A waterfront home on a quiet cul-de-sac with a private dock on Back Creek.
ON THE WATER
The property sits directly on Back Creek with a private dock at the bottom of
the yard. The creek is navigable out to the Chesapeake Bay, and the bridges
along the way have clearance for typical powerboats.
For anyone who owns a boat, it means keeping it at home rather than paying for a
marina slip. The neighboring property keeps a boat on rails, so the setup works
on this stretch of water.
For anyone who does not, it is a quiet tidal creek at the back of the yard and
sunsets over the water.

WATERFRONT NOTE
The creek is tidal, so water depth at the dock changes through the day.
The property is in a flood hazard area. It has not flooded in the ten years we
have owned it. Standard renters insurance does not cover flood, so separate
contents coverage is worth carrying, renters contents-only policies typically
run about $150-300 per year. Coverage takes 30 days to take effect, so
it is worth arranging early rather than when weather is forecast.
APPLYING
Applications are completed online and take about ten minutes. Screening covers
credit, criminal background, eviction history, income verification and rental
references. Gross household income of three times the monthly rent is required. All lawful sources of income are considered,
including housing vouchers.
