About this home
Step into timeless charm paired with thoughtful updates in this meticulously maintained 1800s home, where historic character meets modern improvements. The seller has invested heavily in the structural, mechanical, and exterior components of the property, providing peace of mind for the next owner. The home features original chestnut trim, doors, stair railings, and stained glass details that beautifully preserve its historic appeal. Solid oak hardwood floors, ¾” subflooring, and reinforced load-bearing support contribute to a strong and sturdy feel throughout the main living areas. Brand-new ceilings were installed in the living room and foyer, enhancing both comfort and presentation. The exterior was painted four years ago, and the architectural-shingle roof is just four years old, including both sheds. A brand-new pitched concrete sidewalk surrounds the home, thoughtfully designed to direct water away from the foundation. Additional exterior highlights include a Bilco basement door, split-rail fencing marking the property line on one side (the lot extends over 220 feet deep from the front of the property to the rear, reaching the neighboring driveway), mature landscaping including a stunning Japanese maple, floodlighting, and a spacious 0.69-acre lot ideal for a future pole barn. Inside, the main level offers real hardwood floors, a formal living room, foyer, dining room, full bath, and kitchen. The kitchen includes original wood cabinetry, a new window, and washer/dryer hookups, with the option to relocate laundry to the basement. A vestibule connects the kitchen to an enclosed breezeway with metal shelving that conveys. The powder room off the dining room features ceramic tile, a new vanity, and a mirrored cabinet. Upstairs includes a full bathroom, all new double-hung windows, and a large bonus area off the bath that could easily be transformed into a walk-in closet, nursery, or sitting room. A brand-new vanity mirror and faucet are included, along with a complete shower kit to easily convert the tub into a full tub/shower combination. The walk-out basement has been completely transformed from its original dirt floor into a versatile space featuring concrete floors, framed front walls, multiple electrical outlets, new steps, and rough-ins for a future powder room. A toilet is already in place, making the addition of a basement powder room straightforward. The seller added structural reinforcement, installed a new sump pump with a backup, and prepared the space for multiple uses including a home office, workshop, wine cellar, or recreation area. A second washer/dryer hookup is already in place. Mechanical updates include a brand-new gas stove with convection oven, refrigerator, dishwasher, and hot water heater (October 2025), a 2016 furnace, a brand-new boiler, a new well pump (July 2024), and an ejector pit with the sewer line run above grade. Smoke and carbon monoxide detectors are installed throughout. The attic offers walk-up access, new flooring, additional insulation, and flexible space suitable for storage, a playroom, or hobby area. New blown-in insulation beneath the attic floor adds energy efficiency. Located minutes from the rail trail, Walmart, and a variety of shopping, with easy access to Maryland and nearby historic steam trains, this home offers a rare blend of character, care, and convenience. A truly special property where the heavy lifting has been done — ready for its next chapter. Professional photos being done and will be available on or before January 1...
