Nestled on Frederick's north end, this brick-front colonial in Dearbought includes custom details with French-country flair.

From the flagstone front walk accentuated with a sundial, the front entry opens to a two-story foyer with chair rail and crown molding. An arched window above the door provides natural light, and the hardwood flooring continues throughout this level.

French doors on the left access a study with crown molding. To the right, the living room features crown molding, chair rail and a bay window. Doric columns frame the dining room beyond, its brass chandelier set off by a plaster medallion and tray ceiling.

Arranged around a center island with an eat-in bar, the adjacent kitchen is equipped with granite tops, oak cabinets and a farmhouse-style sink with a copper basin. Several display cabinets, and the French door to the pantry feature vintage-style bubbled glass. There are double ovens, a built-in microwave, a wine chiller and a Thermador cooktop with gas burners, grill and griddle. Pressed copper tiles line the backsplash and accent the range hood.

Beyond the kitchen, the family room has crown molding, wainscoting and a gas fireplace with a marble hearth. To the right, a breakfast/sunroom features a tile floor and a beamed cathedral ceiling. French doors here access a deck overlooking the backyard.

A powder room with a pedestal sink, a laundry/mudroom with ceramic tile, and access to the attached two-car garage round out this level.

Upstairs, off a hardwood landing with crown molding and a lighted niche, double doors open to the master suite that has Berber carpet and a tray ceiling. Columns flank the entry to a sitting area, which features a hardwood floor and a built-in cabinet with a mini-fridge. His/hers walk-in closets also are part of the suite, as is a ceramic-tiled bath with a dual vanity, a large soaking tub, a separate shower and a private toilet area.

Three additional bedrooms with neutral carpet also are here, and are served by a hall bath with a granite-top vanity and a ceramic-tile floor with a pebble border. The custom shower stall also features pebble tile.

The unfinished lower level provides storage/workshop space. The space also has a utility sink and a rough in for a bath.
