Set along Queenstown Creek with direct access to the Chester River, this estate offers 56 feet of private frontage and sweeping views across to Queenstown Harbor Golf Course. Built in 1894 and thoughtfully updated, the residence combines timeless character with modern comforts on one of the Chesapeake Bay’s most desirable waterways. The waterfront is anchored by a private pier extending approximately 122 feet into deep water, complete with two slips, two lifts, and a privately owned boat and kayak ramp, an uncommon amenity for seamless exploration of the Bay. Outdoor living features a newer deck, waterfront pavilion, gazebo, and shed, all designed to embrace the Chesapeake lifestyle. Inside, the home balances charm and function: a remodeled kitchen with newer appliances, reproduction barn wood accents, enhanced baths, newer windows and doors, updated lighting, and attic storage. Recent upgrades include a new HVAC (2023) and water heater (2024). This estate has not been offered for sale in decades and represents an opportunity of true scarcity. Beyond its private waterfront and golf course views, the location offers immediate access to Wye Island Natural Resources Management Area and, just down the Chester River, the Eastern Neck National Wildlife Refuge. Together these protected lands offer thousands of acres of preserved shoreline, wildlife, and trails along the Chesapeake. From farm-to-table dining and wineries to world-class marinas and sporting pursuits, the Eastern Shore lifestyle is at your doorstep. Annapolis, Washington, D.C., and Baltimore are within easy reach, with private aviation nearby.
This is more than a home. It is a rare Chesapeake retreat that delivers privacy, prestige, and the unique character of Maryland’s Eastern Shore.
