About this home

NEW PRICE IMPROVEMENT ! Nestled on a serene 1.01-acre lot, this exquisite pre-civil war era, farmhouse-style residence was originally built in 1858 and had a major renovation in 2025, and seamlessly blends historic charm with modern luxury. It once was the home of General Thomas Spencer, who was the commanding officer of the North's Maryland Heights Fort in the Civil War and then handed down to his family through the generations. The property boasts a stunning exterior, featuring classic frame construction and inviting outdoor spaces, including a spacious and charming porch that beckon for leisurely afternoons and gatherings with friends. There are stunning mountain and valley views year round. Outside there is also a large 24 x 24 detached 2-car garage. Enjoy knowing this home has a brand new roof and gutter system, along with all new windows and a new HVAC heat pump dual zone system. Step inside to discover a warm and inviting interior that exudes comfort and sophistication. The beautifully renovated heart pine hardwood floors are throughout the entire first floor and second floor, except for the bathrooms, laundry and primary closet which has a very tasteful LVP flooring. The heart of the home is the expansive kitchen, complete with an island, upgraded quartz countertops, and all brand new cabinetry and lighting perfect for culinary enthusiasts and entertaining. There is a stainless steel range and dishwasher. The kitchen flows effortlessly into a cozy family room, creating an ideal space for relaxation and connection. A formal dining room adds an elegant touch, perfect for hosting memorable dinners. With an entry-level bedroom or office space, this residence offers flexibility to suit your lifestyle needs. The attic provides additional storage or potential for creative use, while the main floor laundry room adds convenience to daily living. There is also a new full bathroom on the main level that was added during the renovation. The second floor of the home offers a primary bedroom with a walk in closet and 2 guest rooms along with a full bathroom. You can access the full bathroom privately from the primary bedroom or from the hallway. This bathroom is quite spacious and features a tiled shower and tub combination along with a vintage wooden vanity that once adorned the Ritz Carlton Hotel! Outside, the property is a true oasis, surrounded by lush greenery and mature trees, offering breathtaking mountain views that change with the seasons. The cleared lot provides ample space for outdoor activities, gardening, or simply enjoying the tranquility of nature. This home is not just a residence; it's a lifestyle. Enjoy peace of mind knowing that the current owners had all the electrical, plumbing, mechanical and septic inspections completed and approved by Washington County. Outside the home you can enter the basement through the 2 Bilco doors and walk down the steps and you will find a concrete floor and a brand new water heater, pump tank and sediment filter system. The basement is climate controlled by the HVAC system and is perfect for storage! Part of the home also has an insulated crawlspace.
