About the Listing GRNT1 - 3250036

Nestled in the heart of historic Shepherdstown, 307 W German Street seamlessly blends timeless character with modern potential, offering a unique opportunity for those seeking a home rich in charm. The historic front presentation draws you in; but the rear, alley garden entrance is where you will fall in love with its flagstone pathways, stone benches, fountain, and vibrant pollinator garden. Immerse yourself in the home's vibrant, mature landscaping as you meander the stone paths. Once inside, you are greeted by a spacious, open floor plan integrating the kitchen, dining, and living areas. The recent addition of the generously sized, screened-in porch with infrared heaters and teak floors provides for multi-seasonal use well into the fall and cool early spring days. Follow along the numerous improvements during the sellers' tenure at this historic gem. From a front view, find hand-forged porch grab bar, house numbers, and historic shutter dogs on the windows. The long-traveled brick sidewalk was enhanced with underground drainage piping while the orginal bricks were leveled and lined with new landscaping. Just inside the front, hardwood floored entrance you are drawn into the heart of the home at the kitchen. Here you will find granite countertops, built-in shelving, large center island with farm sink, wrought iron cabinet pulls and a cork wall coffee station all pulled together with updated appliances. Crown molding was generously added throughout the kitchen, dining and living rooms. When not relaxing under the infrared heaters on the screened-in porch, snuggle up next to the pellet stove in the living room all while enjoying views of the vibrant backyard landscaping. On the second floor you will find two generously-sized bedrooms and a possible additional bedroom currently used as an office/family room. A private third floor bedroom is tucked away behind a beautiful 15-paned glass door. The bright, window-lined primary bedroom boasts an ensuite primary bathroom featuring a spacious walk-in shower with custom made windows, a historic vanity with raised sink and separate soaking tub. The closet-lined hall between the primary bedroom and bathroom includes the laundry area and features built-in shoe racks and new hardwood flooring throughout. Black-out shades and crown molding are featured throughout the second and third floors. Downtown parking woes are solved with the rear alley access to three parking spaces, including two covered spots behind the home’s matching potting shed. Interior storage options include an abundance of closets throughout, along with the unfinished basement and walk-up attic. Further improvements include an electric pump in the cistern to allow for convenient watering of gardens and dual heat/air pump (zoned for the first floor and second unit for the second and third floors). Whether you're looking to take a leisurely stroll on the 184.5 mile C & O Canal Towpath or enjoy nearby dining & entertainment options Shepherdstown is waiting to be explored. With its historic charm, community-focused lifestyle, and convenient location, this property is more than just a home; it's an invitation to be part of the oldest recorded town in West Virginia with easy access to neighboring Northern Virginia, Maryland and DC. Nearby Shepherd University offers a range of activities to the community including a Wellness Center, the Life Long Learning program, as well as athletic events, concerts, lectures and plays throughout the year. Living in Shepherdstown embraces a lifestyle filled with community and local charm where neighbors become friends and community events bring everyone together.
