This beautifully restored brick historic home sits in the center of Clear Spring Maryland surrounded by extensive gardens and mountain views. The gardens offer a variety of fruit trees, raised gardens for planting and flower/herb gardens. The rear yard offers a large patio overlooking the gardens and yard with plenty of shade from the old growth trees.
