Description
Serene Waterfront Retreat on Fairlee Creek is nestled in the tranquil woods of a private community just 10 minutes from the charming shops, museums, and dining of Chestertown, and the neighboring waterfront oriented town of Rock Hall. This stunning 4-bedroom, 2-bathroom waterfront home on Fairlee Creek offers the ultimate blend of seclusion, modern luxury, and effortless outdoor living. Imagine stepping out to launch your boat or kayak, or maybe just casting a line from your own private pier and floating dock—newly installed in 2025. Step inside this thoughtfully updated retreat, where every detail whispers "move-in ready." The upper level welcomes you with an open-concept living area, dining area, and kitchen, all flowing outside onto a partial wraparound deck perfect for sunset cocktails or al fresco family meals. Cozy up by the wood-burning stove in the living room on crisp evenings, or entertain in the heart of the home with a gas range and new quartz countertops in the kitchen. The upper level bedroom invites you to start your day with private deck access and creek views. Venture downstairs to the versatile lower main level, featuring three generously sized bedrooms—one with direct waterfront vistas and french doors to the expansive lower deck and lush yard. The flexible family room adapts to your lifestyle, whether as a cozy office, kids' play haven, home gym, or media lounge, all with easy access to the outdoors. Recent enhancements shine throughout: fresh paint graces the entire house and decks (2025), while a brand-new roof installed on October 6 of this year ensures peace of mind for years to come. A new central HVAC system for the lower level, efficient mini-splits on the upper level, and bathroom remodels were all completed in September of this year. The septic system was replaced in 2021 with new BAT septic system, rated for 4 bedrooms. Outside, the magic truly unfolds. Extensive hardscaping creates an entertainer's paradise, anchored by an inviting fire pit for starry-night gatherings, barbecues, gardening, or simply soaking in the creek's serene rhythm. Your private pier and floating dock make water access effortless—launch kayaks, tie up your boat, or just watch wildlife drift by. Fairlee Creek provides a short trip direct to the Chesapeake Bay.

The Temperature chart displays average high and low values for January and July, and is designed to provide an indication of both seasonal and daily temperature variability. The Weather Risk Index indicates the calculated risk of each type of weather event occurring in the future. This risk is based on historical localized storm events and weather patterns. The national average for each type of weather event equals a score of 100, so a score of 200 would represent twice the risk as the national average, and a score of 50 would represent half the risk of the national average.
