About This Home

As of June 2021

Adult summer camp!! That's what you'll find in Scientist's Cliffs... whether it's a year-round lifestyle, or what you get to look forward to on weekends and during the summer, you will be delighted by the slow pace of life this home will provide! Enjoy the charm of this log cabin from the rustic fireplace, to the beamed ceilings and breezy sunroom, to the peekaboo bay views... Scientists Cliffs is more than a neighborhood - it's a community that features a pool, tennis courts, shared garden, community center, beach access, boat ramp, ball fields, a summer camp for kids, and a multitude of year-round events. Steps away from 2 miles of fossil-filled Chesapeake beaches. This charming log home features an open floor plan two bedrooms, a loft or 3rd bedroom area, and two baths. Partially finished downstairs has a full bath already with enough room for a future family room or additional ground-level bedroom. The main bedroom features an office area or a future walk-in closet. Year-round owners enjoy quick access to PAX NAS, DC, Annapolis, and beyond, and seasonal residents escape the Beltway & Bay Bridge bustle and make it to their second home in time for happy hour! Here exists a thriving sense of community rarely found anymore. Come see for yourself! This home is located in Gate A and has the drive-up beach and the boat ramp. A very short walk and you will be at the Community Center, Pool, tennis courts, basketball hoops, community gardens, and storage lot for boats, jet skis, and RVs. •
