About this home
Welcome to 17 Park Avenue, a remarkable historic residence situated in the highly desired Belle Grove Square neighborhood in the heart of Westminster. Known as the Stoner House and documented in the City of Westminster’s architectural inventory, this distinctive Victorian-style home offers the rare opportunity to own a piece of local history. Built circa 1865, the residence is rich with the craftsmanship of an earlier era, showcasing gleaming hardwood floors, substantial millwork, soaring light-filled windows, French and pocket doors, built-in cabinetry, and an array of architectural details that give the home its unmistakable character. A welcoming foyer accented by a beautiful stained-glass transom window sets the tone upon arrival. From here, enter the gracious living room, where crown molding and lofty windows create an elegant yet comfortable gathering space. French doors complement the home's period architecture and provide a graceful transition between rooms. The adjoining formal dining room is perfectly suited for everything from intimate dinners to holiday celebrations. A handsome double pocket door, substantial window and door trim, and an elegant vintage chandelier lend sophistication while honoring the home's historic roots. The spacious family room offers a relaxed gathering place centered around a charming brick fireplace with a wood stove insert. A wall of custom built-in shelving and cabinetry provides both functionality and architectural interest, creating an inviting setting for everyday living. One of the home's most memorable spaces is the kitchen and breakfast area, crowned by a dramatic vaulted wood-plank ceiling with exposed beams. A vintage-style wall-mounted sink, cabinetry, and shelving enhance its casual farmhouse character, while numerous windows brighten the space. There is ample room for a breakfast table, along with convenient access to one of the home's enclosed porches for an effortless connection between indoor and outdoor living. Adding another special dimension to the property are three enclosed porches, each with its own charm and purpose. One offers expansive screened openings overlooking the greenery, an ideal setting for morning coffee or a quiet afternoon with a book. Other features include decorative latticework and beadboard detailing, while a private enclosed porch adjoining the primary suite creates an intimate retreat and a wonderful extension of the bedroom. Upstairs, the primary suite offers generous proportions and an abundance of character, enhanced by tall windows, extensive built-in cabinetry and storage, a walk-in closet, an en-suite full bath, and direct access to its private enclosed porch. Two additional bedrooms and a conveniently located laundry room complete the upper level. The appeal continues outdoors on approximately 0.23 acres, where a fenced backyard, established landscaping, stone patio, covered brick front porch, and original smokehouse further distinguish the property. There is ample space for gardening, entertaining, relaxing outdoors, and enjoying the picturesque surroundings of Belle Grove Square. The location is equally compelling. Belle Grove Square offers the beauty and character of an established neighborhood while placing you close to the shops, restaurants, cafés, community events, and local businesses of Historic Downtown Westminster. McDaniel College, nearby parks, recreation, and everyday conveniences are also within easy reach, while Routes 140, 97, 31, and 27 provide convenient connections throughout Carroll County and beyond. 17 Park Avenue is more than a residence; it is a home with a story. From its documented history and distinctive architecture to its gracious rooms, three enclosed porches, original smokehouse, and coveted Belle Grove Square setting, this special property offers a rare opportunity to preserve the character of the past while creating a home for the future.
