This is also known as a contingent contract with a kick out clause. What does that mean?

The house shows up in the MLS (multiple listing system) ' CONT/KO' (Contract /Kick Out).

The house can still be marketed and shown to other buyers and should there be another offer without a contingency, the first buyer is given a time limit to remove the contingency. If they cannot provide proof that they can move forward with the contract, the second buyers can proceed with the purchase... in other words...they "kick out" the first one.

Swimming With Icicles.. My Fountain of Youth!

Margaret Rome Baltimore, Md. 410.530.2400 : Real Estate Brokerage in Baltimore, MD

Why would you be thinking of icicles and swimming at the same time. If you had a wonderful indoor pool, you could swim, exercise or relax while watching the freeze of a Baltimore winter. These were icicles from our winter last year in Baltimore, Wouldn't it be fun to watch this winter wonderland from your own indoor pool?

When the seller of my special home read Swim In Winter.. he shared his thoughts below.

The seller shared his thoughts and feelings about owning this contemporary rancher at 2301 Velvet Ridge Dr. Owings Mills, MD. 21117 .... You can enjoy this home all year round!

''Liked your letter concerning the pool in our house. The pool was known as my "Fountain of Youth" for almost 20 years. I used to swim for 15-20 minutes in warm 80 degree water every day before breakfast and going to work. It loosened my muscles and calmed my joint pain.

Joan joined me 3-4 times a week. She reminded me, that in the winter with snow and ice, we had icicles hanging from the deck in front of the pool windows. It gave her a great sense of power.

Another advantage ... the pool remained clean. We did not need anyone to remove the "stuff" that falls into an outdoor pool. It was also safe. No fences or security to worry about. I WOULD NEVER HAVE AN OUTDOOR POOL IN OWINGS MILLS. Most of my neighbors consider it lucky to have it's use 3 months a year. Most of the time it is too hot, too cold or too rainy.''

Swim in Winter...Make a Few Friends Jealous!

Even with another blizzard like last winter, this Baltimore home would be a pleasure. You have a two car garage plus the wonderful perk of having your own indoor private swimming pool. You can use it each and every day and not even think about the weather. Of course in the summer time, you can open the sliding glass doors and enjoy the heat of our Baltimore summers...but you don't have to wait for those months with temperatures in the eighties.

You can swim in the winter in Baltimore!

How about entertaining friends and family at a holiday swim party. Sounds like fun for New Years party!How about a Super Bowl Party? An Anniversary Party? Just an excuse to entertain party... and you could make a few friends jealous!

This new listing on Velvet Ridge is really exciting.. Unique Contemporary With Indoor Pool !

Today was a perfect Fall day in Baltimore, a bit breezy in the 60's and the leaf colors are just starting to turn. I wanted to share the outside beauty of this very contemporary home on a private wooded lot.

These pictures were taken from the balcony which is off the living and dining room areas. Thought you would enjoy seeing the Autumn colors just beginning to turn.

Unique Contemporary With Indoor Pool !

Margaret Rome Baltimore, Md. 410.530.2400 : Real Estate Brokerage in Baltimore, MD

Unique Contemporary With Indoor Pool! This is going to be one of my favorite listings...it is not a "Cloneonial"!

Here in the Baltimore area market, so many homes are what I call "Clone-onials." You know, the lovely 4 bedroom, 2-1/2 bath, large family room, 2 car garage, Colonial-style house in a good school district. They can be anywhere from modest size to McMansions, but they often look as if some giant cookie-cutting machine spit them out into neat developments of cul-de-sacs. Now there's nothing wrong with these – they sell well, and I won't turn them down – but they aren't much fun, either. What is fun is the challenge of selling an unusual property. When I started thinking about "Clone-onials," I looked back and found that the transactions I enjoyed the most did not fit that mold. Clone-onials?

In a very short time, this is going to be one of my favorite listings. It is definitely not a "cloneonial" but a very contemporary home with everything you could want on the first floor... including the master suite, family room, laundry, gourmet kitchen, wooded views and a two car garage.

But the excitement of this home is the INDOOR swimming pool where the season makes no difference.

Whether you need the pool for therapy, entertaining or for morning laps, you will have the use year round. Swim for health and swim for beauty! In addition, this home also has a sauna and an outdoor hot tub!
