Property Description

Just outside historic Gettysburg, this one-of-a-kind 11.5-acre property combines the character of a historic stone home with remarkably flat, usable acreage and the convenience of being just minutes from town, shopping, dining, and major routes. Whether you envision a small farmette, equestrian property, homestead, or simply room to enjoy the outdoors, this property offers an incredible amount of flexibility. The beautifully maintained stone home is filled with historic charm while benefiting from thoughtful updates throughout. All of the windows have been replaced, and major systems have been renovated, allowing you to enjoy the character of an older home with important modern improvements already completed. Enter from the side deck into the foyer, which flows into the kitchen and dining area. The updated kitchen features a beautiful island and butcher-block countertops, while a large picture window brings in natural light and overlooks the surrounding countryside. Hardwood floors extend throughout much of the home. A full bathroom and laundry on the main level add everyday convenience, and the flexible floor plan offers the possibility of creating a first-floor bedroom. Upstairs are three bedrooms and a completely renovated full bathroom. A walk-up attic provides abundant storage, while the upstairs hallway also offers access to a balcony overlooking the property. Outside is where this property truly shines. The predominantly flat acreage provides exceptional usable space, complemented by approximately six wooded acres. Relax on the large wrap-around covered porch, enjoy the koi pond and stocked pond, or spend time in the large fenced garden. Multiple outbuildings expand the possibilities even further. The impressive bank barn is currently home to goats on the first floor and offers tremendous potential for livestock, horses, storage, or other agricultural uses. The property's distinctive indoor silo adds even more historic character. An additional outbuilding is equipped with its own furnace and A/C, creating a comfortable year-round space for working on vehicles, hobbies, a workshop, or additional storage. With its flat and versatile acreage, historic stone home, substantial barn and outbuildings, gardens and ponds, and a location just outside Gettysburg, this is a rare opportunity to enjoy country living without giving up convenient access to town.
