Property Description

Second chance! Buyers got cold feet. Bring your old home enthusiasts who understand owning an old home! Offered for the first time in over 20 years, the historic Captain Ordeman house is for sale. This historic property was proudly owned by "The Captain". Said to be "a highly respected, honorable and handsome gentleman, loved by everybody". Own a piece of Frederick history in this beautifully appointed home set on 1 acre with woods, and a rolling front yard, overlooked by a storybook front porch. This stunning stone home is a classic piece of early Maryland Quaker architecture. The double front doors were originally used as separate entrances for men and women, however now welcomes all who cross its threshold. The foyer entry could serve several purposes or uses for its new owners. Den/Foyer/Office/Library. The front parlor off of the entry is focused on the wood burning fireplace and would be a spectacular sitting/living room. This original part of the home has classic Quaker understated wood features. The thoughtfully blended addition adds a kitchen and dining room. The kitchen has views to the front yard, wood counters, and a nod to the house's historic charm. The dining area has a slider to the side porch/screened in porch to enjoy the scenic views of this property from all angles. The main level also features a large room that could be used as a main level bedroom or a den, office, etc. The bathroom on this level is a full bath. This multi-functional bath can serve as a bathroom for guests and accompany the main level bedroom to offer 100% main level living. Also in the addition, you will find a large storage area that can be used as a pantry, mudroom, or just storage. Laundry is also on the main level for supreme convenience. Head up the wide staircase in the addition part of the home and find an upper level sitting area with high ceilings and beautiful windows allowing natural light to stream in. The upper level of this home offers four bedrooms. For a historic home, "The Captain" offers a shocking amount of closet space and generous sized rooms. Unique to the upper level are built-in book shelves in the hallway and a full storage closet. The smallest bedroom has access to the attic to use however you imagine the space. The upper level full bath has a soaking tub and a lovely update. With no official historic designation, there is no limit to what you can do with this home. Last but certainly not least, don't forget to look at the shop at the end of the driveway. Electric has been run to it, but is currently not hooked up. With a concrete floor, this is a perfect spot for tinkering, woodworking, or storage. This home is truly special, with historic value and livability around every corner. Its historical significance is undeniable and a true find for anyone who admires and respects an older home. Own a piece of Frederick's history with "The Captain".
