The Ultimate Secluded Waterfront Retreat! Privately positioned along the Choptank River, this 12.43 acre waterfront property is surrounded by mature trees, open sky, and abundant natural beauty. The mostly wooded landscape offers privacy and tranquility, creating a peaceful escape that feels worlds away yet remains connected to the charm of Maryland’s Eastern Shore. Outdoor amenities elevate the waterfront lifestyle. A private pier extends into the Choptank River, offering excellent fishing and direct water access. A stunning in-ground pool overlooks the river and is framed by multiple outdoor living spaces, including two decks - one accessed from the primary bedroom with tranquil water views and a welcoming front porch, perfectly positioned for observing deer, turkey, bald eagles, and other wildlife in their natural habitat. The property also features numerous garden areas, a detached workshop/shed, and a stream winding through the wooded acreage enhancing the sense of seclusion and natural charm. Wildlife is abundant, making this an exceptional property for hunters, nature lovers, or anyone seeking a peaceful waterfront setting. Move-in Ready - This lovingly cared for and well-maintained two-story home offers peace of mind with major updates already completed, including a new architectural shingle roof (2019), new HVAC system (2018), new garage doors (2020), and a new pool liner and cover (2022). The home features a main level with three bedrooms and two full bathrooms, complemented by a spacious open floor plan ideal for both everyday living and entertaining. The main level Primary Suite boasts new carpet, a spacious ensuite bath with a large walk-in shower, separate jetted tub, and French doors overlooking the river and leading to a private deck and pool area. A country-style kitchen anchors the home and flows seamlessly into the inviting family room, where a wood stove creates warmth and ambiance. A generously sized laundry room connects to the oversized attached garage, providing both function and convenience. Upstairs, a large finished bonus room, previously used as a private theater, offers flexible living space, while an additional finished room over the garage provides an ideal setting for a home office, studio, or guest retreat.
