Ranch/Rambler

Rare elevated 1/3rd+ acre protected riparian waterfront with 100+ feet of shoreline and a deep water multi-slip pier. Amazing waterfront renovation/expansion opportunity in the heart of Edgewater. 25+ foot elevated bluff-top riverside home with panoramic water-views, bay breezes and convenient stairs down the bank to your private waterfront with 112 feet of sand-bottom shoreline, a private 6 foot wide x 65 foot long deep-water pier (with stunning sunrises and sunsets), capped by a generous 240 square foot swimming/sunning/dining platform and 3 slips including an electric boatlift that can comfortably accommodate a 26+ foot boat. Public sewer, R-5 zoning and an IDA critical area designation allow for a broad range of expansion options (including vertically up to 35 feet high) for this sturdy light-filled 3-bedroom rancher with an existing 1500+ square foot footprint and allow you to construct your forever dream home (however big or small). Similarly, the elevated level ground between the existing home and the top of the riverbank will allow for expansive multi-tiered decking to capture still more of those stellar views and steady breezes. Just a short 1/3rd mile paddle, sail or motor down peaceful and protected Warehouse Creek and across Shelter Bay to the mighty South River for fine waterfront dining or a crab feast in Edgewater, or to begin a short trip to Annapolis or a more ambitious excursion to Chesapeake Bay ports of call beyond. The horseshoe shaped driveway off your dead-end street comfortably accommodates up to 5 cars for when friends and family come to visit by land. South River Park is a special tax district and active community with a clubhouse (available for resident rental) and outstanding waterfront amenities including a lovely, large grassy riverside park, a swimming beach, 2 community piers, and a limited access resident-only boat launch. Ideal commuter location 45 minutes from DC (via Routes 2 and 50, Routes 2 and 214, or Routes 2, 214, 424 and 50) and Baltimore (via Routes 2, 50 and 97) and just minutes to Historic Annapolis.
