A Sunday drive. We always wanted to know how to get to the beautiful homes bordering the Severn River on the other side of the bridge. Hidden neighborhoods sprout off a strip mall drag…..you would never know these pockets of waterfront homes exist without some serious google mapping. The architecture wasn’t particularly impressive, until we came upon THIS house…..we call it The Library
Why the Library? In many ways this house looks like a public-use building....notice the front door....it could totally have a neon EXIT sign hanging in the foyer and still look stylish. We can picture stacks of books leading to the grand reading room...a two story square structure made of wood siding and glass.
According to Zillow, the house was built in 1959. Overlooking a small creek, the building is embedded within a forest. In a few weeks we wouldn't be able to take a picture of this private dwelling.
This picture of the back of the home doesn't do the grand room justice. I seriously wanted to run up this hill to get a better shot.
Maybe the original owner was an architect, as is often the case with homes before their time. We really hope the homeowners come through with more information about this cool contemporary.
