Summer is here and the season for outdoor adventure is here! A myriad of adventures are right outside your front door! Your chance to own a home like this does not come along very often! Nestled in the highly sought-after Harpers Ferry historic district on Camp Hill, this remarkable brick home offers a rare opportunity to own a piece of American history in an unbeatable location. Overlooking a charming public park, enjoy lazy afternoons people-watching from your front porch or listening to the town’s brass band perform on the 4th of July—right from your doorstep. Originally built in 1856, this home is steeped in rich Civil War history. Legend holds it once served as officer's quarters and housed soldiers, with Civil War-era graffiti still visible on the walls. Inside, the home is warm and inviting, with natural light spilling across the original hardwood floors. The spacious layout includes four bedrooms and 1.5 baths, with the full bath thoughtfully updated approximately seven years ago. Period details like original wood doors and a vintage summer kitchen add character, while thoughtful updates such as a New Motor in Air Handler (2025), Central Heat and Air Conditioning with Programmable Thermostat and Wi-Fi enabled (2015), Hot Water Heater (2016), Reorganized Electrical Panel (2016) and newer stair treads combine old-world charm with peace of mind. The living room features a striking crystal lamp with a story of its own—gifted by a family member of the previous owner, who resided in a stately Washington, D.C. home. Below the main house, a cool and dry space offers the perfect wine cellar, as well as ample storage for kayaks, bikes, and gear. Just steps to the Appalachian Trail (1.5 blocks away) and walking distance to dog-friendly restaurants, the river, Lower Town, and the MARC train, this location is ideal for commuters, hikers, and history lovers alike. Plus, with the Appalachian Trail Conservancy Headquarters just around the corner, you’ll be living at the symbolic halfway point of one of America’s greatest adventures. Don’t miss your chance to own a truly unique piece of history in one of Harpers Ferry’s most treasured neighborhoods.

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
