Thurmont, MD 21788

Welcome to "The Mackley House" circa 1818-1820 (Est.), this stately home offers two units, one of which is currently rented for $800 per month. This is one of the oldest homes in Thurmont and offers a very rich history. Originally built by Jacob Weller B.S. for he and his second wife Mary Love, Jacob is credited with the manufacture of the first friction matches which he worked on in "The Match House" just to the east of the home. The home is currently a duplex with the main house offering three bedrooms, a nursery/office and one and one half baths, a proper foyer with beautiful staircase, front parlor, dining room, kitchen and den. Gorgeous wide plank hardwood floors in the upper level, lots of original architecture, an expansive walk up attic and large walk-out basement with laundry hook up. The second unit offers two bedrooms and one full bath (recently updated) with a living room with updated flooring, eat-in kitchen and laundry. The home has had many updates over the years including a new roof (2008) and replacement windows. Both units have separate electric, water/sewer and oil heat. Situated on .21 of an acre the spacious rear yard offers a shed, three bay garage and two parking spaces. This unique property is a rare find and has not been available on the market for 70 years.
