About This Home

As of September 2023

EXTRAORDINARY. There is simply no other way to describe this property. Lovingly known as “Harvest Cove”, this amazing waterfront estate is unparalleled. Imagine owning your very own gated, private peninsula with multiple parcels combined to include over 3.3 well manicured acres that backs to state park land and offers over 1000ft of rip-rapped shoreline on a protected creek. The centerpiece of this incredible property is the 5000+ sq ft 5BR, 4.5BA Chalet style home with soaring ceilings, seven (yes, you read that correctly!) gas fireplaces, multi-level wraparound decks and a wall of windows that open up to expansive waterfront views and breathtaking sunsets. Be sure to view the drone video! Above the 2-car oversized attached garage is a complete studio guest/ in-law suite with separate entrance, kitchen, bath and brand new W/D. The first floor primary bedroom has a 4pc en-suite bath with jet tub and double sided fireplace. The open concept kitchen, dining and living area are filled with natural light. The second level includes two bedrooms, each with walk-in closets, fireplace and balcony access as well as the guest/in-law suite and spacious second living room overlooking the creek. The third floor includes a large loft style bonus room with fantastic views. Finally, the walkout lower level offers a rec room, an additional bedroom, full bath, tons of storage space as well as a custom built oak wet bar that would rival that of local establishments. Imagine the gatherings you could host! Also on the grounds is a 12x36 shed with two garage style doors. The second parcel is a contractor or small business owner’s dream as it contains an outbuilding with several rooms, two bathrooms and kitchen that may be suitable for office/gym/studio space as well as an attached massive 36x40ft garage with 16ft ceilings and 15ft high garage door – perfect for boat/RV or equipment storage. The last parcel includes an additional waterfront lot which seller says has the potential to build! For the boating enthusiast, there are TWO piers on the property. The largest is 150ft long, additional 30ft perpendicular section with ladder and picnic area, offers 6+ slips and has approx. 6.5ft water at the end. The second pier is approx 50ft with 20ft “L” section. North Point Creek leads into Old Road Bay and opens right out into the Patapsco and the Chesapeake Bay. Several nearby waterfront parks offer hiking and biking trails, swimming, and recreation areas. Spend your days fishing, crabbing, kayaking or simply enjoying your peaceful surroundings. Watch the Great Blue Heron, Bald Eagles and Osprey catch their meals right from your deck. Plenty of MD Blue Crabs and fish so you can catch your meals right from your dock! Easy cruise to Hart Miller Island, Inner Harbor, Rock Hall, Love Point, Annapolis or Kent Island. Minutes to 695, 95, Canton, Downtown, world class healthcare, and Tradepoint Atlantic. This home has INCREDIBLE Air BNB / Short term rental potential!! Not located in flood zone! Sliding glass doors on top two levels and several other exterior doors have been replaced. This property has been meticulously maintained. Property cannot be seen from the street. Agents-please read agent remarks regarding additional parcels. Showings by appointment only. Life does not get better than this. Come experience coastal small town living at its finest. Schedule your appointment and see for yourself. An opportunity such as this comes along once in a lifetime. Make this one of a kind, secluded waterfront oasis your own!
