Description
Perfect opportunity to build your dream home or private escape in a serene, wooded site! Peaceful 21.5 acres of Raw land with a rolling topography with elevation ranges from 1,470 to 1,670 feet above sea level. Smithsburg is about 25 minutes to downtown Frederick which is a vibrant city filled with exquisite shops, restaurants and lively entertainment & cultural events all year long! The property is also in close proximity to Cunningham Falls State Park and Catoctin Mountain Park filled with endless hiking trails and recreation! There is an easement through the property with Potomac Edison. The land is also part of a conservation easement held by the Maryland Environmental Trust preserving its natural beauty. Tax Records show address as Tower Road however, the road frontage is on Old Catoctin Road. Two potential homesites have been identified by using topography and soil maps. The southeastern corner of the property appears to be the best location as it has adequate access to Old Catoctin Rd, unrestricted soils and is farthest away from the power line easement. The second location is in the northwestern corner of the property. Access would be off the panhandle from Old Catoctin Rd. This location also has unrestricted soils however, is closer in proximity to the power line easement. RC Zoning The RC zone encourages and supports agricultural activities.

5/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageCatoctin has been incredibly...average. Some teachers are really wonderful (the best teachers usually end up leaving) and some are really awful. If you have the means to send your children somewhere else, do it. The arts are extremely underfunded, the athletic director favors male sports, and the administrators are not as effective as they should be.Student Review7y ago - Thurmont Elementary School

4/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageThere are a lot of kids who are very unkind. The staff members are very nice and understanding though. The school is big, it is a 2 story building. I love this school because there are so many great teachers and so many good electives to choose from. The teachers at this school try to make learning fun by making games for review or making songs to help us remember vocab. The staff at this school are amazing. Some of the students in this school are unkind. I come home and as I am doing my homework (we get a lot of homework) I reflect on my day, sometimes I start crying, sometimes I scream, and sometimes I just try to ignore it. The students at this school have so much drama. This is a good school but make sure you get the right friend group and be careful who you mess with.Student Review4y ago - Thurmont Primary School

NAGreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageWhile this school is nice and clean, I will not recommend this school to anyone. The principal and staff doesn’t know how to handle bullying and they don’t report anything to parents when something happens at school. So parents please do your research.Parent Review7y ago
