Welcome to your own spot on Great North Mountain. This fully renovated home in Shawneeland offers the kind of space, freedom, and natural setting that’s getting harder to find. It sits on two separate parcels totaling 0.68 acres, giving you breathing room and flexibility for the future. Whether you want a larger yard, extra privacy, or room for something else down the line, you’ve got it.

The house was fully renovated in 2022: roof, siding, windows, HVAC, kitchen, bathrooms, and flooring. The hot water heater and washer were replaced in 2024. In other words, the major updates are done. It’s move-in ready without the usual list of “someday” projects.

Inside, the layout is simple and open, with natural light throughout. Step outside and you’re in the woods, with the kind of quiet that just doesn’t come with close neighbors. And while it feels tucked away, you’re only 15 minutes from Winchester Medical Center and about 20 minutes from downtown Winchester. It’s quiet, but not isolated.
One of the best things about living here is the access to the community lake and several ponds. You can swim, fish, canoe, or just sit on the beach and unwind. There are also playgrounds nearby and a well-loved farmers market just a short drive away.
There’s no HOA. Shawneeland is a sanitary district managed by Frederick County, with an annual fee that covers road maintenance and access to the trash and recycling center on Shawnee Trail. Xfinity internet is available. The house lot has an existing well and septic system, and both parcels qualify for public water hookup through Aqua if you ever want to build or connect later.

It’s hard to explain what living here feels like until you do it. Morning walks where the only sound is the wind in the trees. Evenings where the stars are actually visible. A little more space. A little quieter. A little more breathing room.
That’s what this place offers. If that sounds like the kind of setting you’ve been looking for, come take a look
