"Water front homes in Maryland and Virginia"

Maryland IS waterfront. On the Chesapeake Bay, the Severn River, the Matothy River, the South River, the Potomac River, the Patuxent River and more. Look for water front properties along the many miles of waterfront in Maryland. Virginia water front properties are primarily in Stafford County on the Potomac, King George on the Potomac and along the Occoquan in Prince William. Alexandria on the Potomac has some lovely water front properties.

The Chesapeake Bay, the Severn River, the Magothy River, the South River and other important water ways offer unique opportunities for waterfront real estate. Maryland has some of the most beautiful and useful water front homes and real estate on the east coast. We have the Chesapeake Bay, the most spectacular estuary in the country. The many rivers and streams that cover the eastern shore of Maryland offer many thousands of feet of water frontage. Our job is to find the very best water front, water oriented, water access home for you at the best price.


Water Front Property Is Very Scarce
Water, water everywhere and hardly a lot to spare. Water front lots are finite. Sure, there are many feet of water front. However, the State of Maryland has implemented restrictions on development of these lots that make new construction extremely difficult and expensive. Building permits are limited. So, the resale market is brisk and scarce. But, our job is to (1) know where to look and (2) know the value.

Unique Properties
Water front properties are difficult to price because there are seldom two alike. Individual property owners naturally try to sell their properties for as much as they can. Our job is to give you the facts so you can make realistic offers for the market.

Where To Park The Sail Boat
Many water front communities have a limited number of water front homes, but offer community access to marina slips and boat launch facilities. Often these communities will have club memberships to recreation facilities for families, restaurants and occasionally a golf course. So, while you may not be prepared to pay for waterfront real estate real estate, there are many water oriented communities with marinas, boat slips and launch areas for small boats.

Maryland Means Water
The areas offering water oriented properties include: Anne Arundel County - Severn River, Chesapeake Bay, Magothy River, South River, other rivers, bays, creeks, and streams. Bay front property is the most expensive but there are often homes for sale at reasonable prices. Fixer-uppers are sought but few exist since even the smallest
home with water frontage sells for a good price.

Our agents know the areas very well. If you are in the market for luxury waterfront, we'll find that jewel for you.
