You will not find this kind of quality craftsmanship in a home built today. Built in 1950 as a summer house, this has been the family homestead for over 60 years (since 1955) and you will see the love and care the owners provided from the cellar to the roof and everything in between. The huge eat in country kitchen has custom made oak cabinets and so much counter space. Sitting room overlooking the back patio. Many rooms have gorgeous hardwood floors. One of the full baths is oversized with a separate shower, soaking tub and double sink. So much built in storage and the laundry is ready to go on the main level. Added bonus connected to the house - inlaw's efficiency suite with a kitchenette, full bath, built in storage (no need for a dresser). You can also access the suite via its private entrance too. The detached oversize 2 plus car garage is a woodworkers dream - so much space, storage, a floored second level just waiting for your touches and a pit to work on your cars. Storage for your lawn mower and other tools is attached to the back of the garage. The Sellers just finished installing a waterproofing system in the cellar (warranty is transferable) and a brand new septic system! Mature trees and landscaping, front porch and rear patio, large driveway on over 1 acre lot and so much more. Use the wood stove in the cellar or the oil forced air furnace to keep you warm in the winter and the CAC system to keep you cool in the summer. The house is ready for you to add a generator too just in case. Just into Frederick County, this home is not far from Rt 77 and the stores available in Smithsburg. The pictures cannot convey what a wonderful home this is! Buyer should verify room sizes.
