Finding over 3,000 square feet of updated living space on a full acre just minutes from the beach is rare-especially in a quiet neighborhood with no HOA. This beautifully maintained home offers the space, flexibility, and location that today's buyers are searching for. At the center of the home is a stunning renovated kitchen featuring granite countertops, upgraded cabinetry, updated appliances, a large center island, and an elegant backsplash. It opens seamlessly to the main living and dining areas, making it equally suited for everyday living and entertaining. Throughout the home, multiple gathering spaces provide exceptional flexibility, whether you envision formal living and dining rooms, a playroom, media room, home office, or cozy family room. Two classic brick fireplaces add warmth and character to the home's inviting layout. With five generously sized bedrooms and three full bathrooms, there's room for family, guests, or multi-generational living. The spacious primary suite includes a private bath, while the walk-out lower level expands the possibilities with a large family room, a beautiful custom bar, an additional bedroom or office, a half bath, and abundant natural light that makes the space feel anything but like a basement. Outside, enjoy the privacy and freedom that come with a full acre of land-plenty of room for entertaining, gardening, play, or simply relaxing in your own backyard. And with the beach just four miles away, weekends can be spent on the water instead of sitting in traffic. Luxury vinyl plank flooring, updated lighting, replacement windows, newer HVAC, roof, siding, a recently replaced well pump, and a one-car garage mean many of the major improvements have already been completed, allowing the next owner to simply move in and enjoy. Located within the highly regarded Calvert County school district and offering convenient access to Annapolis, Baltimore, and Washington, D.C., this home combines everyday comfort with an exceptional lifestyle that's increasingly difficult to find.
