Located on a tree-lined residential street near the center of St. Michaels , MD, the "John T. Ford House, circa 1875," is one of the town's historic treasures. The house was restored and enlarged in 2001, with care to preserve the original elements and 19th century charm. Features include high ceilings; 3 fireplaces (one of which is operable); original doors and hardware; center hall stairs w/walnut banister; built-in china cupboard and beautiful heart-pine floors throughout the original house. A tasteful, award winning restoration by Victor MacSorley in 2001 included a spacious, modern kitchen/family room addition; attached 2-car garage and a large (18' x 21') room above, with a full bath. This room, w/tray ceiling and lots of glass, is accessed by a separate stairs. It can function as a bedroom, office, artist studio, media and/or exercise room.
