About This Home
Have you been looking for the perfect sophisticated and elegant historic home? Do you want everything; a gracious home, amazing space, acreage, a place for chickens, but also walkable and close to town? It sounds impossible, but you've found it! Welcome to historic Maplewood, circa 1872, know colloquially as The Tower. With no HOA and business B-1 zoning, this property presents endless possibilities, allowing dozens of potential uses! With stunning Italianate architecture and over an acre of land, this property is one in a million. This landmark home located in the heart of lovely downtown Middletown is a piece of history with all the modern conveniences. Rich with history, this amazing property was once the home and studio of John Chumley, a famous local artist. (The current owners have tons of photos and information about the history of the home that they'd love to share with you!) Too many amazing features to list; gorgeous high ceilings, original hardwood floors, wrap around built ins, huge windows, original millwork throughout, a generous kitchen and huge walk in pantry, fabulous mudroom, several outbuildings for storage and work space, an amazing chicken coop; the list goes on and on! Featuring four large bedrooms and two and half bathrooms, this home is spacious, beautiful, and elegant. The panoramic mountain views will take your breath away, especially from the tower studio room. And the home sits on a fantastic level lot behind public memorial land! All of this, located right in the center of town, so shopping and restaurants are just steps away. Middletown is an ideal location for commuters, with Rt 37, I-66 and I-81 within just a few minutes drive, not to mention all the natural beauty, activities, and amenities of the Shenandoah Valley. This is the one!!!
