About This Home
Welcome to “Pier Joy” – Your SUNSATIONAL Waterfront Retreat! Turn-key, AVAILABLE FULLY FURNISHED ($5000) or UNFURNISHED ($4,000/month) — just bring your personal belongings and settle in! This stunning 3-bedroom, 2.5-bath on trend home is perfectly appointed with contemporary furnishings, linens, utensils, and some utilities included. Formerly a popular Airbnb, everyone RAVES about their stay in this sun-filled, HAPPY home!
Step inside to an open-concept floor plan drenched in natural light and gleaming hardwood floors. The large chef’s kitchen features stainless steel appliances, tons of cabinets and counter space, a large island/breakfast bar, cook-top, double ovens, plate racks, and pantry! The stylish primary suite is a true retreat, boasting a spa-like bath with WOW, oversized walk-in shower and deep soaking tub with water views, plus a dream walk-in closet w/custom built-ins! Two other generous-sized bedrooms on upper level, one with stackable washer/dryer and drop-down ironing board in closet.
Enjoy the INCREDIBLE attached sunroom, with cathedral ceiling and 3 walls of windows with WATER views -- perfect for quiet mornings or a work-from-home office/hang-out space. Relax on the expansive covered back patio as the sun sets over the water, or retreat indoors to on-trend decor and spacious comfort throughout.
Nestled in the charming waterfront town of Shady Side, you’ll experience the true Chesapeake Bay lifestyle — from fishing, kayaking, paddle boarding, or boating right off your pier, to soaking in daily sunrises and sunsets. Stroll or cruise over to local favorites like Pirates Cove, Stan & Joe's, Jesse Jay’s Latin Inspired Kitchen, and Skipper’s Pier, where you’ll find fresh seafood, dockside dining, and live music. Memberships available to Chesapeake Yacht Club, less than a mile walk! Enjoy weekend farmer’s markets, small-town festivals, or take a short drive into Annapolis for shopping, history, and nightlife. With Edgewater nearby and Washington, D.C. just 40 minutes away — and Northern Virginia about 50 minutes — you’ll have the perfect blend of peaceful retreat and easy access to everything you need. You'll LOVE the neighborhood -- how do i know? I live, work and play here! (Owner/agent)
Pier Joy isn’t just a rental home — it’s a lifestyle. Make it yours!
