Beautiful 40-acre farm located just outside of Shrewsbury, only five miles from the Maryland border and minutes to Interstate 83, offering both convenience and country charm. This farm is not under an agricultural preservation easement and retains three additional building rights beyond the existing home. Approximately 20 acres are tillable, 10 acres are wooded, and the property is ideally positioned along a scenic stream, creating a peaceful and picturesque setting. The original farmhouse, along with a thoughtfully designed addition, was completely renovated and rebuilt from top to bottom in 2019—nearly doubling the home's square footage. The main living area features a bright, open layout filled with natural sunlight. Upstairs, the spacious primary suite showcases a vaulted ceiling, a private full bath, and two closets. There are three more bedrooms on the upper level, ideal for kids, guests, or hobby spaces. The second full bathroom on the upper level hosts the laundry, convenient for all bedrooms. Propane heat keeps the first floor warm and inviting, while electric heat on the second floor allows for efficient temperature control. Two walk-out basements—serving both the original farmhouse and the addition—offer abundant storage space. Picturesque views of the creek and a classic bank barn with a stone foundation further enhance the beauty and character of this exceptional property.
