Property Description

Imagine mornings spent strolling along fruit trees that line the pasture fence, evenings watching solar lights glow across the yard, and weekends relaxing by the creek. This 3-bedroom, 1-bath home on 4.25 acres sits on an extremely quiet valley road, offering rare privacy and serenity while still being just minutes from Middletown, Jefferson, and Frederick for convenient access to daily needs. A board fence encloses about 1.5 acres of yard and pasture, providing an inviting space for outdoor living, pets, or recreation. Originally built in the 1860s, the home has been thoughtfully updated with modern efficiency. Major improvements include a new engineered shingle roof installed in 2024 with a 25-year warranty, a freestanding 25-panel solar array added in late 2024 with its own 25-year warranty (owned outright, no lease or financing to assume), and a high-performance insulated siding system installed in 2025. A mini-split central air system was added in 2023 for efficient heating and cooling. Inside, you’ll find granite countertops, hardwood floors, and an updated bathroom. High-speed Xfinity internet and cable are available, making it easy to work from home while enjoying the peace of country living. For full transparency: termite evidence was previously discovered and has been professionally treated, and while the property extends to a creek at the rear with acreage mapped in FEMA’s flood zone, the house itself is not, and no flood insurance was required by the mortgage lender. Property is being sold as-is.
