A beautiful, 9-year young home, wrapped on three sides with decks, with Chesapeake Bay views and an absolutely stunning almost 1/2-acre yard could all be yours while you are still less than one hour from DC and Annapolis. This is very unique home inside and out for the following reasons: It's one of the newer homes that was designed by an artist with high ceilings, lots of natural sunlight, and pine and slate flooring; a second floor with a full bath, stunning master bed room with its own deck and guest room (or office), both with water views that get even better in the winters, and a loft reading area under skylights; another large ground-level bedroom with four windows and across the hall from a 3/4 bath with two sinks, slate floor and washer and dryer; a beautiful kitchen with granite counters, barn-wood shelves, and many pullout cabinets; a large great combination dining area and family room from which you can access large deck areas, one of which has small dog door with access to a pen; finished walkout basement with a 3/4 bath, slate pool/ping-pong table that conveys, and a separate area that was used as an artist's studio; a single garage with a brand new custom work bench and shelves; and another hobbyist dream (insulated) workshop off the garage with custom-made workbenches that convey. The uniqueness of this home continues with the outside features including: parking for 5 cars; a nearly 1/2 acre lot (bigger and sunnier than most in the community); a garden shed built under the large deck that was constructed with hot tub potential; a pond with a water fall and beautiful koi (they too convey!) that you can feed from your deck; a gardener- and pollinator-paradise with lots of flowering trees including dogwoods, apples, cherries, peaches and more; over 10 great-yielding blue berry bushes and raspberries and blackberries; two grape vine areas; figs; and a great veggie garden area that has been providing the owners enough cucumbers, zucchinis and tomatoes to use and share. And what makes the home and yard even more special is its location in the private Scientist Cliffs community with the following amenities: approximately 2000 feet of Chesapeake Bay beach frontage and boat ramp; community pool and tennis courts; two community log-buildings (one of which is bay front) you can rent for gatherings; and, summer camp for kids. All of this is located within a very short walking distance to over 20 miles of groomed hiking trails in the American Chestnut Land Trust. This quiet community on the bay is only 10 minutes from great shopping in Prince Frederick; and, only 20 minutes from the stunning sights of Solomon's island. If you are looking for a newer, bright, gorgeous home with all the amenities described above, schedule your visit soon and also see all of the koi, flowers, birds (e. g. , hummingbirds and active bluebird boxes!) and butterflies. If interested, the majority of inside and outside furniture conveys to buyers at no additional cost making it ready to move in! Artwork not included. The house has a nitrogen reduction septic system and a generator system. All buyers must apply to be members of the Scientists' Cliffs Association.

RD
Residential District
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.
Permitted uses
Include but are not limited to:
Agriculture
Religious facility
Housing-Multiple units
