Located in the historic Homeland neighborhood of Baltimore, 5406 Saint Albans Way is a stately all-brick Georgian home set on a lushly landscaped .67-acre double lot. This elegant residence boasts five bedrooms, three and a half bathrooms, and an impressive blend of timeless architecture and modern updates, including a stunning addition designed by Jamie Snead of Ziger/Snead Architects. With over 5,000 square feet of living space, the home features a formal layout perfect for both everyday living and grand entertaining. Its classic style is evident from the moment you step through the paneled double entry doors into the gracious foyer, where an arched portal leads to a sweeping staircase and architectural cased openings connect to the main living areas.
The main level unfolds with a harmonious blend of traditional elegance and thoughtful design. To the left of the foyer is the formal living room, complete with a wood-burning fireplace and floor-length windows that offer lovely views of the gardens. Across the hall, the handsome library exudes warmth, featuring another fireplace, custom built-in bookcases, and French doors that open to a charming side porch. The dining room, designed with hosting in mind, includes a wet bar set within an arched alcove and easy access to the kitchen. Anchoring the rear of the home is the show-stopping family room addition, which invites natural light through expansive window walls and features a gas fireplace, radiant-heated ceramic tile floors, and French doors leading to the screened porch and bluestone patio beyond. The adjoining breakfast area, with its full-height bay window, is a perfect spot for casual meals while enjoying views of the beautifully landscaped grounds.
The gourmet kitchen is a chef’s dream, outfitted with custom cherry cabinetry by William Ohs, granite countertops, and high-end stainless steel appliances, including a Bosch refrigerator and Thermador ovens. A concealed back staircase provides additional access to the upper floors, enhancing the home’s flow and functionality. This level is completed by a convenient powder room, designed with elegant marble and granite accents, and French doors that open to the side porch for seamless indoor-outdoor living.
Upstairs, the second level is anchored by the lovely primary suite, also designed by Jamie Snead. This private retreat includes a spacious bedroom, a serene bath with a soaking tub and glass-enclosed marble shower, and a custom-fitted dressing room with built-in wardrobe cabinetry. Two additional bedrooms on this floor share a well-appointed hall bath. The third level offers two more bedrooms and a full bath, perfect for guests or a home office setup. The home’s two-car garage is conveniently attached, with an adjacent parking pad for additional vehicles.
The exterior of the property is as impressive as the interior, with meticulously maintained gardens, mature trees, and a thoughtfully designed bluestone patio with a curved seating wall, perfect for outdoor gatherings. The covered side porch, accessible from both the library and powder room, provides additional space to enjoy the surrounding beauty. With .67 acres of professionally landscaped grounds, 5406 Saint Albans Way offers a rare opportunity to own a piece of Baltimore’s architectural history in one of its most sought-after neighborhoods.
