Inside, timeless details define the space—soaring 10-foot ceilings, vintage pocket doors, intricate moldings, built-ins, and decorative stone fireplaces that create striking focal points throughout. The kitchen has been thoughtfully redesigned with granite countertops, soft-close cabinetry, a farmhouse sink, premium appliances, under-cabinet lighting, and a generous pantry, seamlessly blending historic charm with everyday function.

The detached stone summer kitchen, complete with exposed beams and a large working fireplace, offers exceptional versatility as a studio, workshop, or creative retreat. A detached three-bay garage with new doors and electric service provides functionality rarely found in properties of this era.
Once serving as both a stagecoach inn and Civil War hospital, although Not on the Historic Registry, the home carries a rich local legacy while offering the comfort expected today. Located just minutes from Middletown, Brunswick, Frederick, national parks, and nearby wineries, it delivers the perfect balance of small-town charm and modern convenience.
