Many custom features combine to make this a comfortable and stylish home. The main house was designed and built by Shepherdstown custom builder Michael F. Taylor to replicate the charm and solid construction of New England homes from the past. Custom details include newly refinished tongue and groove pine floors throughout, western red cedar exterior siding & trim, fir framing and roof decking of rough cut poplar, custom millwork and cabinets, salvaged antique doors and hardware. A complementary addition designed by local Grove & Dall’Olio Architects includes a farmers porch and mudroom and an extra deep 1,344 sq ft fully finished insulated garage with full attic for storage and custom carriage garage doors with remote openers. Every thoughtful detail was built with precision to add charm and character to this 3 bedroom 1 ½ bath 2,670 above grade sq foot custom home.

The chimney has been serviced and inspected. Newer windows and custom storms are low E and insulated. The septic system features a Chesapeake Bay friendly Bord na Mona peat filter. The quality in this home is unmatched. A full list of details and updates is included in documents. The cottage, converted from an authentic barn, was renovated with the same quality and attention to detail as the main house. It is now a charming 2 bedroom 1 ½ bath 1,514 sq ft dwelling with a south-facing wall of windows looking out on the beautiful scenery and wildlife. The current owners have used this dwelling as a profitable, fully booked airbnb. It can convey as fully furnished and equipped to continue as a turnkey high end short term vacation rental, long term executive rental, fully furnished guest home or for extended family use.
