About this property

Exceptional 129-Acre farm with three residences, premium soils, and outstanding views of Sugarloaf Mountain. A rare offering in the heart of Maryland's agricultural countryside, this exceptional 129-acre farm combines highly productive farmland, outstanding improvements, and extraordinary scenic beauty. Protected by an agricultural preservation easement, the property offers permanent protection from future development while preserving its agricultural integrity and unmatched privacy. Historic downtown Frederick and the Route 85 employment/retail corridor are less than 15 minutes away. At the center of the property is a custom-built brick ranch residence constructed in 2004 by respected builder Howard Payne. Encompassing more than 5,000 square feet of finished living space, the home is thoughtfully positioned to capture breathtaking eastern views stretching across the countryside to Sugarloaf Mountain. Designed for both comfort and entertaining, the residence offers three spacious bedrooms, two full bathrooms, and two half bathrooms. The main level features 9-foot ceilings throughout, complemented by beautiful red oak hardwood flooring in the living areas and bedrooms, while the foyer, kitchen, and bathrooms are finished with ceramic tile. The property also includes two impeccably maintained tenant residences that provide an attractive income opportunity with projected gross annual rental income of approximately $48,000. Tenant House #1 is a well-maintained all-brick Cape Cod offering four bedrooms and two bathrooms and is currently vacant, providing immediate flexibility for a new owner. Tenant House #2 is a charming two-bedroom, two-bath farmhouse that has benefited from numerous updates and is currently leased on a month-to-month basis. The farm's land is among its most valuable assets, featuring some of the finest agricultural soils in Maryland. Approximately 82% of the acreage is classified as Prime Farmland, with the remaining 18% designated as Farmland of Statewide Importance, creating an exceptional foundation for continued agricultural production and long-term stewardship. Agricultural improvements include a 5,000-square-foot Morton building with concrete flooring and separately metered electric service, a traditional bank barn, a loafing shed, and a calf barn, providing excellent infrastructure for a variety of farming and livestock operations. Whether envisioned as a productive working farm, a private country estate, or a multigenerational family compound, this remarkable property offers a combination of fertile soils, quality improvements, income-producing residences, and truly magnificent views that is rarely available in today's market. For the discerning buyer seeking privacy, long-term land stewardship, and exceptional rural living, this farm represents a unique and irreplaceable opportunity.
