Welcome to your slice of paradise in Frederick County. This 27.34-acre wooded estate offers unmatched privacy, seclusion, and the best of country living--all behind a secure gated entrance shared only with a neighboring property via a deeded right-of-way. The owners completely rebuilt the home as well as entirely redesigned the landscaping to provide a great yard space, which opens the mountain surroundings, providing more sunlight. The pond was also dredged, improving the health of the pond and fishing. The custom-built home, completed in 2014, sits on the site of a previous residence and was designed with thoughtful craftsmanship and functionality in mind. With 3 spacious bedrooms, 2 full bathrooms, and a cozy wood-burning fireplace, the home perfectly blends comfort and rustic charm. Every detail speaks to quality and intention. Nature lovers and outdoor enthusiasts will be captivated by the landscape: a stocked pond with bass and catfish, and mature woods full of wildlife. Multiple hunting stands, including two premium 360 Hunting Blinds and 3 ladder stands, offer excellent recreational opportunities. Additional features include a home security system, custom cabinetry, granite countertops, hardwood floors, two outbuildings: a wood storage shed with a concrete floor and a Conex storage container, as well as a 9kW Generac for peace of mind. The wooded acreage is perfect for hiking, hunting, or simply enjoying the solitude of nature. This property also allows for the possibility of subdivision, which could provide a buyer with the opportunity to earn back some of his/her investment. Whether you're looking for a weekend retreat, recreational haven, investment opportunity, or a forever home in the woods, this property delivers unmatched tranquility with all the essentials for rural living--custom, functional, and absolutely one-of-a-kind.
