Escape to your own private mountain retreat just minutes from Middletown and downtown Frederick.
Nestled on nearly one acre and bordered by protected conservation land, this beautifully updated authentic log home offers the perfect blend of privacy, natural beauty, and modern comfort. Enjoy easy access to Gambrill State Park, the Appalachian Trail, shopping, dining, and highly rated Middletown schools while coming home to sweeping views of South Mountain and Harpers Ferry Gap, where breathtaking sunsets become part of your everyday routine.
Inside, you’ll find three spacious bedrooms, three full bathrooms, and warm, inviting living spaces rich with authentic log home character. Extensive updates throughout the home include the kitchen, bathrooms, bedrooms, family room, and beautifully refinished oak hardwood floors. The thoughtfully designed kitchen features granite countertops, a farmhouse sink, and quality finishes that perfectly complement the home’s rustic elegance. The HVAC system was replaced in 2016, and spray foam insulation provides enhanced comfort and energy efficiency year-round.
The inviting living room is centered around a beautiful stone fireplace with a classic stone surround, while the home’s striking full-height exterior stone chimney showcases the timeless craftsmanship and enduring character of this exceptional log home.
The walk-out lower level offers outstanding flexibility with abundant natural light, a private entrance, full bath, closet, and a cozy wood stove—making it ideal as a guest suite, recreation room, home office, or private living space.
Outdoor living is every bit as impressive. Relax on the expansive two-level covered porches while enjoying your morning coffee, watching hummingbirds and butterflies, or simply taking in the peaceful mountain setting. Thoughtfully landscaped gardens and mature plantings create a private outdoor sanctuary that offers beauty throughout every season.
The impressive two-story detached log garage is a remarkable extension of the property. Both the home and garage have been meticulously maintained, with the logs professionally sanded and re-stained to preserve their beauty and integrity. The expansive 28’ x 22’ lower level, complete with a private entrance and a large picture window overlooking the property, provides exceptional flex space for a music studio, art studio, home theater, fitness room, workshop, private office, hobby space, or future guest accommodations. Bright, inviting, and remarkably versatile, it’s a space that easily adapts to your lifestyle.
A beautifully crafted entrance welcomes you with impressive natural stone steps, extensive low-maintenance stone landscaping, elegant stone walkways, and inviting patio spaces that blend seamlessly with the surrounding landscape. The oversized two-car detached log garage features a convenient side-door entrance, while its lower level offers a separate private entrance, adding even greater functionality and versatility. Every detail has been thoughtfully designed to enhance the property’s timeless mountain-lodge appeal.
With no city taxes and no HOA, this extraordinary property offers the rare opportunity to enjoy the serenity of country living without sacrificing convenience. Whether you’re searching for a full-time residence, a peaceful weekend escape, or a one-of-a-kind mountain retreat, this exceptional home delivers timeless craftsmanship, modern updates, breathtaking scenery, and an unforgettable lifestyle that is rarely available.
