Introducing **746 Valley Rd., Knoxville, MD**—a rare opportunity to own a piece of American history in one of Washington County’s most historic areas. Built in 1840 and thoughtfully renovated in 2022, this stone farmhouse once served as a Civil War hospital and now blends modern comforts with preserved historical charm. Nestled less than a mile from the Potomac River, Appalachian Trail, and C&O Canal, this home offers two bedrooms, one full bath, and over 1,700 square feet of living space on an unrestricted one-acre lot. The original chestnut wormwood beams, refinished plank floors, and granite coach stepping stone plinths at both entrances honor the home’s rich past, while the remodeled kitchen with stainless steel appliances, granite countertops, and painted wood cabinets ensures modern convenience. The updated bathroom features custom tiling, a double-bowl granite vanity, and a glass-sided shower. The lot offers breathtaking views of woods, mountains, and a neighboring pond, with ample space for future expansion or personal landscaping projects. History lovers will appreciate the Civil War artifacts found on-site, while outdoor enthusiasts will revel in the proximity to Harper’s Ferry, local breweries, and the Potomac River. Recent upgrades include septic certification, water system service with black light, electrical rewiring, and a dry-locked basement with a repointed stone foundation, perfect for future finishing. Whether you’re looking for a family home, a weekend retreat, or a unique Airbnb opportunity, 746 Valley Rd. combines history, nature, and modern living in one remarkable package.
