Enjoy country living with plenty of room to spread out on 2.5 acres in a natural rural setting with mature trees and lush landscapes. The farmhouse was built in 1920 and has many features that you would see in a house constructed during that time, but will need a significant amount of love to restore it to its former glory. The septic system was replaced in 2013 and well in 2010. The property has a modern 2 story structure built to the rear of the main house that could be used for a multitude of purposes. It was last used to store antiques. There are several outbuildings including a workshop, corn crib and shed. There is an inground pool that has not been operational for several years but may be salvageable. The very back of the property opens up to a sunny area that could be used for a variety of things including some agricultural activities. A small stream that runs beside it called the Whaleyville Branch was once used as a waterway to transport lumber to the Pocomoke River/Chesapeake Bay, but now it's a quiet spot to sit and enjoy nature. Not in a flood zone. The front of the property once looked toward a train depot that carried passengers to Ocean City, and sits on the Southern end of the Village of Whaleyville. Centrally located 15 miles to Ocean City and Salisbury, there are so many possibilities for this very unique place that's been family owned for over a century. Come take a look and see the possibilities.
