Originally built in 1856, this home is steeped in rich Civil War history. Legend holds it once served as officer's quarters and housed soldiers, with Civil War-era graffiti still visible on the walls. Inside, the home is warm and inviting, with natural light spilling across the original hardwood floors. The spacious layout includes four bedrooms and 1.5 baths, with the full bath thoughtfully updated approximately seven years ago.

The living room features a striking crystal lamp with a story of its own—gifted by a family member of the previous owner, who resided in a stately Washington, D.C. home. Below the main house, a cool and dry space offers the perfect wine cellar, as well as ample storage for kayaks, bikes, and gear. Just steps to the Appalachian Trail (1.5 blocks away) and walking distance to dog-friendly restaurants, the river, Lower Town, and the MARC train, this location is ideal for commuters, hikers, and history lovers alike.
