The Historic Shildt House (c.1892) – Timeless Victorian Elegance in Taneytown. Step into a piece of Taneytown history with the Historic Shildt House, originally home to the town’s blacksmith, James Shildt - whose craftsmanship and legacy still echo through this remarkable property. This late-Victorian treasure showcases classic architectural details, including a graceful turret, front porch, and ornate millwork that speak to the artistry of its era. Inside, you’ll find 4 spacious bedrooms, 9-foot ceilings, and a thoughtful floor plan featuring dual staircases and two fireplaces, blending historic character with modern comfort. The primary suite offers a private bath, while the spacious kitchen impresses with stainless steel appliances and abundant cabinetry and butler pantry — the perfect gathering place for family and friends. Throughout the home, original wood floors and replacement windows create a seamless balance between preservation and practicality. Outdoors, the charm continues with a fenced, landscaped backyard featuring tiered gardens, a two-story barn, and a beautifully restored two-story summer kitchen — now converted into an office or creative studio, complete with a fireplace. Located in the heart of the Taneytown Historic District, the Shildt House is more than a home — it’s a living piece of Maryland’s history, lovingly maintained and ready for its next chapter.
