This 1820s historical colonial home has been completely restored while preserving its original charm and integrating modern conveniences. The home's original features, such as wide-plank fir floors, original hardware, antique fireplaces (non working), and intricate moldings, have been carefully preserved and restored, maintaining its historic character. Vintage pocket doors, 10 foot ceilings and a sweeping staircase evoke a sense of elegance, while updated light fixtures mimic the charm of yesteryear. The custom kitchen is a stunning blend of old-world charm and contemporary functionality. Designed to complement the home's heritage, it features Kraftmade self closing cabinetry, granite countertops, and a farmhouse sink which overlooks the manicured rear yard. High-end appliances are seamlessly integrated into the design, while a breakfast bar provides both workspace and an additional eating area. Though the home embraces its historic beauty, it features entirely new mechanical systems for modern efficiency. A state-of-the-art HVAC system provides year-round comfort and large, refurbished windows allow natural light to flood the interior while maintaining historical accuracy. Replaced roof with 50 year architectural shingles adds to the comfort of peace of mind. Adjoining the first floor living space in the home is an additional 1360 square feet awaiting your woodshop, home office, artist or yoga studio or future additional living space. This space housed the original dry goods store in Burkittsville, known as "God's Little Corner". The property was also stage coach inn and a civil war hospital. The two story summer kitchen is a delightful blend of history and practicality, showcasing original stone, a large hearth or fireplace, and exposed wooden beams that reflect its early craftsmanship. Overall, this 1820 colonial offers a perfect balance of historic elegance and modern luxury, ideal for those who appreciate architectural heritage with contemporary comforts. To the rear of the property is a two car sized garage ready for your tools and toys!
