Welcome to 12938 Rivers Edge. Located at the mouth of the Wicomico River and with sensational sunsets, this waterfront Gem awaits its new owners!!! From the moment you walk through the doors you'll be in awe of the panoramic views from the Sun room that highlight the river and the beauty that goes with it. Adjacent to that is a fully upgraded kitchen with Granite Counters and SS Appliances. From there you'll step into ample sized main living area with it's own views and a fireplace to create a relaxing vibe. The flooring has been updated with LVP for easy upkeep. There are three bedrooms, with one being a primary suite and a second bathroom to support additional guest. Step out onto the well-maintained dock to kickback, take in the salt breeze and let your cares melt away. There is an electric boat lift for your convenience, so that within minutes you can be in the Chesapeake Bay or one of the many tributaries. The yard is large enough to make outdoor entertaining a breeze. On low tide you have some sandy beach to put your toes in and the rip-rap is sturdy enough to protect your shoreline. Add to that the enhanced state of the art water treatment system and the BAT septic, that is in a bi-annual maintenance agreement with Towers, and all that's left to do is drop the bags and start enjoying this beautiful property. Professional Photography will be available soon!!!
