About This Home
As of May 2026Wake up to sweeping water views and the peaceful rhythm of life on the Gunpowder River in this exceptional end-of-group townhouse. Thoughtfully expanded with a stunning two-story addition, this home blends waterfront serenity with spacious, modern living. A central foyer welcomes you in, with a powder room nearby for added convenience. The main level boasts a practical layout designed for both comfort and connection. The sunny kitchen opens to the formal dining room and creates a natural hub for gatherings. The formal living room flows seamlessly into a light-filled sunroom addition where tranquil water views become part of your everyday backdrop. Upstairs, the primary suite serves as a true retreat, featuring a spacious bedroom with vaulted ceilings, an adjoining sitting room, and a newly renovated bathroom. Enjoy your morning coffee while watching the sunrise over the water from your private deck! Two additional bedrooms and a cozy finished loft share a well-appointed hall bath. This prime waterfront setting on the Gunpowder River is complemented by exceptional outdoor entertaining spaces and all the essentials for the waterfront lifestyle, including a private pier, two boat slips, a boat lift, and a personal watercraft hoist. Host gatherings or unwind on the rear deck as you take in the stunning setting. Enjoy boating, paddleboarding, kayaking, tubing, crabbing, fishing, and swimming just steps from your back door. Two well-equipped sheds and an under-deck enclosure provide ample storage for all your gear. Move right into this freshly painted home with new carpet and updated light fixtures, plus added peace of mind with recent mechanical updates, including a water heater (2023), HVAC (2022), and roof (2015). An easy commute to Baltimore work centers, shopping, restaurants, marinas, and a short trip by water to the Chesapeake Bay.
