Property Description
OFFER DEADLINE - Offers have been received. Please submit best and final offers by 5/13/26 at 9:00am. Set on 6.32 picturesque acres just north of Elkton, this inviting log home farmette captures the essence of peaceful country living with a distinct equestrian and lifestyle appeal. A blend of open pasture, mature woods and a scenic pond creates a scenic backdrop. While the property's prime location-just a few miles west of Fair Hill Natural Resource Management Area with renowned equestrian facilities and trails, and only 15 minutes to Newark or Elkton-offers both privacy and everyday convenience. Outdoor living is the true highlight of this property. A screened front porch was added to capture tranquil pond views, while an oversized rear deck overlooks the wooded landscape, offering sweeping views of the surrounding wildlife and natural beauty. Whether relaxing or entertaining, the outdoor spaces are designed to take full advantage of the property's serene setting. The heart of this log home features an open floor plan with vaulted ceilings, a wood stove, great room, dining area and a recently remodeled kitchen. Completing the main floor are 2 bedrooms, a charming bathroom, and separate laundry room. The upper level area features an en-suite with a fully remodeled bathroom, and a walk-in closet. The sitting area overlooks the great room below. The charming "Pond House" offers additional space for guests, or as a private office, studio, or gym. This quiet furnished little retreat has living space, an upper sleeping loft, and a covered rear porch directly overlooking the pond. Equestrian and hobby farm buyers will appreciate the existing run-in shed with two stalls, along with open land that could easily be fenced to expand pasture for horses. For those seeking workspace and versatility, the detached 3-car garage is a true highlight-perfect for car enthusiasts and hobbyists alike, featuring workshop space, upper-level storage, and excellent potential for future expansion. An additional shed provides even more storage for equipment and outdoor needs. This is a rare opportunity to experience privacy, nature, and functionality in one beautifully balanced property. Morning coffee, evening sunsets, and quiet moments are all included!
