Unique features:<\/strong> This three-story colonial has the traditional perks of a high-end home \u2014 a two-story foyer, lustrous hardwood floors and an inordinate number of bathrooms (six). But the all-brick home also has more offbeat features that may tip the scales for particular home-seekers. For instance, that cavernous foyer boasts a chandelier on a hoist system; the kitchen is full of (100) cabinets; and there’s a trickling waterfall in the back yard of the nearly 3.5-acre estate in Howard County.<\/p>\n

Want more one-offs? There’s a dumbwaiter to the three-car garage and a heated koi pond. The breakfast room has a fireplace. The dining room has two chandeliers. The butler’s pantry has a wet bar. And the home has several space-saving pocket (sliding) doors \u2014 though, with more than 7,600 square feet of living space, the place has elbow room throughout.<\/p>\n

So much for anomalies. Like a growing number of trendy residences, this one boasts a home theater and fitness center. There’s also a basketball hoop outside, a perk that’s curiously absent from many high-end estates. The property abuts a tract of 275 acres of preserved land.<\/p>\n

What’s missing? A swimming pool, though there’s plenty of room to build one. Until then, one can swim with the fishes; the koi won’t bite.<\/p>\n
