Property Description

Eastern Shore Living, Island Style. Move-in Ready. Honga River sunrises and Chesapeake sunsets. Watermen heading out at dawn'; ospreys, heron, and egrets catching their dinner. A short walk to crabs harvested that very morning. This is the Eastern Shore at its most authentic—windswept marshes, rich history, and the Bay itself, wrapped up in on a magical place where time slows down so you can catch up. This historic home offers the perfect blend of relaxed coastal elegance and everyday comfort. Bright, airy spaces, timeless finishes, and a seamless flow create an inviting atmosphere ideal for both peaceful living and effortless entertaining. Every detail reflects the easy, laid-back lifestyle the Eastern Shore is known for — a place to unwind, reconnect, and enjoy the quiet rhythm of island life. Designed for an unplugged lifestyle, broadband high-speed internet ($89 per month) allow for telework and gaming teenagers. Perfect as a full-time residence or the perfect retreat, this is a home where you can move right in. Here, mornings are quieter, evenings linger longer, and life unfolds at a slower pace. Picture yourself on the front porch in a rocking chair, as you feel bay breezes caress your skin and watch dragonflies skim the air. Hummingbirds on the porch and red-winged blackbirds dancing through marsh grasses. It's the kind of setting that brings you back to simple moments and lasting peace.

Stretching ten miles and made up of three barrier islands, it’s home to pelicans, ospreys, great blue herons, egrets, cormorants, ibis, and only about 500 year‑round residents. Outdoors, the lifestyle truly comes alive--summer firepits under the stars, crisp fall evenings along the shoreline, and kayak adventures just moments way (kayaks included). Each season brings its own rhythm from sun-soaked summer days to the deeply restorative autumn season. 📍 The Region Close to Easton, St. Michaels, and Oxford Minutes from Blackwater National Wildlife Refuge with hiking trails, water routes, and abundant wildlife Near the Harriet Tubman Museum Ten minutes to Old Salty’s, a beloved Eastern Shore institution A short walk to the freshest crabmeat and steamed crabs Easy day trips to Ocean City, Rehoboth Beach, St. Michaels, Easton, or Oxford
