    What's special

    New stair treadsFresh paint throughoutNew flooringFenced backyardFour bedroomsFully redone main-level bathroom
    Some homes check one or two boxes. This one checks all of them, and does it for under $350,000. Four bedrooms, two full baths, a fenced backyard, a pool, and open farmland views behind the property. In today's market, that combination at this price point is genuinely rare. This is the kind of home first-time buyers dream about and out-of-area buyers can't believe exists when they start comparing what their dollar buys on Maryland's Eastern Shore versus what they left behind. The home has been meticulously maintained since it was built. The roof was replaced just a few years ago. Windows, electrical, and plumbing are all in solid shape. No deferred maintenance, no surprises waiting. Inside, the owners have kept things fresh and updated. New stair treads, new flooring, fresh paint throughout, and a fully redone main-level bathroom give the home a clean, move-in ready feel without the new construction price tag. The layout works. At 1,700 square feet across a classic cape cod footprint, the space lives efficiently with room for everyone. Step outside and the property really opens up. The fenced yard gives you privacy and keeps things contained, ideal if you have kids, pets, or simply want your space defined. The pool turns a summer at home into something you actually look forward to. Backing to farmland means no rear neighbors, just open sky and quiet. The shed provides all of the storage for your outdoor essentials. Preston sits in Caroline County in the heart of the Eastern Shore, the kind of small town where things slow down in the best possible way. You're a short drive to Easton and Denton for shopping, dining, and services, but far enough out to trade the noise for something quieter. For buyers coming from the DMV corridor, this is what the move looks like in real numbers. More home, more land, more life, less cost. Schedule your showing and see what $349,900 actually looks like out here.
