195 JOHNSONS MILL Rd

This Dutch Colonial built in 1948, is a Better Homes & Garden design. The bones of this house are solid and reflect strong craftmanship. Located steps from the historic Berkeley Springs State Park gives the owner the option of walking to town for shopping and restaurants or to the high school to catch a game under the Friday night lights. In the fall, you can stroll down to the Apple Butter Festival and have easy front row seats to the parade and coveted access to the festival without the worry of parking or traffic. The quaint surrounding neighborhood allows for quiet streets to walk the dog or to let the kids ride their bikes.

Four large bedrooms and three floors of living allows for lots of customizable living space. The walk out basement has ample storage, room for an in-law suite and a full bathroom. A large laundry space has a convenient laundry chute from the third floor. The main living space has a large, bright and airy living room with a fireplace. The dining room has a matching bay window which looks out onto the mature rhododendrons and ancient oak trees. An updated kitchen with pantry boasts eight windows overlooking the side and back yards. Off the kitchen is a delightful screened in porch and deck giving access to the outside and a shady place to relax and grill.

The third floor offers four bedrooms with generous closets and a recently updated bathroom. The best surprise of the house is the treetop balcony which allows scenic views of the castle and downtown Bath. A sweet hidden spot to rest among the trees or stargaze.

The wooded lot is filled with nature’s gems. Towering oak trees which shade the house and yard in the summer, gorgeous young maple trees that turn golden in the fall, and fragrant dogwood trees that bloom pink in the spring; provide a bounty of birds and squirrels for your entertainment. This home is well loved and gives respite from the busy day to day.
