Description
Waterfront home on 23.23± acres overlooking Oyster Cove and the Chesapeake Bay. Known as Vista Bella Estate, this private waterfront property on Taylors Island combines breathtaking western-facing bay views, a charming cottage and exceptional wildlife habitat. The modest yet charming 966± square-foot cottage is carefully positioned to capture spectacular views of the Bay, surrounding marsh, and natural landscape. An inviting entrance leads into a light-filled solarium offering spacious waterfront views and a beautiful bluestone fireplace. Additional features include bedrooms with cedar closet storage and a warm, inviting sunroom currently used for growing orchids. The home's comfortable character and thoughtful placement provide an ideal setting for enjoying the surrounding natural beauty. The owners have spent years enhancing the property with a variety of fruit-bearing trees, including pear, persimmon, and pomegranate. Sika deer regularly visit the yard to feed on fallen persimmons, creating a unique opportunity to observe these elusive animals right from the home. A distinctive lookout tower offers the potential for restoration or creative reimagining to take full advantage of the property's panoramic views. The pole barn garage provides convenient storage with rear pull-in access for tractors, implements,
and recreational equipment. A historic outhouse and pumphouse add a touch of Eastern Shore heritage and character to the property. The sellers have also constructed an additional protective mound system around the home near the marsh to help safeguard against tidal impacts.
With over 900 yards of shoreline, the property offers opportunities to restore the existing pier or explore construction of a new pier, subject to applicable permits and approvals. Water depth at the existing pier is reported to be approximately 32 inches under observed conditions, subject to tidal fluctuations and buyer verification. Recent surveying and engineering work has identified and documented an additional Sewage Reserve Area (SRA) septic site, offering potential flexibility for new construction or a second homesite, subject to county approvals. A recent survey plat is available upon request.
Whether envisioned as a private family waterfront retreat, recreational getaway, or future Chesapeake Bay estate, this remarkable property combines natural beauty, exceptional privacy, abundant wildlife, and tremendous potential along Maryland's Eastern Shore.
Property is being sold AS-IS.
Offered individually or available with the adjoining 38.879± acre parcel for a combined 62.109± acres.
