Centrally-located
You're never far from where you need to be with this convenient location.
This two bedroom house is situated on a 1.3 acre lot, located right off Maryland 51. This house was built in the 1960's and its age is still evident in features like the original hardwood flood. Much of the interior has been updated and we are excited to offer the house to you as our guests.
You will have the property to yourself. Guests have access to the entire main floor. Enjoy the yard surrounding the house as well. The basement and detached garage are not available for guest use at this time.
The kitchen, with all new appliances, has been stocked with the basic things (pots, pans, utensils, etc) you need to cook a meal. If you prefer to go out for meals there are a couple small town options, a favorite being the subs from Millstone Country Store just 4 miles up the road and lots more options in the Cumberland area, about 20 minutes away.
There is a small workspace in the second bedroom for those working away from home. There is Starlink internet access to keep you connected during your stay.
You're welcome to enjoy the fire pit area in the backyard. Firewood and kindling are provided.
We enjoy hosting guests who are biking on the towpath. The Oldtown access point is just a couple miles from our house, but there is a busy road without much of a shoulder between the access point and our house. Please feel free to message me about shuttle and food options. No smoking of any kind is permitted anywhere on the property. Due to potential allergies of some of our guests and our high standard of cleanliness, pets are not allowed. So whether you're just passing through or in the area to explore local attractions, this is a great resting spot. The Paw Paw tunnel, historic downtown Cumberland, C&O canal towpath, and more are all located within 15 miles. There's hiking, biking, canoeing, and fishing options within a few miles of the house or stay at the house and enjoy a quiet getaway. There's a few books, games, and a roku tv for your use. The tv will be guest mode to allow you to login to any of your subscriptions and conveniently choose a date on which you will be logged out. There is a doorbell security camera on the porch at the back door entrance.
