Description
Step back in time and experience the beauty and legacy of "Fair Hill," a remarkable historic farmhouse nestled on 22 picturesque acres in the heart of Adams County. Dating back to a 1774 land warrant, the original 1½-story portion of the home was built prior to 1798, with the larger two-story farmhouse addition thoughtfully constructed in the early 1800s. Rich in history, the property has been meticulously documented in Gettysburg House History, tracing its story from the original land warrant to the present day. The home proudly displays a Gettysburg Civil War Round Table, bronze plaque signifying the home's presence during the historic battle. The iconic bank barn is equally distinguished, recorded by the Adams County Barn Preservation Society and identified as Barn #377. A winding stream with a charming bridge, sweeping lawns, mature trees, and breathtaking countryside views create an idyllic setting unlike any other. Recent land improvements have expanded the usable outdoor space around the home and barn, opening up several acres and enhancing the property's natural beauty. Inside, history and craftsmanship blend seamlessly with modern conveniences. Exposed wood ceilings in the hall and living room, a beautiful tin ceiling and custom mantel in the family room, and thoughtful updates throughout preserve the home's character while providing today's comforts. The gourmet kitchen offers custom cabinetry with pull-out shelving, a new KitchenAid refrigerator with a transferable extended warranty, and a professional Verona range from Italy. Extensive improvements have been completed by professional contractors, including Hull Electric, GPS Plumbing, Hanover Glass, Maryland Tree Experts, and Stauffers Landscaping. Recent upgrades include professionally installed luxury vinyl flooring throughout the second floor, LED inset lighting, additional electrical outlets, automatic LED closet lighting, new attic electrical service, new electric baseboard heating with individual thermostats in every room, a new water heater, yard hydrant, and sump pump and drainage system. Two custom glass shower doors by Hanover Glass add elegance to the bathrooms. Outside, the home has been lovingly maintained with freshly painted porches and exterior trim, a new upstairs porch ceiling, repaired barn siding, and oversized 6-inch galvanized gutters with leaf filters that convey with a lifetime warranty. New landscaping and plantings completed in 2026 provide exceptional curb appeal, and the property plan from Stauffers Landscaping conveys with the sale. The Bank Barn is a timber frame 80x40, 6,400 sq ft barn and has been restored with electrical, cable and wifi and used as an event space for their daughters wedding reception. It could be turned into a full time event space, entertainment space or office, or a horse barn, Whether you're seeking a private country retreat, hobby farm, equestrian property, or simply a piece of American history to call your own, this extraordinary estate offers timeless charm, modern updates, and an unparalleled connection to the past. Opportunities like this are truly rare.
