Property Description

Nestled on 18.9 picturesque acres in beautiful St. Mary's County, Maryland, this charming 4-bedroom, 2.5-bath Cape Cod offers the perfect blend of timeless character, modern upgrades, and exceptional income opportunity through farming and possible subdivision. Built in 1948 and meticulously maintained, the home showcases 1,981 square feet of living space plus a 959-square-foot unfinished basement, providing both storage space and future room to grow. From the moment you arrive, you'll appreciate the peaceful setting surrounded by mature trees and lush greenery, offering privacy and a true escape from the pace of city life. A spacious rear wooden deck invites you to relax, entertain, and enjoy the tranquil views of your expansive property. Inside, the home features gorgeous hardwood floors throughout the main and upper levels. The thoughtfully updated kitchen boasts new cabinetry and stainless-steel appliances, blending style and functionality. The main level includes two bedrooms, a full bath, a half bath (newly added by the owner), dining room, and laundry room, while the upper level offers two additional bedrooms and a full bath, also newly added to the home. Outbuildings add even more value and versatility, including a large 904 sq. ft., two-car garage with workshop space, and a classic rustic tobacco barn. The barn has been carefully maintained with new wood reinforcements (2021–2026), new structural footers, and a roof repair and sealing in 2023, making it ideal for equipment storage or agricultural use. This property truly stands out for its extensive list of major upgrades and system improvements, reflecting exceptional care and investment: New energy-efficient heat pump HVAC system (Feb 2026); New metal roof on home and garage (2025); New gutters (2025); New energy-efficient hot water heater (2021); New PEX plumbing pipes throughout (2022); Basement resealed and waterproofed (2022); New well pump (2021); Septic system fully pumped (2021). The land itself is a standout feature. A portion is currently farmed for hay, providing immediate income potential, and it has also supported vegetable farming in the past. With a mix of open and forested acreage, the property offers flexibility for farming, recreation, or simply enjoying nature. Zoned as Rural Preservation District (RPD), this property is designed to maintain agricultural integrity while still offering future development potential. With the use of Transferable Development Rights (TDRs), there may be an opportunity to subdivide and build an additional dwelling, making this not just a home, but a strategic investment. Whether you're seeking a private rural retreat, a working farm, or a property with long-term income and development potential, this exceptional offering delivers on all fronts. Make sure to view the video which highlights the home's interior as well as aerial views of the home and property. Conveyance of furniture and equipment negotiable. Property also listed as farm and as land in MLS.
