Tucked behind rolling tillable fields in Silver Spring Township, this 80.14-acre farm is the kind of place that stops you mid-sentence. Two parcels. Two entrances — one off W Trindle Road, one off North Locust Point Road. Eighty acres of some of the highest-producing soils in Cumberland County, currently under a $10,000 annual tillable lease that puts money back in your pocket while the land does what it was always meant to do.
The farmhouse dates to 1860 but has been meticulously restored. Not renovated, not remodeled, but restored. Designed into an extensively thought-out vision that honors every original detail while bringing the home to modern standards. Original hardwood floors. Exposed chestnut log walls. Hand-hewn ceiling beams. A stone walk-in fireplace that anchors the main level. And every system behind those walls is brand new — plumbing, electric, HVAC, windows — all brought to current building codes without sacrificing a single ounce of character.
The kitchen alone will take your breath away. Solid cherry custom cabinetry. A Wolf range. Sub-Zero refrigerator and freezer. An imported farmhouse sink. Custom hardware crafted by artisans in Lancaster County and Massachusetts. Built-in appliances. Amish-built details throughout. Butler's pantry. Gourmet island. This is not a kitchen — it is a statement.
Three bedrooms. Three bathrooms. 2,649 square feet across two stories with a partially finished basement, interior and exterior access, and a stone foundation that has held this home for over 160 years. Highly desired and a stand to test and time, James Hardie siding. A standing seam metal roof. Period-correct exterior detailing. Recessed lighting. Walk-in closets. Upper floor laundry. Central air. Every thoughtful upgrade you could ask for — already done.
Step outside and the views will hold you there. Sweeping, uninterrupted sightlines across manicured grounds, open fields, and a landscape that changes with every season. If you think of life when things were much simpler, this home has the porch and balcony to reminisce on.
The 1860 stone bank barn has been professionally repointed and stands as a centerpiece of this property — a working piece of history that most people only see in photographs in magazines.
This property is protected under a conservation easement as well as neighboring properties preserving the peaceful landscape for lifetimes to come. Through the Clean & Green Program, taxes remain low while the easement preserves its agricultural legacy while still allowing for a second home on a designated 2-acre building envelope.
Professional architectural renditions are available for buyers with a vision to expand the residence. A new well has been installed. Extensive hardscape, exterior lighting, patios, porches, and a stone driveway complete the setting. This home is beyond turn key, its the portal to life you've been awaiting.
Located in the Cumberland Valley School District, minutes from Carlisle and Mechanicsburg, with easy access to I-76, Baltimore, Washington D.C., and Philadelphia. Privacy and convenience — in the same sentence. Staple stores and restaurants are a stone throw away while you feel secluded in serenity of your own.
Properties like this don't come on the market often. They come along once and you either recognize it or you don't. Immaculate. Manicured. Private. Protected. Eighty acres of legacy farmland with world-class soils, a meticulously restored home with luxury upgrades and no expense spared, and a stone barn that has stood since before the Civil War.
This is not just a listing. This is your next chapter. Welcome to the best part of your story.
