About this home
There are homes that impress by their scale, and others that distinguish themselves through design. At 407 W. 2nd Street, both come together in an exceptional residence overlooking Frederick's beloved Baker Park. Built by Mitchell & Best as part of the Historic Series at Baker Park, this stately Colonial offers more than 6,800 square feet of finished living space, five bedrooms, four full baths, and one half bath across three beautifully appointed levels. Timeless architectural character is complemented by an extraordinary collection of thoughtful improvements, creating a home that feels both established and entirely current. Since acquiring the property, the current owners have undertaken an extensive transformation with design by Tuscan Blue. At the heart of the home, the completely reimagined 2025 kitchen pairs custom hardwood cabinetry, quartz countertops, and a generous center island with an exceptional collection of Wolf, Sub-Zero, and Cove appliances. Thoughtful storage solutions, two sinks, and carefully considered lighting make the space as functional as it is beautiful. An adjoining breakfast area, separate walk-in pantry, and beautifully redesigned butler's pantry with illuminated reeded-glass cabinetry and Sub-Zero beverage refrigeration further elevate the experience of everyday living and entertaining. Throughout the main level, graciously proportioned rooms showcase architectural details rarely found in newer construction. The elegant dining room is distinguished by its gold-painted ceiling and French doors opening to the covered front porch, while the spacious family room features a hand-painted coffered ceiling and gas fireplace. A private office with built-in bookcases connects to the front sitting room through pocket doors, offering flexibility without sacrificing the home's traditional character. Upstairs, solid oak hardwood flooring enhances the beautifully appointed bedroom level. The expansive primary suite features dual walk-in closets and a luxurious en-suite bath redesigned in 2026, complete with heated terrazzo floors, a TOTO bidet toilet, and thoughtfully selected designer lighting and finishes. Three additional bedrooms, including a private guest suite, two additional full baths, and convenient upper-level laundry complete this floor. The finished lower level offers an exceptional extension of the living space, with an expansive recreation and game room, dedicated exercise room, fifth bedroom, full bathroom, abundant storage, and exterior access. Equally compelling are the home's outdoor spaces. The expansive covered front porch provides an extraordinary vantage point from which to enjoy the beauty and changing seasons of Baker Park. To the rear, a beautifully landscaped and fenced yard with custom outdoor living spaces provides privacy and room to gather. A detached two-car garage features dual Tesla chargers, a built-in heater, and additional storage conveniences. Sophisticated whole-home automation integrates lighting, automated shades, climate control, security, cameras, and access throughout the residence. Commercial-grade Wi-Fi, a whole-house Generac generator, and thoughtfully integrated systems provide another layer of modern comfort and convenience. Rarely does a home offer such a compelling combination of architectural character, considered design, modern functionality, and an exceptional setting. Just moments from the restaurants, shops, and cultural offerings of Downtown Frederick, 407 W. 2nd Street presents a distinctive opportunity to enjoy the very best of life beside Baker Park.
Baker Park, located between Carroll Creek Park and Downtown Frederick, is a historic and park-centered Frederick neighborhood with tree-lined streets and a landmark urban green. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Baker Park Band Shell and the paths circling Culler Lake, where joggers, picnic blankets, and festival crowds share the lawn. Early-20th-century brick colonials and porch-front homes sit beside wide sidewalks and mature canopy trees. Carroll Creek’s bridges and public art add a waterside rhythm a short walk away. Cultural pillars nearby include the Weinberg Center for the Arts, the Delaplaine Arts Center, and the National Museum of Civil War Medicine.
