Property Description

Welcome to 48 Fairground Ave in charming Taneytown — a spacious rancher offering nearly 3,000 square feet of living space, including the finished basement. This 3-bedroom, 1-bath home blends classic character with major system upgrades, featuring generously sized bedrooms, hardwood flooring, fresh paint throughout much of the home, and a bright, functional layout designed for comfortable main-level living. The refreshed kitchen features recently painted vibrant cabinetry and opens to a versatile flex/seasonal room perfect for a sunroom, office, playroom, or entertaining space (previously believed to have been a carport or garage or that may offer conversion potential). Upstairs, the large third bedroom provides excellent flexibility filled with natural light. The finished lower level adds substantial additional living space, along with a dedicated laundry/storage area and French drain system. Major updates completed in recent years (2023) include a new HVAC system with added upper-level ductwork, conversion from oil to electric heat, updated electrical panel and wiring, full water main replacement, all-new PVC interior plumbing lines, and radon mitigation system. Other updates in the last 2 years include: new water heater, oven, washing machine, utility sink, refinished tub surround, and replacement storm door to the deck. Roof replaced around 2013. Situated on a quarter-acre lot, the property also offers a large 12x27 deck, flat and spacious fenced backyard, along with a storage shed which has been partially converted into a chicken coop, raised bed garden spaces and a producing fig tree. There is also driveway parking, ample street parking and refreshed landscaping with a beautiful perennial garden in the front. Conveniently located near Frederick, Westminster, and PA, this move-in ready home is within walking distance to shopping, dining, grocery stores, a park, and an elementary school — offering the perfect blend of space, comfort, and value, plus peace of mind knowing the majority of the big ticket items have already been taken care of.
