Discover Tranquility, a Rare 38-Acre Retreat in the Foothills of the Catoctin Mountains! If you've been searching for that rare combination of privacy, natural beauty, and build-ready convenience - your opportunity has arrived. Nestled just outside of town, this extraordinary 38+ acre property in Frederick County offers an idyllic setting for your future home. I'm thrilled to introduce you to a place that feels like a hidden treasure, tucked away at the end of a mature, tree-lined, paved driveway in the gentle foothills of the Catoctin Mountains. From the moment you arrive, you'll notice the peace and quiet - the only sounds are birdsong and the rustling of leaves. This is the kind of place where you can wake up to deer grazing by the creek and spend your evenings watching ducks skim across the pond at sunset. Speaking of water - this land features two flowing creeks and two picturesque ponds. The larger pond was thoughtfully designed as a duck pond with a functional floodgate, and both ponds have bass and bluegill, making it a haven for fishing and wildlife observation. Nature lovers and hunters alike will appreciate the abundant wildlife, with regular sightings of turkeys, deer, foxes, and rabbits. Beyond its natural beauty, the property is fully prepped for building your dream home. A recent survey has been completed, on-site electricity is ready, and the well produces an impressive 12 gallons per minute. Even more, the lot is approved for a four-bedroom conventional perc - a rare and valuable advantage in a setting like this. It's not often a parcel of this size and character becomes available - especially one that offers such serenity, yet is just minutes from town amenities. Whether you envision a full-time residence, a vacation retreat, or a private hunting and fishing lodge, this land offers endless potential in a truly captivating location. If you'd like to schedule a private tour or learn more, I'd be happy to walk the land with you and share its story. This is more than just a piece of property - it's a lifestyle waiting to be lived.
