Vintage Beach cottage known as "Beulah’s Cottage" is a charming 1950s beach retreat, originally built as a weekend getaway, tucked just 30 paces down a wooded path from the shores of the Chesapeake Bay. Venture another 300 paces to discover historic Cove Point and its iconic lighthouse—the first ever built on the Bay. To the north, the renowned Calvert Cliffs rise above the shoreline, releasing thousands of prehistoric fossils, including coveted shark teeth, which beachcombers can find year-round. A five-minute stroll up the road leads to the front beach, where you'll enjoy sweeping views of Little Cove Point Cliffs and the lighthouse—an inspiring setting for seaside relaxation. The cottage is constructed of durable hardwood framing, later enhanced with siding. Its footprint is simple and classic: a rectangular form with a two-step entry into a screened-in porch. Inside, the home opens into a combined living and dining area, full of character and natural light. To the right, a spacious bedroom features two large picture windows and a generous closet. The bedroom shares an interior wall with the main living space, which includes a sliding glass door that brings in abundant light and connects seamlessly with the outdoors. A countertop separates the living area from the cheerful kitchen, facilitating easy entertaining and meal prep. The kitchen includes a window over a full sink, a full-sized refrigerator, an oven, upper cabinets, and charming original mid-century beach style touches. On the left side of the living/dining space is a closet adjacent to the porch wall. The dining area comfortably fits a table for six and a china cabinet, and also features a second sliding glass door for outdoor access. From the main entry, the kitchen is easily accessed at the back right of the cottage. A small foyer on the left leads to the bathroom and a separate utility/storage room at the rear of the structure. The pitched roof was replaced in 2018, ensuring peace of mind. The property is surrounded by mature trees and includes a small persimmon grove, adding to the natural beauty. A detached shed, approximately eight years old, offers additional storage. Cove Point Beach is a quiet, private neighborhood located just three miles from Route 2/4 in Calvert County. Residents enjoy proximity to a private country club with golfing, as well as a nearby public park with swimming pools, sports facilities, and picnic areas. Local shopping is convenient in Lusby Town Center, or a short drive to Prince Frederick, Lexington Park, or California, MD. The area also offers easy access to historic landmarks and museums throughout Southern Maryland. No active Well or Septic permits on the property. Sold by Estate, AS IS.
