About 15 minutes west of Frederick in the historic district of Middletown, this five-bedroom, four-full-bath and two-half-bath Victorian home just hit the market for $775,000. Featuring a colorful facade (in keeping with the “painted lady” style), and signature Victorian turrets, decorative wood trim, a front porch, and a formal brick walkway leading to the front door, the property’s exterior is striking.

Inside, the home features historic elements including characteristically tall ceilings, original hardwood flooring, pocket doors, and millwork. The main floor features an updated kitchen with a butler’s pantry and a wine fridge; distinct living and dining areas; plus a newer sunroom. On the second floor there are three bedrooms and three bathrooms, and on the third floor, two additional bedrooms and one more full bath. In the basement, there’s a workout space, laundry, and a half bathroom. The backyard includes a pool, and six-person hot tub, and a fenced-in garden area. There’s also a three car-garage. The listing agent is Denise Briggs of Redfin, and the address is 216 E Main Street, Middletown. You can check it out in person at this weekend’s open house, happening Sunday, May 3, from 1 to 3 PM.
