TIME CAPSULE, MEMORY MAKER SEARS & ROEBUCK HOUSE. This vintage 1940 waterfront cottage has been cherished by 3 generations since 1982. This special cottage property provides four seasons of enjoyment…revel in those epic summer vibes! The wraparound porch with tongue and groove floors and copper screening will win your love. Plan multiple seating spots for river vistas and perfect locally-sourced meals, just like the owner did in 1965 when LBJ and Speaker Rayburn visited for the weekend! The location offers complete relaxation just an hour from many DC Metro areas. Cozy cottage interior spaces include 2BR, a full bath, a living room with LP fireplace. The finished upper level offers room for bunk beds and extra living space. Bring board games and your favorite book collection, create that memorable experience. The cottage kitchen is suited for the perfect Chesapeake breakfast and summer meal prep. The very large 2 car detached garage building is excellent for a shop, storage of water toys, to set up a ping pong table, use for a party room and of course vehicles. Dual water views, future property development potential may be an investment speculation via ownership of 7 contiguous lots on the Potomac River + 1 waterfront lot on Neale Sound. This property delivers on the ultimate in waterfront enjoyment! Plan on broad vistas and sunsets over the Potomac River, protected boating water with second pier and boat lifts on the lot across the quaint Cobb Island street. Make life memories here. Sold as is. Be charmed!
