Welcome to 48 Fairground Ave in charming Taneytown — a spacious rancher offering nearly 3,000 square feet of living space, including the finished basement. This 3-bedroom, 1-bath home blends classic character with major system upgrades, featuring generously sized bedrooms, hardwood flooring, fresh paint throughout much of the home, and a bright, functional layout designed for comfortable main-level living. The refreshed kitchen features recently painted vibrant cabinetry and opens to a versatile flex/seasonal room perfect for a sunroom, office, playroom, or entertaining space (previously believed to have been a garage that may offer conversion potential). Upstairs, the large third bedroom provides excellent flexibility filled with natural light. The finished lower level adds substantial additional living space, along with a dedicated laundry/storage area and French drain system. Major updates completed in recent years (2023) include a new HVAC system with added upper-level ductwork, conversion from oil to electric heat, updated electrical panel and wiring, full water main replacement, all-new PVC interior plumbing lines, and radon mitigation system. Other updates in the last 2 years include: new water heater, oven, washing machine, utility sink, refinished tub surround, and replacement storm doors to the deck. Roof replaced around 2013. Situated on a quarter-acre lot, the property also offers a large 12x27 deck, flat and spacious fenced backyard, along with a storage shed which has been partially converted into a chicken coop, raised bed garden spaces and a producing fig tree. There is also driveway parking, ample street parking and refreshed landscaping with a beautiful perennial garden in the front. Conveniently located near Frederick, Westminster, and PA, this move-in ready home is within walking distance to shopping, dining, grocery stores, a park, and an elementary school — offering the perfect blend of space, comfort, and value.
