What's special

Rural eastern shore setting

INVESTOR/RENOVATION OPPORTUNITY in the northern portion of Dorchester County! Built in 1926, this classic home offers a unique opportunity to restore and bring a piece of local history back to its former glory. The home features 4 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, including a first-floor bedroom and full bathroom, with 3 additional bedrooms and a half bathroom on the second floor. The overall structural integrity appears sound; however, the property requires a complete renovation and is being offered as a project for an investor, contractor, or experienced house flipper. Nestled in a small neighborhood on the outskirts of East New Market, the property offers a rural Eastern Shore setting while remaining within the Warwick Elementary and North Dorchester Middle/High School districts. Bring your vision, tools, and creativity to unlock the potential of this 1926 home.
