Spring is calling, and it wants you by the water. You are just in time to embrace a waterfront lifestyle in this turn-key, modern 2-car garage townhome nestled within the gated Shaw’s Discovery community. The only waterfront home currently available in the neighborhood, this 3-bedroom, 3.5-bath residence was built in 2019–2020 and feels virtually brand new, thanks to thoughtful upgrades throughout. Offering approximately 2,600 square feet of living space, the entry level features a sizable 2-car garage, welcoming foyer, upgraded full bath, and a spacious family room that opens to the rear patio and yard. Outside, native perennial gardens create a true gardener’s delight and a peaceful outdoor retreat. The main living level is designed for everyday living and effortless entertaining. A sun-filled, open-concept layout connects the living room to a gourmet kitchen featuring 48" cabinetry, granite countertops, gas cooking, recessed lighting, and an oversized center island. Bonus features include a custom walk-in pantry and a built-in home office station. A stylish powder room completes the level. Just off the dining area, step onto the expansive maintenance-free deck—perfect for grilling and dining—where you’ll enjoy hummingbirds in the garden, frequent bald eagle sightings, and, in fall and winter, beautiful Chesapeake Bay views once the leaves have dropped. The upper level offers three bedrooms and two full baths, including a serene owner’s suite with water views, a walk-in closet, and a spa-inspired en-suite bath with dual vanities, glass-enclosed shower, and private water closet. A conveniently located laundry room completes the level. Additional highlights include EV-ready upgraded electrical and specialty-coated garage flooring. Residents of Shaw’s Discovery enjoy exceptional community amenities, including a fishing pier, pavilion and picnic area, walking paths through 17 wooded acres, and a restorative beach area. A nearby boat launch, surrounding conservation lands, and multiple marinas make this location a dream for nature lovers and boating enthusiasts alike. Whether you’re seeking a peaceful retreat or an active coastal lifestyle, this home delivers. With water views, extensive upgrades, and a prime location just outside Baltimore, this is a rare opportunity to own a truly custom waterfront home in one of the area’s most desirable newer communities.

DR 5.5
Density Residential, 5.5 dwelling units per acre
The D.R. zoning classifications are established, pursuant to the legislative findings set forth above, in order to: Foster a greater variety in housing types within future residential developments; Allow more feasible preservation of natural features and induce the reservation of ample and more suitably designed open spaces and parks, in order to better satisfy the needs of residents without economic disadvantage to developers; Allow greater flexibility in subdivision-development planning and provide for the inducement of more creative as well as more economic approaches to residential development, with the goal of desirable and distinctive identity and character of individual residential locales; Provide the means to satisfy differing housing-market requirements without rezoning, and thus without disruptive changes in density potential; Provide for the application of residential zoning classifications in a manner more nearly in accord with comprehensive plans and comprehensive-planning goals and Provide greater certainty about dwelling types and densities within existing communities with the goal of conserving and maintaining these areas.
