History meets contemporary living in this meticulously restored farmhouse. Nestled in a picturesque setting, this timeless beauty blends historic charm with modern convenience. The property boasts a wealth of recent upgrades, ensuring both comfort and peace of mind. A five-year-old roof and Pella windows adorn the exterior, while a four-year-old, upgraded HVAC system provides efficient heating and cooling for year-round comfort. Inside, no detail has been spared. Upgraded electrical service, a new electrical panel, wiring, and plumbing promise safety and functionality. The entire home has been thoughtfully reinsulated, covering walls, attic, and floors. The heart of this farmhouse is the charming kitchen with reclaimed heart pine flooring throughout the main level. Recessed lighting, Bosch stainless steel appliances, custom-made cabinetry, and built-ins, as well as hand-glazed tile backsplash, add an artistic touch to this gourmet kitchen. The updated and expanded tile bathroom offers a spa-like retreat and you'll also find historic touches throughout, including a gas stove in the entrance and the privilege of owning the second oldest Holly tree in Maryland. This property includes two heated and cooled outbuildings. The larger of the two was once a general store, perfect for a home-based office or business, complete with an EV charging outlet. The smaller outbuilding offers a tranquil reading nook—a private escape from the world. This farmhouse is more than just a home; it's a piece of history awaiting its next chapter. Don't miss the chance to make it your own.
