The living room also includes a fireplace that adds to the cozy and inviting atmosphere. There is also a billiard room with an 8’ pool table and second fireplace.

The outdoor space of this house is truly spectacular, offering guests the opportunity to fully immerse themselves in nature. Enjoy your morning coffee or evening cocktails on the large screened porch that overlooks the Little Choptank River. Take a walk through the 7 acres of gorgeous loblolly pine, or launch a kayak from the private dock for a peaceful paddle on the river. This property also offers a fire pit, perfect for roasting marshmallows and stargazing on clear nights.

Located in the famed Neck District, the property is just a short, 10-minute drive to downtown Cambridge, or to Blackwater National Wildlife Refuge, or to Harriet Tubman Underground RailRoad Center.

The property and nearby Blackwater are a birder’s paradise, offering a rich diversity of avian species. You can spot the majestic bald eagle, the colorful wood duck, and the iconic American oystercatcher. The marshes and tidal creeks are also home to a variety of shorebirds, such as the black-necked stilt, the snowy egret, and the glossy ibis. During the fall and winter months, you can see migratory waterfowl, including the northern pintail, the green-winged teal, and the canvasback duck.

Bring your kayak, canoe, or paddleboard and launch right behind the house. Or use the house as a jumping off point to put-ins near Blackwater on Rt 335, public boat ramps on Smithville Road, Taylors Island, Shorters Wharf and Hoopers Island.
