    What's special

    Under Contract! Updated photos Time to get off the fence and make this iconic farmhouse your next home! History comes alive as the "Halmos House" is now available for purchase in walkable downtown Poolesville! Positioned on over an acre (just a stone's throw from Poolesville High School) with plenty of privacy, this 4 bedroom, 3 full bath gem features hardwood floors throughout, tall ceilings, big rooms, an extra-wide-wrap around front porch, plus charm and character at every turn! Upstairs are three spacious bedrooms (one is big enough to make it into two separate rooms), including the huge primary suite, two full baths, and more hardwood floors! One of the bedrooms walks out to a private second story patio/deck! On the main level there's room for everyone, and even more room in the spacious chef's kitchen, which features stainless appliances, a large island, separate pantry, and big table space. The formal dining room, with one of two wood burning fireplaces, could easily serve as a professional office. You'll love the family room with it's own fireplace, more hardwoods, and floor-to-ceiling windows. The fourth bedroom/office and full bath are right next to each other on this level, too! Finally, the Florida room, a staple of farmhouse living, is off the back of the house and will be your big screen room, dedicated playroom, or a private space for reading and a chance to soak up nature. The stone patio off the Florida room is the perfect spot for grilling and/or entertaining! Two large outbuildings, one of which could easily serve as a craft room and the other a garden shed, offer major storage space. All the hard work has been done here---recent two-zone HVAC replacement, new windows, metal and shingle roofs replaced, exterior of the home repainted---even the fireplaces have been serviced! Walk to the best of Poolesville---top-rated Poolesville High School, Poolesville Elementary School, our community pool/splashpark, and downtown restaurants/shopping! The best coffee shop in the region, Locals, is two doors down! NO HOA or Front Foot Fees! Work from home with ultra high-speed FIOs or enjoy the short drive to 3 different MARC trains as well as Rockville, Gaithersburg, DC, Leesburg, and Frederick! Come join the fun in the best small town and award-winning school cluster in Maryland----Poolesville! Listing agent will always be available to answer any questions and will be happy to show your pre-qualified clients the property for you.
