Pier Pleasure
About
This private waterfront river home in beautiful historic Chestertown has its own private pier and pool - all on a quiet cul de sac. Enjoy the view from the river porch of the Eastern Shore sunset over glassy water, pick some Maryland Blue Crabs caught off the pier, and enjoy the light show at night with no winds to disturb the water surface.
When summer is over, the home is a great place to stay during the hunting season. The landscape combined with the excellent game makes for one of the best hunting regions in the Northeast. The season begins in mid September and lasts through December.
When the owners bought the property, it had been run as a fishing/crabbing camp for decades with small boats for rent, cabins and a mini-store. You still get the feeling you are at summer camp in this quiet retreat away from it all. If you see a small boat slowly moving across the river in front of you, stopping every 50 feet or so and picking up a float, then doing a wild hand over hand dance with a thin rope, that is probably a crabber with small traps.
This house is less than 5 minutes from the quaint Main Street of Chestertown. The town dates back to the Revolution - in response to British Parliament’s closing of the port of Boston, the citizens of Chestertown, Maryland met in May 1774 and set forth “Resolves” forbidding importing, selling, or consuming of tea in Chestertown. The City re-enacts this event every year during the annual tossing Chestertown Tea Party Festival. If you consider yourself a foodie, you should spend your day touring one of the local farms or vineyards and then enjoy a meal at one of the many local restaurants.
This home has a total of 5 Bedrooms and 4.5 Baths. There is Master en-suite bedroom on the Main Floor, 3 bedrooms and a combined Den/bedroom and full bath upstairs, and a recreation/bedroom space on the lower level complete with a pool table and a full bath. Both the main floor and upstairs each have oversized sun porches with views of the Bay.
There is ample parking on the driveway for 3-4 cars on the driveway.
