Property Description
Snyders Hollow Estate is an exquisitely restored country home on 24 park-like acres close to golf courses, skiing & Gettysburg Battlefields. The property is 2 miles from the historic Monterey Country Club, directly on the 1863 Civil War Retreat path, and abuts Michaux State Forest. It features a stocked spring-fed fish pond, a professional 100 yard rifle range, and a newly constructed pristine deer stand facing into Michaux State Forrest. The Camp is best described as a first class retreat property. It was previously owned by a prominent local industrialist as his hunting base for international customers. The current owners have conserved the property for ten years, and it is time to pass it on to the next keeper. The property is ultra private, centered within 24 acres of mature forest, and truly special. A private setting with fenced paddock and an abundance of wildlife and natural beauty, this is an extraordinary property for horse riding, hiking and retreat activities of all kinds. Featuring a large patio with fireplace- smoker combination and an adjacent enclosed 4 season heated porch for indoor/outdoor living, 4 spacious bedrooms (2 master suites), a cozy family room fireplace and tremendous charm, this is a home of rare and beautiful distinction, nestled in beautiful South Mountain (part of the Appalachian Mountains) close to Washington, DC & Baltimore, yet a world away......ABOUT SNYDERS HOLLOW ESTATE - This is a private home located near Gettysburg Battlefield and Ski Liberty, approximately 1.5 hours from Washington, DC and Baltimore. The property consists of nearly 24 acres (an additional adjacent 1.3 acre lot with well is available for purchase) and adjoins the 85,500 acres of veritable wilderness in Michaux State Forest. It is located in historic Snyder s Hollow and was remodeled by a renowned industrialist as a personal woodland retreat in the 1980 s. A second extensive renovation was completed in 2009 by the current owner. The decor throughout the home is upscale camp and showcases beautiful naturescapes from every window. The owner renovated the home as a classic deer camp, but with a green twist - strict native fauna conservation has been implemented for the past 10 years. His vision was to make the land as hospitable as possible to all animals (deer, turkey, guineas, rabbits and incredible birds) that roam the land and inhabit its ponds, streams and forest.....SOME OF THE MANY AMENITIES 2 master suites and 2 double bedrooms 2 porches (one enclosed and heated) Large massage/dressing room Office with laundry area Beautiful, historically inspired kitchen with an original wood burning stove and a pristine spring water source Large gracious dining room Living room/billiards room Climate controlled detached 2 car garage, with an upper entertainment area and observation deck (remodeled in 2016) Approximately 24 private acres, with an additional 1.3 adjoining acres available for purchase Spring-fed stocked pond (catch and release only for the past 10 years) Hiking trails and horse paddock Deer stand on border with Michaux State Forest (observation only) 100 yard rifle range with formidable backstop A full complement of wildlife Substantial acreage may qualify for timber harvesting, or like-kind 1031 exchange opportunityPOTENTIAL USES Private Estate Retreat Hunting Lodge Bed & Breakfast 1031 Exchange for Timbered Land
