Own a Piece of Maryland History!
The iconic Stansbury Mansion presents an extraordinary opportunity to acquire one of northern Harford County's most significant historic estates. Overlooking the picturesque Eden Mill Nature Center and Deer Creek, this remarkable Federal-style brick mansion was constructed circa 1801 using clay harvested directly from the property. The estate is recognized for its exceptional architectural integrity and historical significance, offering a rare chance to become the steward of an irreplaceable landmark.
Perched atop a scenic hillside, the three-story residence showcases many of its original period features, including soaring ceilings, deep-set windows, four majestic columned porches, decorative moldings, heavy wood doors with original bubbled-glass transoms, hipped slate roofs, dentil molding, and beautifully preserved hardwood flooring. A grand mahogany staircase with a graceful cherry balustrade serves as the centerpiece of the home, connecting spacious rooms that open onto sweeping verandas overlooking pristine natural surroundings.
Four impressive fireplaces anchor the home's primary living spaces, while the generously sized kitchen area featured a walk-in pantry, the original dumbwaiter location, and direct access to the attached springhouse with its historic stone basins and shelving—an ideal space for a wine cellar, tasting room, or unique entertaining area. Two large bathrooms were thoughtfully added in 1965, one of which included a dedicated laundry area with washer and dryer. The bathrooms need to be re-created or positioned within the proposed rear addition.
Additional improvements include a charming stone-and-glass front porch, a historic brick outbuilding formerly served as the smokehouse but more than likely was used as a privy, and a detached three-car garage.
The property's wooded setting is surrounded by Harford County parkland, providing exceptional privacy while offering direct access to Eden Mill Nature Center and the scenic Deer Creek. Outdoor enthusiasts will appreciate nearby hiking trails, kayak and canoe launches, accessible boardwalks, wildlife viewing, and countless recreational opportunities.
