This authentic early 1800s farmhouse has been lovingly maintained and expanded over several generations and offers both a living history of traditional farm life and the comforts of a newer home. The farmhouse overlooks a bucolic rolling pasture with views of the restored tobacco barn, currently home to a family of Harlequin Sheep known as AWool Farm. Agricultural use of this unique property has helped preserve this peaceful rural area, however the home is surprisingly close to desired amenities in both Edgewater and Annapolis.
The original farmhouse was built in 1827 of brick and clapboard siding, and was later covered with cedar shake shingles. The interior features wide plank hand cut floor boards, plaster walls and high ceilings. The farmhouse entryway welcomes you with its original staircase and newel post. The living and dining rooms both have wood burning fireplaces and beautiful mantels. Upstairs are three bedrooms, two of which also feature fireplaces that would have provided heat for the original home.
The farmhouse was expanded over time with additions to mirror the original structure and expand living space. The newer section of the home features the kitchen and a large addition providing an expansive family room, additional bedrooms and bathrooms, as well as a finished basement. Windows in the newer addition overlook the rolling pasture and barn, providing perfect sunset views every day of the year.
The loving restoration and care of this home has been a privilege for the current homeowners and those who came before them. Since this property is zoned for agricultural use, the current owners chose to raise Harlequin sheep on the property. They and their three children have enjoyed their venture as Awool Farm and the relationships they have built in the world of sheep. The restored Tobacco Barn is the perfect home for their small herd, who happily wander from pastures to the barn, and just finished their spring lambing season. Bee hives and vegetable gardening are also naturally part of life on the farm. The current owners have hosted many gatherings to share the joys of small-scale farming with friends and the community. Prior owners of the farm have both owned and leased the barn for horses, cattle and chickens have been past residents as well. The guidelines for maintaining the agricultural use of the property are fairly simple, and provide a tremendous tax benefit to the current and future homeowners. This is a rare opportunity to purchase a property full of possibilities, and enjoy a unique pastoral setting close to downtown Annapolis.
