Tucked into the wooded shoreline community of Scientists’ Cliffs, this authentic log cabin blends craftsmanship, comfort, and Chesapeake Bay views. Built in 1956 and thoughtfully maintained, the home offers timeless character with meaningful updates that make it truly livable today. The main level features post-and-beam construction, rich hardwood floors, and a striking stone fireplace that anchors the living space and creates instant warmth. Natural light filters through the cabin-style windows, connecting the interior and water views beyond. The layout includes three bedrooms and two full baths, with an updated bathroom that respects the home’s original character while adding modern function. The finished lower level adds flexible living space, perfect for a family room, guest area, or home office, while still offering additional storage space. A porch and deck extend the living outdoors, ideal for morning coffee, evening dinners, or simply enjoying the quiet Bay breeze. This home is being sold turn-key, making it easy to step right into the Scientists’ Cliffs lifestyle, whether as a full-time residence or a weekend retreat. The property sits on a designated water-view lot. The home includes approximately 2,232 square feet total space, with a finished basement, and a single fireplace confirmed in the tax record. Scientists’ Cliffs is one of Calvert County’s most distinctive private communities, known for its preserved natural setting and strong sense of place. Residents enjoy private Chesapeake Bay beach access, a community pool, tennis courts, and a community center, all woven into a landscape of wooded roads and dramatic Bay views. Located in Port Republic, the community offers convenient access to Route 2 and Route 4, making commuting to Prince Frederick, Annapolis, Joint Base Andrews, and Washington, DC achievable while still feeling worlds away from daily noise.
