Discover the potential of this wooded corner lot nestled on a quiet street in the desirable Chesapeake Ranch Estates community. With mature trees, gentle topography, and a peaceful setting, this property presents an affordable opportunity to own land in one of Southern Maryland's most amenity-rich neighborhoods. The lot directly adjoins several neighboring properties that have successfully perked, making it an especially attractive option for adjacent property owners looking to expand their footprint, enhance privacy, or secure additional land for the future. Residents enjoy access to private Chesapeake Bay and lakefront beaches, a clubhouse, campgrounds, hiking trails, playgrounds, garden plots, horseshoe pits, a private airstrip, and a man-made lake for swimming, fishing, and sailing. The community's long-established HOA offers modest fees and has future plans for continued road improvements. Conveniently located just minutes from shopping, restaurants, entertainment, Solomons Island, and Cove Point, this property also provides easy access to Dominion Energy, Calvert Cliffs, NAS Patuxent River, and Joint Base Andrews. The lot has never been improved or permitted. While several surrounding properties have successfully perked, this parcel has failed percolation testing twice within the past ten years. Priced aggressively and sold strictly as-is, it may appeal to neighboring owners, investors, or buyers seeking to explore future possibilities. Perk results are available for review. Contact the listing agent for additional details and creative opportunities.

About Chesapeak Ranch
Estates
Chesapeak Ranch Estates, located between the Patuxent River and the Chesapeake Bay, is a waterfront and wooded Chesapeake Ranch Estates neighborhood with private lake access and a marina-oriented layout. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Chesapeake Ranch Estates Town Center area along H.G. Trueman Road, where everyday errands meet a low-key, coastal rhythm. Housing leans toward mid-century and late-20th-century single-family homes and cabins, many set back under tall trees on curving roads. Community life often revolves around the lakes, small beaches, and boat ramps rather than a traditional main street. The Cove Point Lighthouse and the Calvert Marine Museum anchor local culture with maritime history and bayfront views. Nearby, Drum Point Market adds a classic waterside stop for local seafood and dockside chatter.

The Residential District RD is intended to provide for residential development in proximity to the Town Centers of Prince Frederick, Solomons, Lusby, North Beach, and Chesapeake Beach. This district allows for higher residential densities in proximity to Town Centers through the purchase of Transferable Development Rights TDRs. However, the ability to achieve maximum permitted density is dependent, in part, on the availability of sewerage service. This district also recognizes existing agriculture and accommodates agricultural uses. To avoid drawing commercial activity away from Town Centers, commercial uses are limited in this district.
