Cobb Island, MD

Great Price for Waterfornt in Southern Maryland Only $399,950!

The owners of this house spent around two years looking for the perfect location for waterfront in Southern Mayland that offered the combination of boating, fishing, and wildlife. They enjoy the entertainment just sitting in the screened in porch or upper deck viewing fishing boats, eagles, fox, deer, all kinds of ducks and water fowl. At night it is so dark they even got to see a meteor shower from the upper deck. When I was standing on the deck I could imagine viewing the stars and seeing the moon reflect on the water at night. I enjoyed viewing some ducks during my visit there.

The owner purchased the original house in 2000 just for the land. They wanted to build a new house but had to stick to the original footprint due to zoning restrictions. They designed the house with efficient use of space but they did want a spacious master bedroom as their retreat.

The master bedroom located on the 2^nd floor has gorgeous water views and a French door leading out to the deck. The master bath has a soaking tub and separate shower. There is also a walk-in closet and laundry area. In the corner of the master bedroom there is a room attached they use for an office. The office has windows on two sides, both with great views. It's a great place to relax while you are working and sparking some creativity.

The living area is on the main floor and is very open and bright. You can view the water while washing the dished in the kitchen. The kitchen is galley style and was designed to be efficient with plenty of storage. There is a breakfast bar opening to the living area so you can interact with guests while preparing dinners.

The owners favorite part of the house is the screened in porch overlooking the creek. They have enjoyed many crab feasts there. It makes a perfect spot to enjoy a glass of wine in the evening or cup of coffee in the morning.

If you like boating this may be the perfect house for you. Weather you like to fish or cruise you can't beat the location on the water. It even comes with a boatlift! Last year some of the largest fish in Southern Maryland were being caught off the Potomac just a mile away by boat. Crabbing of the pier is great too. The owners catch plenty of crabs off the end of the pier. If you like cruising to restaurants by boat you are in luck here, there are several to choose from just a short boat ride away.

If you like biking it is a great location. You can ride your bike to Cobb Island and local restaurants. Some roads even have bike paths.

This home is located in a rural area so there are no HOA fees or restrictions. Many people visiting the owners ask "how did you find this place?" Even though it is in a rural area you can still get cable and internet through satellite dish.

I first visited Cobb Island in 1990 when I was invited to a family picnic where I met all of my future in-laws. My wife's family has had a summer home on the Potomac River since 1975. Cobb Island is a community that is made up of mostly single family homes and cottages. The residential population is split between full-time and part time residents. I always refer to Cobb Island as the "land that time forgot". It is quiet and peaceful, you can let your kids ride their bikes and not have to worry about traffic and riff raff. There's plenty of activities to do such as fishing, swimming , jet skis and the like. There's a small market, ice cream shop, coffee shop and post office on the island. There are a couple of restaurants . I recommend Captain John's for hard shell crabs and everything seafood. If you ever get the chance take a road trip to Cobb Island, it's at the southern tip of Charles County on the map. You won't be disappointed.
