Welcome to your dream coastal retreat in the highly sought-after waterfront community of Cape St. John! This stunning home offers a rare, direct short path to the best private community beach in town — featuring a sandy shoreline, kayak storage, boat ramp, designated swimming area, and dock, all nestled along the majestic South River. From the moment you arrive, the home captivates with its custom stone façade, meticulously maintained landscaping, and striking bluestone paver patio that create unbeatable curb appeal. Step inside and experience a thoughtfully designed interior, where hand-selected designer finishes elevate every corner of the home. Gleaming hardwood floors flow seamlessly across the entire main level — including the spacious bedroom — adding warmth and timeless sophistication. Anchoring the living room is a stunning fireplace that creates a cozy yet refined ambiance perfect for any season. The fully renovated kitchen is a showstopper, complete with premium cabinetry, a high-end appliance package, stone countertops, and an open-concept layout that flows directly into the dining room. Step outside onto the expansive deck for effortless indoor-outdoor entertaining. The generously sized primary suite offers a true retreat, featuring a spa-like ensuite bathroom and a custom walk-in closet. Downstairs, the walk-out lower level continues to impress with wide-plank flooring, a pellet stove (heats the whole house, significant savings during the cold months) , large family room, full bath, and a flexible workshop/laundry area — easily convertible into a fourth bedroom. Outdoor living shines here, with multiple spaces to unwind or host: an upper deck, lower deck, and expansive bluestone patio all back to serene, wooded privacy with direct access to the beach path. The fully fenced backyard includes a storage shed with room for kayaks and paddleboards — everything you need for easy, breezy river adventures. This is more than a home — it’s a lifestyle. An unparalleled opportunity to live in one of Annapolis’ most beloved waterfront communities. Don’t let this rare gem pass you by! Recent updates include HVAC, water heater, roof, gutters, kitchen appliances, washer/dryer, and doors/windows — all less than 5 years old.

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
