Welcome to 39 Oak Forest Lane, a charming Cape Cod-style home nestled just outside the town limits of North East, Maryland. Perfectly suited for nature lovers, this well-maintained property sits on a serene 1.5-acre wooded lot that backs directly to Elk Neck State Forest, offering privacy and peaceful surroundings while still being minutes from town. From the moment you arrive, the inviting wrap-around porch sets the tone for a home that’s ideal for both entertaining and unwinding outdoors. Step inside to discover a spacious formal living room featuring beautiful hardwood floors and a cozy wood-burning fireplace. Nearby, the formal dining room provides the perfect setting for hosting family dinners and holiday gatherings. The kitchen is complete with a center island and double-bowl sink, granite countertops, and stainless steel appliances including a double oven, electric cooktop, trash compactor, dishwasher, and more. Adjacent to the kitchen, a sun-filled breakfast room offers the perfect spot for casual meals, with large windows that bathe the space in natural light. Toward the left side of the home, the inviting family room features another wood-burning fireplace and French doors that open to the rear deck, seamlessly blending indoor and outdoor living. A full bathroom with a jetted tub and a large storage closet are also located on the main level, along with a convenient mudroom that connects directly to the attached two-car garage. Upstairs, the spacious primary bedroom includes twin closets, a Jack-and-Jill style bathroom, and private access to a second-story deck that overlooks the backyard, complete with stairs down to the main level. Down the hall, two additional bedrooms offer generous closet space and share an updated full bathroom with a glass stall shower. The partially finished basement expands the living space further with a recreation room, a unique entertainment room featuring a wet bar—perfect for a wine or cigar lounge—and multiple storage closets for added convenience. Step outside to the fenced rear yard where you’ll find a large deck with hot tub, a storage shed, and a cozy firepit area, ideal for evenings under the stars. For added peace of mind, the home is equipped with a whole-house generator, and Comcast Xfinity is available to keep you connected. Recent updates include a 50-year roof with a transferable warranty installed approximately 15 years ago, a new water heater (2024), a high-efficiency electric heat pump with propane backup (2023), an updated electrical panel, a newer well pump and pressure tank (replaced three years ago), and re-sleeved chimney flues. Additionally, Basement Systems installed a French drain with two sump pumps and a dehumidifier, all under a transferable warranty. Ideally located just a short drive from the shops, restaurants, and marinas of North East, and with easy access to Route 40 and I-95, this home blends rustic charm with modern comfort in a beautiful natural setting. Don’t miss the opportunity to make it yours.

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.
