WATERFRONT COMPOUND - DON’T LET THE BEDROOM COUNT FOOL YOU. Check out video tour. Welcome to a truly unique Battle Creek waterfront retreat featuring THREE SEPARATE SLEEPING AREAS including one located in the detached cabin/ADU that is not reflected in the MLS bedroom count. With two cabins, nearly an acre of private waterfront land, and a deep-water pier with multiple slips, this is anything but a typical home. Cherished by the same family for generations, this special property has served as a weekend getaway where family and friends gathered to escape, reconnect with nature, and make memories on the water. Now it is ready for its next chapter. The property offers two cabins and three separate sleeping areas, providing flexible space for family, guests, weekend getaways, fishing trips, or potential vacation-rental use. The deep-water pier with multiple slips makes Battle Creek your backyard playground, with easy access for boating, fishing, crabbing, kayaking, and exploring the waterways of Southern Maryland. Recent improvements include a newer roof, fresh paint, and luxury vinyl plank flooring throughout, while still preserving the relaxed character of this one-of-a-kind waterfront escape. Mature trees and the generous lot provide wonderful privacy and a peaceful setting that feels removed from everyday life. Whether you're searching for a weekend retreat, boating destination, potential Airbnb, or a waterfront property to enjoy now while exploring future possibilities, this is a rare opportunity to own a special piece of Southern Maryland waterfront. This property isn't about a conventional floor plan. It's about the land, the privacy, the deep water, the pier, and the lifestyle that comes with it.
The Rural Community District RCD is intended to maintain a mix of farms, forests, and residential uses, retain historic and scenic areas, and protect watersheds, fish, and wildlife. These goals are to be achieved in part through the mandatory clustering of subdivisions on parcels 30 acres or greater in size, with a minimum of 60 percent of the subdivision to be permanently preserved as open space. It is the intent to maintain a low residential density within this district while still allowing for some use of Transferable Development Rights TDRs. To avoid drawing traffic onto rural roads commercial uses are limited.
