Be a part of American history here at Avondale. Built in 1765, it is the oldest house in Carroll County and is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. You can own your view at Avondale, set on 30.9 acres of picturesque landscape. This historic gem offers 4 bedrooms, 2 full bathrooms, and 1 half bath. It features original 18th-century hardwood floors, eight cozy fireplaces, and a striking Palladian window above the entrance, exuding timeless elegance. As one of the few surviving examples of 18th-century Georgian architecture in Carroll County, Avondale is more than just a home—it’s a living piece of history. Thoughtfully updated for modern comfort, the home is now equipped with central HVAC while preserving its rich architectural character. A spacious two-story northwest wing extends the living space. At the rear of the house, the brick patio has been enclosed to create a beautiful sunroom—offering peaceful garden views and a quiet place to unwind. A quaint summer kitchen affectionately called “the pink house” adds historic charm and possible rental income. Outdoors, you'll find lush landscaped gardens filled with a vibrant variety of plants and flowers, an old iron quarry that has naturally turned into a tranquil pond, and even a charming meandering creek. It’s truly magical. The grounds also feature a barn with 2 garage bays, a pool, a poolhouse with a gazebo, an original smokehouse, and a charming summer kitchen complete with 1 bedroom and 1 bathroom—ideal for guests, extended family, or rental opportunities. You’ll also find chicken coops, a peacock pen, and a pig pen because sometimes our best friends have four legs or wings. Having previously operated as a Bed and Breakfast and wedding venue, the estate offers a stunning backdrop for gatherings and celebrations. Whether hosting unforgettable events or simply enjoying the tranquility of the land, Avondale is the perfect place to create beautiful, lasting memories.
