Versatile 166-Acre Property with Prime Access to I-68 and U.S. Route 219
Located at the strategic junction of I-68 and U.S. Route 219, this approximately 166-acre property offers a rare combination of size, accessibility, and development potential. Currently operating as a working farm, the land includes roughly 110 acres of tillable fields, 44 wooded acres, and an established pond with a small cabin—ideal for recreational use or future enhancement.
The property sits directly along the eastbound on-ramp to I-68, offering exceptional visibility and access. With public water nearby and the high-traffic corridor to Deep Creek Lake and Wisp Resort just minutes away, this site is ideally positioned for a wide range of commercial uses. Potential options include a truck stop, retail or service center, hospitality venues, or a mixed-use development. Approximately 8 acres are currently leased to a concrete barrier company, providing income and potential for industrial use in a designated section of the property.
The property features seven distinct structures that add versatility and value, including a comfortable main residence, a historic 1800s farmhouse ideal for restoration or hardwood reclamation, and a large traditional barn with a full loft and stalls suited for livestock, storage, or events. Supporting agricultural and mechanical operations are a fully equipped machine shop, a spacious farm equipment garage, and a modern 40' x 100' metal building with a hydraulic crane lift, concrete floor, and high ceilings for industrial use. Rounding out the amenities is a charming cabin by the pond, perfect for recreation, weekend retreats, or rental potential.
Whether maintained as a productive agricultural operation, developed into a commercial hub, or configured for a blend of both, this property offers a strong foundation in a high-growth corridor. Recreational appeal, proximity to key destinations, and diverse infrastructure make this an uncommon investment opportunity.
