One of the stateliest homes in Maryland recently hit the market. Bracebridge Hall is a brick Georgian created in 1990 by architect David Easton. The home is 38,000 square feet of elegant style.

The dining room has an Asian-design mural and the paneled library includes a corner fireplace and floor-to-ceiling glass doors with access to terrace.
The home has eight bedrooms including a master suite that has a fireplace and a marble bath with a whirlpool as well as a steam shower.

The lower level of the home includes a billiards room, sitting room and mechanical rooms including four back-up generating systems. There is also a barn on the property as well as a two two-story Williamsburg Colonial style homes. Perhaps the strangest room on the entire estate is the conference room, a round room with a domed ceiling that is currently home to a massive boardroom table. Bracebridge Hall is listed at $34.5 million. After the jump, you could rule the world from your own home.
