Welcome to historic "Small Reward" (c. 1726), an extraordinary 2.44-acre estate documented under Maryland Historical Trust Record CT-225. Steeped in history originating from a 1688 land grant from Lord Baltimore to Captain Richard Smith, Maryland's first Attorney General, this rare property combines over three centuries of preserved heritage with modern luxury. Constructed around 1726 by George Lawrence as a post-and-beam farmhouse and expanded in the 1850s with a formal Federal-style wing, the 4-bedroom, 3.5-bathroom residence retains magnificent architectural details. Highlighted by cypress covering boards, ancient wooden rim locks, and hand-carved fireplace mantels, the home boasts extraordinary historic flooring, including first-growth chestnut floorboards up to 17 inches wide in the original wing and heart-of-pine floors in the 1850s addition...................Flooded with natural light through abundant windows, the interior features a thoughtfully renovated gourmet chef's kitchen with premium finishes and custom cabinetry, alongside luxuriously updated bathrooms. Outside, the sprawling 2.44-acre grounds offer complete privacy, mature shade trees, and rolling lawns. A detached 2-story, 2-car contemporary garage features a versatile upper level ideal for an executive office, studio, workshop, or guest quarters. Experience an unparalleled opportunity to own a landmark piece of Calvert County history with every modern comfort.
