Coastal Waterfront Retreat with Deep Water & Minimal Steps
Enjoy effortless waterfront living in this stunning coastal retreat, perfectly situated at the end of a quiet dead-end street on the protected waters of Cockey Creek on the Magothy River. With just 20 easy steps from your back patio to a private 50-foot pier featuring 8 feet of MLW and a 10,000 lb boat lift, this home offers rare deep-water access ideal for boating and watersports enthusiasts. The home is elevated above the flood plain, while the waterfront is quickly and easily accessed.
Step into a lifestyle that feels like a permanent vacation—wake to peaceful water views and the gentle sounds of nature from your spacious sunroom, where floor-to-ceiling windows flood the space with natural light and provide breathtaking panoramic views of the creek. This serene spot blurs the lines between indoors and out, offering an inviting place to relax, entertain, or savor your morning coffee.
The sunroom opens directly to a beautifully crafted stone patio and landscaped gardens, creating seamless indoor-outdoor living perfect for soaking up the Chesapeake breeze or hosting intimate gatherings. The cantilevered wooden deck over the water extends your living space and offers a front-row seat to stunning views and wildlife. Whether you're setting off by boat, casting a fishing line, or relaxing with a drink on your deck cantilevered over the water, life flows at a slower, more intentional pace here. The multiple outdoor living spaces—including a stone waterfront patio, landscaped gardens, and front courtyard—are ideal for entertaining, gardening, or simply soaking up the breeze.
Inside, over 2,100 square feet of thoughtfully updated living space includes 4 bedrooms and 2 full baths. The kitchen, fully renovated in 2022, boasts quartz countertops, modern stainless steel GE Profile appliances, a WiFi-enabled cooktop, and a window with serene water views that make cooking a joy. An open layout connects the kitchen, sunroom, and living area, enhancing the light and airy feel throughout the home. The main-level office/den offers a private entrance, making it ideal for remote work or a creative studio. This home has been lovingly maintained with Hardiplank siding, luxury flooring, paver walkways, and 2019 HVAC and electrical upgrades.
Imagine waking up every day to your own private waterfront playground—where boating, fishing, kayaking, and paddleboarding are not just weekend activities, but part of your daily routine. Launch your boat from your deep-water pier with ease, glide through calm, protected waters, or cast a line right from your dock while enjoying the peaceful sounds of nature. Whether you’re exploring the creek, paddling at sunrise, or relaxing on the water at sunset, this is waterfront living at its finest—a true vacation lifestyle that welcomes you home every day.
