About This Home

As of November 2023

Spring Mill Farm located at 14120 Rover Mill Road is a magnificent 35.68 acre multi-generational farmland estate that leads with its peaceful and private setting, elaborate agricultural infrastructure, and historic charm of the incredible 19th century home with convenience of modern amenities.
Quietly set beyond a vast driveway you are welcomed to this beautiful home with idyllic covered front porch and park-like hardscaping and landscaping surrounded by a scenic vista of rolling hills and mature trees. Preserved in Howard County’s Ag Preservation program- “Farmland Forever”, this unforgettable property offers a lofted horse and show cattle barn with 9 oversized 14’x14’ stalls (4 fully boxed with doors, the remainder can be converted) with electric, water, and individual pasture lots, the 60’x32’ cattle barn portion with lean-to for tractor storage, 32’x100’ storage shed with an office and half bath, a run-in shed for horses or cattle with storage area for feed, a 100’x150’ fenced riding ring, as well as additional outbuildings for further storage space. The interior of the farmhouse showcases quality features and updates including hand cut random width solid oak pegged hardwood flooring, solid pine 6 panel doors, 3 wood-burning fireplaces/stoves, multiple cedar closets, generous room sizes, sunroom with red cedar planked walls, distinguished trim, and so much more.
The formal living room is a wonderful welcome to this historical home highlighting classic crown molding, a brick accented fireplace, and French doors leading to the exquisite formal dining room. The dining room is a wonderful entertaining area well-suited for celebratory meals highlighted by wainscoting and a bay window. The gracious floor plan provides a home office allowing you to work from home with ease that can be accessed from the living room or powder room. The eat-in kitchen is spacious and well-appointed with updated finishes including statement-making quartz counters and backsplash, stainless steel appliances, luxury vinyl plank flooring, and a pantry. The kitchen also offers a casual dining space and a sitting room with Pennsylvania Bluestone slate floors, a wood-burning stove and convenient wood storage closet with inside and outside access. Spend quality time with loved ones in the cozy family room with wood paneled walls and the third fireplace evoking feelings of a getaway lodge vacation. With an impressive cathedral ceiling, the sunroom is a bright and comfortable room that has been outfitted with lofty casement windows and a concealed built-in mini bar with a sink, ready for your next gathering with family and friends. The side entrance of the home hosts a convenient mud room with the durable luxury viny plank flooring, a half bath and laundry room combination that are readily available after a long day spent outside.
Retreat up the oak staircase to the primary bedroom that is graced by a walk-in closet and an en-suite bath. The three additional bedrooms are generously sized with one offering an attached bonus room. The shared full bath concludes the upper level of the home. The home is also equipped with a root cellar that can be used as a storm shelter, a recently replaced upper level HVAC system, and a new roof installed in 2017.
Outside, beautifully landscaped grounds surround the property, creating a private oasis for relaxation and outdoor entertainment. The brick patio provides an ideal spot for al fresco dining or simply enjoying the panoramic scenery.
Bring your passion for land, agriculture, privacy, and entertainment! This remarkable and one-of-a-kind legacy property aims to please and is truly the embodiment of western Howard County’s good life!
