Listing details

Step back in time while enjoying modern potential in this charming 1911 farmhouse located right in the heart of Mardela Springs. Set on a rare, nearly ½-acre in-town lot, this property offers space, character, and opportunity that’s hard to find. The 1,800 sq ft home features 3 nicely sized bedrooms and 1.5 bathrooms, with the half bath large enough to be converted back into a full bath—it previously housed a tub. The main living room showcases exposed beams and a pellet stove that efficiently heats the home, creating a warm and inviting centerpiece. Upstairs you’ll find all three bedrooms, and beyond that, a finished third floor offers excellent bonus space. While the third floor does not currently have HVAC, adding it would create an ideal bonus room, office, or additional living area. Outside, the property truly shines with a huge detached 2-car garage featuring a finished and insulated upper level—perfect for a workshop, studio, hobby space, or future conversion. Both the house and garage roofs were replaced just 3 years ago, offering peace of mind. The home previously had central HVAC; the air handlers and ductwork remain, with only the exterior units removed, making future reinstall more straightforward. The home relies on electric baseboard heaters and the pellet stove for heat. Relax on the large front porch overlooking Main Street, a perfect spot to enjoy small-town charm. With its lot size, updates, and flexible layout, this farmhouse offers a rare combination of historic character and future potential right in town.
