Property Description
Step back in time while enjoying modern comforts in this charming pre-Civil War 1850 Federal-style home located in the heart of historic Boonsboro. Rich in architectural character, this home is larger than it appears and showcases timeless details including double chimneys, Flemish bond brickwork, cut limestone window lintels, a grand side entry hall with a dramatic three-story open staircase, and beautifully refinished random-width hardwood floors, with exciting potential for future expansion in both the attic and basement. The upper level features two spacious bedrooms and a full bath. The main level offers a welcoming front parlor, a recently renovated kitchen, and a generous family room perfect for everyday living or entertaining.
