Property description
A rare masterpiece of early Maryland heritage, the iconic Dr. Charles McGill House (c.1820) stands as a premier architectural landmark in the heart of the Jefferson Historic District. Presiding over an expansive, level 0.4-acre village lot, this commanding brick residence seamlessly bridges two centuries of American craftsmanship. It culminates in an extraordinary, living piece of history: an authentic, partially restored 1700s pioneer log tavern integrated right into the home’s grand rear wing..........Pass through the handsome entry facade to find a main residence that honors its Federal-era pedigree. Rare, wide-plank chestnut floors glow under generous natural light, while eight original decorative fireplaces provide striking architectural focal points throughout the versatile layout. Designed for modern flexibility, the expansive floor plan features an elegant second-story sun porch, a peaceful side porch, and a dedicated business suite with a separate entry. This suite can effortlessly serve as professional workspace or convert back to sprawling primary living quarters...........The crown jewel of the estate awaits just beyond the main hall. Step across the threshold into the stunning 1700s tavern addition, where massive exposed hand-hewn timbers, authentic chinking, and a monumental stone hearth transport you straight to Frederick County’s frontier origins. Once a welcoming shelter for early travelers along the historic turnpike, this atmospheric sanctuary now functions as a breathtaking grand keeping room, a world-class creative studio, or a primary luxury suite steeped in rich storytelling.............Equipped with flexible Village Center (VC) zoning, this landmark property offers an unrivaled live/work layout with high visibility along the Jefferson Pike corridor—perfect for an artisan studio, professional practice, or premium remote business. Enjoy a picturesque, small-town lifestyle just minutes from commuter routes and downtown Frederick. A true, once-in-a-generation opportunity to own and steward an unforgettable architectural treasure...........Dual-Era Architecture: Seamlessly pairs an elegant c.1820 Federal brick main house with an integrated, partially restored 1700s log tavern addition...........Historic Integrity: Showcases original wide-plank chestnut & oak flooring, historic trim work, and eight decorative brick fireplaces..............Live/Work Flexibility: Village Center (VC) zoning and distinct secondary entryways make it a turnkey setup for a boutique, professional office, or creative gallery...........Expansive Village Lot: Sitting on roughly 0.4 level acres, providing a lush, private outdoor escape right in the historic corridor............Premium Views & Spaces: Includes a classic side porch and a tranquil second-floor sun porch overlooking the historic streetscape.
