Welcome to The Hillside Bungalow in Short Gap. This classic home is defined by simplicity, efficiency, and cozy proportions. Fully renovated, the clean updates blend seamlessly with character that never goes out of style. Major improvements have already been handled, including a brand-new HVAC system—so what you feel here isn’t “project,” it’s possibility. Located just minutes from ABL at Rocket Center and centrally positioned between Cumberland, MD; Keyser, WV; and Romney, WV, everyday conveniences and amenities are no more than a 30-minute drive in any direction. Set slightly above the road, the home immediately draws you in with its simple front porch—quietly inviting you to slow down and stay awhile. Inside, a functional layout offers main-level living with no wasted space, including the kitchen, living room, bedroom, and full bath. Upstairs, two additional bedrooms provide flexibility for guests, work, or whatever comes next. The basement offers garage access and practical storage, keeping day-to-day utility neatly tucked out of sight. Compact, efficient, and thoughtfully refreshed, this is a home that lives simply—and lives well. This will not last long = schedule your private showing today.
