Historic John Kurtz House c.1805 is one of the oldest homes built in this charming and well preserved historic village of Uniontown, Maryland. Backing to farmland and set away from the road, this significant historic home has been meticulously and lovingly restored. Featuring gorgeous original wood floors, exposed beam ceilings, exposed log walls, and fireplaces with original wood mantels, as well as, tastefully renovated bathrooms & a stunning kitchen with stainless steel appliances and granite counter tops. This is a unique opportunity to own an extraordinary piece of 19th century history where the town grocer, John Kurtz once lived and sold his dry goods, and later, in 1884, the town shoemaker, Reuben Matthias, lived here and had his cobbler shop out back. Over the past 200 years, there have been many fine stewards who walked these same floor boards, sat in rocking chairs on the porch and enjoyed a historic community lifestyle. In fact, from the John Kurtz House s spacious wrap-around front porch, if you squint and let your mind go, you can imagine life as it once was in this wonderfully preserved village of Uniontown.This is a home of rare & beautiful distinction, close to DC & Baltimore, yet a world away.
