Offered for the first time since it was built in 1988, this lovingly maintained Eastern Shore retreat is a rare opportunity to own a property that has been thoughtfully created and nurtured by its original owners for nearly four decades. Situated on 2 peaceful acres just minutes from Cambridge and less than five minutes from the Hyatt Chesapeake Bay Golf Resort, Spa & Marina, this idyllic country setting adjoins a 600-acre farm of tillable fields and woodlands with a conservation easement ensuring it will not be developed, providing exceptional privacy, quiet surroundings, and abundant wildlife right outside your door. The well-maintained 3-bedroom, 2-bath ranch home offers comfortable single-level living with numerous recent improvements, including a new architectural shingle roof, vinyl siding, gutters and downspouts, carpeting, and updated kitchen featuring granite countertops, subway tile backsplash, stainless steel refrigerator and gas range. A breakfast bar provides casual seating while the adjoining dining area offers space for everyday meals and gatherings. French doors open from the living room to a beautiful family room/den, creating flexible living space filled with natural light. The primary suite features an updated ceramic tile bath with walk-in shower and rain showerhead, while the hall bath has been tastefully renovated with ceramic tile flooring and a jetted tub/shower combination. The third bedroom is currently configured as a custom walk-in closet but can easily be converted back to a traditional bedroom. A separate laundry room adds convenience, and Hunter Douglas window treatments throughout the home are included. Step outside through the dining room slider onto the rear deck and pergola overlooking a partially fenced backyard that has been transformed into a gardener's paradise. Every tree, shrub, perennial, and flower bed has been personally planted and cultivated by the owners, creating a landscape that attracts songbirds, butterflies, and pollinators throughout the seasons. Raised garden beds produce fresh vegetables and berries, while open windows invite the peaceful sounds of birdsong and wind chimes drifting across the neighboring farm fields and woods. A truly special feature of the property is the detached 20' x 20' soundproof studio, home to Mike Elzey's Guitar Studio for decades and the place where countless local musicians learned to play and bands gathered to rehearse. Recently refreshed with new carpeting and paint, the studio offers heating, air conditioning, and endless possibilities for music, art, hobbies, a home office, fitness space, or workshop. As a unique touch of local history, the acoustical ceiling tiles originated from the former Cambridge High School/YMCA. Additional improvements include a 20' x 12' storage shed and chicken coop. Located in the Vienna Elementary and North Dorchester school districts, this exceptional property combines country tranquility, convenient access to Cambridge amenities, nearby boating, golf, and waterfront recreation, and the pride of ownership that can only come from decades of loving care. If you've been searching for a place where nature, privacy, creativity, and Eastern Shore charm come together, this is a property you simply must experience in person.
