Property Description
This remarkable home is a contributing building in the Sharpsburg Historic District on the National Register of Historic Places. Built circa 1860, the vernacular log house stands two stories with a four-bay facade, asbestos shingles over German siding and log, a side-gable roof, twin front doors with three-light transoms, and a porch with turned posts and scroll-cut brackets. Outbuildings include a frame garage and a rare exposed-log outbuilding with a brick chimney. It sits on original town Lot 34, first sold in 1772; a house here was documented in an 1881 will, and local recollection credits John Hill with building and owning it during the Civil War. Its story belongs to Sharpsburg's 1763–1958 historic period—including the Battle of Antietam in September 1862.
Welcome to 112 S. Mechanic Street, where historic character meets modern comfort. This charming 3-bedroom, 2-full-bath home blends rustic beauty with thoughtful updates in picturesque Sharpsburg, Maryland.
Distinctive log-and-chinking craftsmanship gives the home its warm, inviting feel and celebrates its connection to the past. The kitchen features vintage steel cabinetry and countertops with a newer stove and microwave, plus a main-level laundry room and dedicated mudroom for everyday living.
Lovingly improved since 2017, upgrades include updated electrical, a new roof (2020), replacement windows, added insulation, new front storm doors, a newer oil boiler, a brand new chimney liner for the oil furnace, and a newer hot water heater. Two mini-split units installed in 2025 add year-round comfort on both levels. Interiors include a new upper-level bath, an updated main-level bath, renovations throughout, and a cellar dehumidifier.
Off-street parking and small-town living put Antietam National Battlefield, the C&O Canal, and Shepherdstown's shops and dining close at hand. Old-world character, modern convenience—experience the charm of yesterday and the comforts of today.
