Willows Farm 11606 HANDBOARD ROAD, KEYMAR MD

Willows Farm is a historic pre-Civil War farmstead of 164 rolling acres originally deeded in 1791 by Samuel Chase, who was a signer of the Declaration of Independence and a member of the United States Supreme Court. Most of the 25-acre Bunker Hill Property is a slightly undulating grassy plateau at one of the highest points in the lower Piedmont, between Thurmont to the west and Baltimore to the east.

The Bunker Hill Property consists of four recorded lots of 6.8, 6.8, 7.14 and 4.05 acres, all with powerful wells and septics to support large houses. Currently an award-winning cattle operation, the property can be a magnificent horse farm, a family compound, an exclusive residential development, or a combination of all three. The one constant is the truly spectacular views of the Catoctin Mountains and Camp David to the west, and the long view to the northwest towards Gettysburg, where, on a clear day, one can see the tower at Gettysburg Battlefield Park through binoculars.

Shaded by mature trees near a spring fed brook, the five-bedroom, four-bathroom main home dates back to 1821 with an added wing in 1865. Outbuildings include a partially rebuilt bank barn, three cattle barns, a farm office, and a garage/storage facility as well as the traditional spring and bake houses from the original farmstead. Willows Farm is conveniently located 80 minutes from Baltimore and Washington DC, and just 25 minutes from cities like Frederick and Gettysburg.

Unquestionably, this is an extraordinary opportunity to own a historic piece of farmland in bucolic Frederick County, Maryland.
