Discover the perfect blend of historic charm and modern updates at this meticulously maintained 3-bedroom, 2.5-bath Colonial home, nestled in the heart of Cambridge and near the water’s edge of the Choptank River.
Upon arrival, you’re greeted by a classic red front door framed by the inviting brick front steps and an elegant arched portico. Step inside to a sun-filled foyer where original hardwood floors flow throughout the main level. The spacious living areas feature arched entryways and exposed brick that exude character and warmth.
The living room, complete with a double window that overlooks the sycamore-lined street, is next to the first-floor laundry and convenient closet. Across the foyer is the open kitchen and dining area with a cozy brick fireplace. The fully updated kitchen showcases gleaming cream cabinetry, glass accent cabinets, quartz countertops, stainless steel appliances including a gas range, and an island perfect for meal prep. The kitchen’s modern fixtures, ample storage and counter space make it a standout feature of this home. Off of the kitchen is a special nook that invites lots of sunlight and is a perfect quiet space to have your morning coffee or read your favorite book.
To the rear of the first floor are two additional rooms and a half bathroom. These spaces have previously been used for a music studio, TV room, home office and extra sleeping space for visitors.
Upstairs, three generously-sized carpeted bedrooms offer peaceful retreats with plenty of natural light and some glimpses of the river. The primary suite includes a walk-in closet and a spacious en-suite with separate vanities. The two additional bedrooms share a full bath with modern fixtures. Above the hallway, an encapsulated, floored attic provides extensive storage.
Outdoors, enjoy your private backyard oasis. The composite deck, with its pergola overhead, is ideal for hosting summer barbecues or simply enjoying the serene surroundings. The fenced yard provides ample space for gardening, play, or pets. Both the native plant garden in the back yard as well as the rain garden in the front yard provide unique, beautiful environment-friendly touches.
The building in the back of the lot includes a detached one and a half car garage and a ground-level, one-bedroom apartment with its own private entrance, making it ideal for extended family stays, a home office, or as a potential rental unit to generate additional income. The apartment has a kitchenette, cozy living area, and a full bath, creating a comfortable, self-contained living space separate from the main home. With its distinct entrance and proximity to the main house, this unique addition enhances both the property’s functionality and investment potential.
Additional features of this home include two-zoned central air conditioning, a full basement and fabulous nearby amenities — Gerry Boyle Great Marsh Park (playground, boat ramp, events), YMCA, city boat dock, Choptank Lighthouse, downtown restaurants, arts center, and shops are all within 1 mile.
