Waterfront cottage with sweeping Chesapeake Bay views. This 2-bedroom, 1-bath home has a bright, open layout and sits in a sought-after waterfront community with access to a private boat ramp and neighborhood beach for a small annual fee. The home has been updated with a new roof (within the past 5 years), newer windows, some lighting, bamboo flooring, electric heat and appliances. Septic was pumped within the last six months and the home is on public water. Currently a minimalist's dream from another perspective there's a real opportunity here: the homeowner has already spoken with the county and adding a second story is allowed, with the ability to extend the footprint approximately 10–12 feet (buyers should verify specifics directly with the county). A pier permit or L-shaped pier option extending roughly 50 feet is also possible. Whether you’re looking for a move-in ready waterfront getaway or a property to expand and make your own, this is a rare chance to own directly on the Bay and create something truly special. **** BE AWARE STAIRS going down towards bulkhead the water, SOME of the boards on the stairs are broken WALK DOWN AT YOUR OWN RISK****
