Renovation is in progress on this 3 bedroom, 2 bath home with fabulous Chesapeake Bay views. The current owners demo'd and purchased the materials to rebuild, but their plans changed. This is a great opportunity for a buyer to purchase under market price and complete the finish work in their own style. The views and sunsets are spectacular and the shoreline is rip-rapped. Bring your tools and ideas to finish this project!

Bought with Robin Fithian• Rock Hall Properties Real Estate
This is an opportunity to buy a property directly on the Chesapeake Bay with supreme views of the bay and bayfront access. The house itself will need a substantial amount of work, is being sold AS-IS, and septic will most likely need to be replaced. The value is in the footprint; however, the roof is new, and the location simply can't be beat. There is an attached two car garage and a substantial interior fireplace. The property is fully rip-rapped. The yard has gorgeous mature trees framing the bay, famous Rock Hall sunsets, and will make a fantastic setting for your family gatherings. Enjoy bay breezes, watching the boats go buy, fishing right from your lawn. Social distancing built right in on this one. Just a short walk away is a private community kayak/boat launch which gives you access to Huntingfield Creek, a corner around from the bay. The charming waterfront town of Rock Hall is a five minute drive down the street, with access to a dozen marinas, shops and restaurants. Don't miss this opportunity; buy it now so you can have it ready to enjoy by next Spring.
