Beautifully updated and maintained elegant home in highly regarded Smithsburg school district. 7 bedrooms, 4.5 baths, spacious wrap-around porch, grand front hall with wood burning stove leading into formal dining room and living room each with its own fireplace (gas insert in living room!). High ceilings, original hardwood floors, and plaster walls throughout. Large eat in kitchen with separate sink for bar/coffee that adjoins to a space that could be a playroom or office. First floor also features a bedroom with full bath, perfect for guests or in-law suite. Second level contains 5 bedrooms, 2 full baths, and a laundry room. Third floor has been renovated with two carpeted rooms (great for a home office!) a kitchen/play space, a full bath, and a deck with sweeping views of the surrounding hills and countryside. Prior owners rented out this third floor space as a separate unit (stairs to ground have been removed but could be easily re-added). Property conveniently located 10 minutes from restaurants and shops in Waynesboro, PA, 15 minutes from the recently expanded and enhanced Liberty Mountain Ski Resort, 25 minutes from Frederick, Hagerstown, and Gettysburg, and roughly an hour from DC and Baltimore. Whether a full-time residence, a weekend getaway, or a potential rental property, this home is large enough to accommodate a big family or group but still has an abundance of charm to qualify as cozy!

Rural Village District
The Rural Village designation is provided to preserve the unique historic or rural character of existing villages by encouraging compatible development within a defined village boundary. It also identifies clusters of existing development in the rural areas that may be candidates for public facilities in the future. The zone intends for permitted development to be generally of a similar density, scale and use type and mixture as that which exists in the village. The zone is also designed to prevent large amounts or inappropriately scaled development or uses that would detract from the existing rural or historic character of the village. It is expected that development will be residential and a limited amount of mixed rural services. More than one use may be permitted on one parcel in accordance with specific guidelines. Public water and sewer may be available for the purpose of resolving or preventing health issues. Use of public utilities to permit greater density than the density specified in this section is not permitted.
