981 Court House Rd, Chesapeake City, MD 21915

Property Description

This one shows like new. Move-in ready 3-bedroom, 1-bath rancher on nearly half an acre in Chesapeake City, with a setting you will not find in a typical subdivision. Directly across the street is the Courthouse Point Managed Hunting Area, public land owned by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers and managed by the Maryland DNR on the east shore of the Elk River, just south of the C&D Canal. No neighbors out front, just woods, water, and wildlife. The area provides habitat for white-tailed deer, waterfowl, and upland game, and is open year-round to non-hunters with a free permit for hiking, fishing, biking on established trails, bird watching, and nature photography. Hunting is permitted in season with a free DNR permit (deer is archery only, with reserved waterfowl blind sites). Step out your front door and you are in it. The neighborhood adds even more. Residents enjoy a private community beach at Court House Cove with a pavilion, picnic area, and water views, and Harbor View Community Park just down the road offers a playground and half basketball court. Inside, the home has been updated top to bottom and is ready for its next owner. Luxury vinyl plank flooring runs throughout (2023), the kitchen has a new backsplash (2023), and a propane fireplace (2024) anchors the living room. Mini-split systems provide efficient heating and cooling, and the whole interior has been freshly painted. Stacked washer and dryer convey. One-level living with a crawl space foundation, vinyl siding, and shingle roof. Out back, a brand-new deck (2025) overlooks the fenced yard, and the shed has been newly sided (2026) for storage or a workshop. Three-car driveway. Public water and public sewer, no well or septic to maintain. USDA eligible for qualified buyers. Downtown Chesapeake City is minutes away with its waterfront restaurants and marina, the C&D Canal Museum, boat tours, and the paved Ben Cardin C&D Canal Trail running along the canal toward Delaware City. Convenient to Route 213 and the Delaware line.
