Property Description
Enjoy captivating water views of Hambrooks Bay and the Choptank River from this classic brick rancher, perfectly situated beside Gerry Boyle Park at Great Marsh. Launch your boat just steps away at the public ramp, then take advantage of ample driveway space when you return from a day on the water. This highly sought-after location places you in the heart of Cambridge's waterfront lifestyle-offering front-row access to the 4th of July fireworks, the Cambridge Power Boat Regatta, and the Ironman and Eagleman triathlons. Well-built and thoughtfully maintained, this home showcases timeless features including original hardwood floors, crown molding, a brick wood-burning fireplace, and a ceramic-tile bath. The living room captures stunning sunrises over the Choptank River and twinkling evening views of the bridge lights, while other rooms enjoy serene scenes of Hambrooks Bay. A bright sunroom overlooking the backyard provides an inviting space for relaxing or entertaining. The kitchen includes casual dining space for everyday meals, while the formal dining room sets the stage for hosting family and friends. Original hardwood floors remain preserved beneath newly installed carpeting, offering the best of both comfort and charm. An attached two-car garage with an automatic door provides convenience for parking or storage. Recent improvements enhance both efficiency and peace of mind-featuring an architectural shingle roof, upgraded HVAC, conversion from oil to natural gas, added insulation, new carpeting, and a new heat pump/central air system. With the YMCA, Glasgow Tennis Courts, and Cambridge Yacht Club all nearby, this property combines quality construction, scenic views, and an unbeatable location along Cambridge's waterfront.
