Step back in time and embrace the beauty of history with this remarkable home, nestled on just under 40 acres of picturesque land! Built in the 1700s and thoughtfully updated, this stunning 3,700-square-foot residence offers the perfect blend of old-world charm and modern amenities. Inside, you'll find 6 spacious bedrooms, 3.5 baths, and exceptional hardwood flooring throughout the majority of the home. The heart of the home is the expansive family room, complete with beamed ceilings, which leads into the well-appointed kitchen featuring granite countertops, new appliances, a central island, and a dining area that’s perfect for gatherings. The cozy living and dining rooms each boast their own fireplace, providing a warm and inviting atmosphere for every season. The main level master suite is a true retreat, offering a vaulted ceiling, walk-in closet, and a luxurious en suite bathroom. Additional highlights include a 5-car garage, covered porch, spring house, picnic pavilion, former drive-through gas station, workshop, recreation room, and office — plenty of space for hobbies, entertaining, and enjoying the great outdoors. A thoughtful addition in 2004 expanded the home, enhancing its functionality and comfort without compromising its historic integrity. Located just minutes from popular destinations like Whitetail Ski Resort, Cowan's Gap, and numerous hiking trails, this property offers the best of both worlds: serene country living and easy access to outdoor adventures. Historic sites and Mercersburg Academy are also nearby. For those seeking even more space, an additional 17.63-acre parcel located directly across the street is available for sale separately, featuring two ponds, a running stream, and historic bank barn — an ideal opportunity for anyone looking to raise livestock or pursue equestrian activities. The property is also home to a variety of wildlife, including deer, fox, turkey, geese, and ducks, making it a true nature lover's paradise. The layout and unique features make this an ideal setting for a variety of ventures offering a wealth of potential — a charming Bed & Breakfast, host memorable weddings, run an Airbnb, or set up a multi-generational living space. This home is truly one-of-a-kind — you have to see it in person to appreciate all it has to offer!

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.
