Property Description
Who doesn't want to live at Laughing Wolf Farm? So charming, with a three-bedroom farmhouse with two full baths, and more outbuildings than you can imagine. There's a summer kitchen, a barn with stalls for horses, alpacas, and more, a spring house that makes a great art studio, and a smokehouse. Don't miss the root cellar. Oh, and barns--there are three! A bank barn with the stalls, a three-bay barn with chicken coops or rabbit hutches (or the previous owner kept pigs), and another barn for storage. Multiple options come to mind with this charming farmette just seconds to Main Street, Shrewsbury, and an easy commute to Maryland or York on I-83. All amenities are tucked away behind this traditional two story home, with sprawling outbuildings, a gorgeous bank barn with a metal roof, embraced by a stone foundation, features large stalls, a small tack room below, and a huge area above. The barn was re-sided with 1-foot by half-inch hemlock in 2011, and the metal was repainted and sealed at that time. The barn also has water and electricity. The field (pasture) or (football/lacrosse/soccer field) adjacent is totally fenced with a gate and will welcome any type of interest you can think of. If you prefer a cooler and tranquil form of play, then take a stroll through the walking/riding/ path throughout the approximate one-and-a-half acres of wooded area behind the barn with connecting paths with special little openings for a quiet getaway, firepit, and/or picnic! Enjoy the historic nature of this property with a working brick summer house with fireplace and loft, a root cellar with a CIP arched ceiling tucked into the hillside, a spring house with running spring, smokehouse with original hooks. An additional three bay (could be a garage) was also re-sided in 2011, with above storage and a mansion of a chicken coop along the side. Property also features multi-flora rose, daffodils, crocuses, bluebells, lilies, bee balm and raspberry, blueberry, blackberry, and wineberry bushes. The home is beyond charming and interesting with a first floor primary suite with the most detailed primary bath which is a reproduction of time gone by, stained-glass pocket door, beautiful tile floor, and knee walls with a stand-alone shower and tub, plus a vanity area to pamper yourself( fully handicap accessible). Rustic charm is the way to describe the kitchen with a working fireplace, several built-in pantries, and a walk-in closet/pantry as well. Large sink with greenhouse window for all your flowers, plus ample table space. Mud room behind the kitchen with a washer and dryer, furnace, and space to hang your hat. Two staircases to the upper level, one from the kitchen area and the other from the foyer off the covered front porch. Two very large bedrooms plus a bonus room with a bath. Welcome to your new happy place! There is no flood insurance required. Some third-party sites have an error.
