About This Home

As of July 2025

Charming cottage on a large level lot with private backyard. Entering the home you immediately notice the refinished hardwood floors and sunny interior. The front room features a lot of windows and a wood stove. The living room is bright with two walls of windows to overlook the fenced yard and blooming crepe myrtles. Built-in cabinets offer extra storage. On the main level is the primary bedroom with walk-in closet and private screened porch leading to the backyard. The main level has a full bathroom and a second bedroom or office. Upstairs are two more bedrooms and a full bathroom with shower. Property offers a large, fenced yard & private driveway with plenty of space for off street parking. Steps from the Chesapeake Bay, the community of Fair Haven offers scenic views and a small community beach (off Clagett Ave). A short distance from Town Point Marina, Herrington Harbor Marinas, waterfront restaurants and destination towns like Chesapeake Beach and Galesville. An enviable location, which feels remote however it’s within 60 mins of Washington DC, 40 mins to Annapolis and close to major airports & Baltimore.
