,450,000

Year built: 1913

Real estate agent: Charlie Hatter, Monument Sotheby’s International Realty

Property size: 8,523-square-foot home has seven bedrooms with five and a half bathrooms on .61 acres.

Unique features: The sprawling Guilford home was originally constructed for a notable contributor to Maryland’s history — John Edwin Greiner, whose engineering firm, J.E. Greiner Company, designed and built the Chesapeake Bay Bridge over 70 years ago.

The house was designed [by Ellicott & Emmart, the architects behind a number of other Baltimore homes and buildings, including St. David’s Episcopal Church in Roland Park and the Woman’s Club of Roland Park. They’re known for fusing Colonial Revival and French Beaux Arts styles.

Now well over a century old, the recently restored and custom-renovated home showcases original accents like refinished hardwood floors, towering white columns and ornate trim.

Past a grand entryway, an updated kitchen has a marble-topped island and Wolf appliances. Doors in the dining and living rooms open to a wrap-around patio off the main floor for indoor-outdoor living. And a secret Murphy door leading to the finished basement can be opened by pulling forward a book on the shelf, as if out of a movie.

Upstairs, a large primary suite is complete with a room that can be made into a generous closet, access to a balcony and an en suite marble-filled bathroom with a free-standing tub and walk-in shower.

Other modern amenities include an elevator, three new HVAC systems and a two-car garage.

The home is a brief stroll from Sherwood Gardens.
