Welcome to this lovingly maintained, one-owner home tucked away on a peaceful corner lot in the desirable Forge Hill Estates—just minutes from the historic Antietam Battlefield. A graceful weeping willow welcomes you at the edge of the yard, while blooming Rose of Sharon bushes create a natural border, adding to the serene curb appeal. Multiple flower beds await someone with a green thumb and a vision to bring them to life.
Inside, the home is in excellent condition and proudly showcases its original charm. As one of the first homes built in the neighborhood, it offers a solid foundation, a thoughtful layout, and endless potential for updates that make it your own.
The main level features a spacious primary suite with dual sinks and a tub/shower combo, plus convenient hall access for guests. A formal dining room, eat-in kitchen with center island, and a cozy family room divided by a half wall offer an inviting flow for entertaining. The laundry is smartly tucked behind accordion doors in the kitchen. Slide open the glass doors and step onto your expansive 12x22 maintenance-free deck, complete with a retractable Sunsetter awning—perfect for shaded afternoon relaxation. A generously sized shed in the backyard is ready for your gardening tools or next workshop project.
Downstairs, the finished walk-out basement expands your living space with a large rec room, gas fireplace, full bath, ample storage, and direct access to the backyard. Upstairs, you’ll find two bedrooms and another full bath, along with plenty of storage throughout.
Major systems are all in great shape: the roof and furnace are just 5 years old, the Bosch dishwasher and fridge are 3 years old, and the water heater was replaced in 2024.
What truly sets this home apart is its location. Embrace the outdoors with nearby trails, kayaking, or fishing on the Antietam Creek—or enjoy a scenic wine tasting just down the road at Antietam Creek Vineyards. Locals love Nutter’s Ice Cream, while coffee aficionados will find their haven at Little Brick Coffee. Cap off your weekend with live music and a cold brew at Potomac Ridge Brewing. With Shepherd University just 10 minutes away and access to highly rated schools, this isn’t just a home—it’s a lifestyle grounded in nature, history, and community.
