Property Description

Locust Grove Farm is a classic 18th century waterfront property, centrally and conveniently positioned between Trappe, Easton, Oxford and Cambridge. Originally built in 1783, the house has been featured in many historical collections over the years. Most notable is Where Land and Water Intertwine, a book that has a complete collection of the historic and significant homes of Talbot County. This home was thoroughly renovated in 1987, bringing it into the modern era while maintaining the history and charm of an earlier time. Located at the end of a half-mile driveway, the property is completely surrounded by land that can never be developed and its idyllic setting offers the rare combination of space, privacy, tranquility, and functionality. At almost 22 acres, this operating and turn-key horse farm, in an equine neighborhood, offers five pastures, a three-stall barn with a beautiful tack room, and a protected riding ring. Four acres of woodland and 800’ +/- feet of water frontage provide self-managed habitat for the year-round abundant and varied wildlife. Together with gorgeous views of the upper reaches of Island Creek and gentle rolling topography, this setting is a rare find on the Eastern Shore. The home features three bedrooms and two full bathrooms, with a beautiful kitchen and family area, a spacious living room, a formal dining room, four fireplaces, and some original hardwood floors. It evokes the best of the charm and style of Eastern Shore living. The outdoor spaces overlooking Island Creek and an expansive ‘front’ yard, including a large patio, garden walkways, and a raised deck, run the length of the house and the two access points at either end provide a beautiful circular pattern for gracious entertaining. Further complementing this truly special setting are the ‘groves’ of beautiful mature trees and well established gardens, including a fenced vegetable garden with raised beds. There is plenty of space to expand, and plans and a perc to do so, and room for a pool.
