About This Home

As of August 2023

Experience the BEAUTY & CHARM of this one-of-kind, 19TH CENTURY GEORGIAN FARMHOUSE, perfectly located on nearly 6 LUSH ACRES. With TERRACED PATIOS and a CHARMING FOOTBRIDGE leading you over the beautifully meandering Monocacy Creek, the ROMANCE of this exceptional property is palpable. The original home dates back to the early 1800's and offers ELEGANT APPOINTMENTS, random-width BIRCH HARDWOOD FLOORS, and crown & dentil molding. The Sillivan & Chiles addition provides more modern touches including a GOURMET KITCHEN with Sub-Zero & Dacor appliances, warm and welcoming family spaces, plus an ELEVATOR leading to all 3 levels making this a home for all ages. WALLS OF WINDOWS & numerous french doors bring the outside in to create PRICELESS VIEWS. Enjoy a morning coffee while sitting on your WRAP-AROUND DECK overlooking WELL-MANICURED GARDENS, or throw a fishing line into the creek for some early evening RELAXATION. A SPECTACULAR PROPERTY like this only becomes available ONCE-IN-A-LIFETIME.
