Property Description

History lover? Civil War enthusiast? Have you ever dreamed of owning a genuine piece of Washington County heritage? This rare and remarkable property invites you to step back in time. Built in the 1800s, 17848 Lappans Road is an architecturally significant log home, distinguished by its exposed exterior log beams - an uncommon and striking feature seldom seen in surviving log structures today. Picture yourself on the charming front porch in your rocking chair, sweet tea in hand. Gather with family and friends on the side porch and deck to converse over fried chicken and biscuits. Scour the grounds for authentic Civil War relics. The current owner has found some! Inside, the home offers two bedrooms, a den, and an additional bonus area ideal for reading, relaxing, or play. The living room features a fireplace ready to accommodate your pellet stove, creating a warm and inviting space. A unique underground root cellar has been converted into a convenient main-level laundry room. It's been said that there's a gun hole on the back wall of the house - you will see it when you book your Showing! Set on .64 acres, the property offers numerous perennial gardens and ample parking for five vehicles. Recent updates include a new furnace, mini-split system, and toilet. Windows were replaced a few years ago, and the septic was recently pumped and inspected, passing successfully. Beyond its charm as a residence, this home could also serve as a captivating short-term rental for history lovers, re-enactors, and travelers who are seeking an authentic connection to the past. Ideally located (10 minutes from Antietam National Battlefield, 20 minutes from South Mountain State Battlefield, and less than an hour from both Monocacy Battlefield and Gettysburg National Military Park), the home is surrounded by some of the most important landscapes of the Civil War era. Schedule your tour of this enchanting Antebellum home today. Maybe you will be the next steward of this piece of American history!
