About This Home
Step back in time—without giving up a single modern luxury. With over half a mile of private frontage along the South Branch of the Potomac River, this extraordinary 85+ acre property offers a rare opportunity to live immersed in natural beauty, rich history, and timeless serenity. From fishing and kayaking to skipping rocks or simply soaking in the peaceful sound of flowing water, the river becomes a way of life. A private gravel drive welcomes you home, crossing a charming bridge with the river flowing gently beneath. At its heart sits a restored 1812 farmhouse with over 2,500 square feet of beautifully updated living space, featuring oak and heartwood floors that blend historic craftsmanship with modern comfort. The land includes approximately 30± acres of fertile tillable fields, 26± acres of pasture currently leased for $1,500/year, and 30± acres of mature woods for hiking, hunting, or riding. A large stocked pond offers a perfect spot for fishing and reflection, while fruit trees and berry bushes provide seasonal harvests and homemade treats. Panoramic mountain views surround you with year-round beauty, and a hand-hewn log cabin tucked beside a babbling creek serves as an ideal guest cottage, studio, or peaceful retreat. This is more than just a home—it’s a legacy, a lifestyle, and the kind of place you dream about and now, it can be yours.
