Old and new bayside single-family homes
Houses are set back from the street on broad, spacious properties bordered by tall trees. Some areas are home to custom-built modern farmhouses built in tandem with their neighbors as part of a local development, and others have older houses constructed separately. Older houses are often bungalow and ranch styles. Houses here range in price from $350,000 to $750,000, depending on the house’s build year and size. Most houses that are part of a recent development are priced between $700,000 and $750,000. “The Western Shores area, including Port Republic, is one of many desired Chesapeake Bay beach communities on the western shore of Maryland,” says Gail Siegal, a realtor with O’Brien Realty at the Solomons office in nearby Solomons, Maryland. “This area has beautiful views of the Chesapeake Bay and is commuter-friendly for people from Washington, D.C.”

This free-to-the-public park offers guided canoe trips along Parkers Creek, plenty of trails for hiking and opportunities to volunteer in their regenerative farming program that benefits local food pantries. There’s also Battle Creek Cypress Swamp Sanctuary, a park featuring a wetland boardwalk, birdwatching, interactive exhibits and a picnic area. This property was acquired by The Nature Conservancy in 1957 and is a protected home to many species of plants and animals.
