This 1800s chestnut barn is a classic example of historic American barn construction. Its sturdy 32x48 foot frame showcases hand-hewn chestnut timbers and a traditional gable roof. Built to last, the barn has stood the test of time and offers a solid foundation for a new chapter.
Chestnut is a prized wood known for its strength, durability, and natural beauty. However, a devastating blight nearly wiped out the American chestnut tree in the early 20th century, making this all-chestnut barn rare.
Located in Hampstead, Maryland, the barn is rooted in the region’s agricultural history. This area was once a hub for farmers, and the barn likely played a crucial role in the local economy. Today, it presents a unique opportunity to own a piece of that heritage.
With its strong bones and versatile layout, this barn is ready for a makeover. Whether you dream of a cozy home, a creative workspace, or a unique event venue, this structure can be adapted to fit your vision.
