    What's special

    Waterfront deckPrivate sandy beachCharming circle-top brick archwayStriking stone-wall backdropRedesigned kitchenOrnamental detailed railingOutdoor shower setup
    Exceptional all-brick contemporary waterfront home in sought-after Fort Howard, MD 21052 is ready to go for your private viewings. Offering breathtaking views of the Old Road Bay Inlet, Chesapeake Bay and Patapsco River, this unique property combines timeless character, incredible waterfront amenities and a location that feels like an Eastern Shore retreat while remaining remarkably convenient to Baltimore County and Baltimore City. From the street, a charming circle-top brick archway welcomes you to a relaxing, shaded covered front porch. Step inside and prepare to be impressed by a dramatic Two-Story Great Room, framed by vaulted wood ceilings with skylights, gleaming hardwood floors, and an ornamental detailed railing that overlooks the lower space featuring a striking stone-wall backdrop. The main level provides easy one-level living with a spacious Primary Bedroom and newly updated Primary Bath. Through a distinctive keyhole doorway, the redesigned kitchen offers 9'+ ceilings, tile backsplash, stone countertops, two sinks, white cabinetry, stainless-steel appliances and a double wall oven. A custom full-view double glass door with transom opens into the spectacular waterfront-side second Great Room, complete with vaulted ceiling, exposed wood beams, white built-in cabinetry and skylights overlooking the water. Step directly outside onto the waterfront deck and take in the views. The upper level offers two additional bedrooms and a full bathroom with custom-tiled shower. Outside is where this property truly comes alive! Outdoor enthusiasts will appreciate having so many recreational opportunities in their own backyard. A private sandy beach and sandy-bottom play area make it easy to put your feet in the sand, launch your kayak or paddleboard, or simply place a beach chair at the water's edge and watch the tide roll in. Enjoy swimming, fishing, crabbing, boating, kayaking, paddleboarding, sailboarding and water sports directly from your own waterfront oasis. The property includes an existing 140'+ pier with an entertaining platform, a new 15,000–18,000 lb. electric boat lift, 50amp Shore Power Electric Hook-Up, dedicated PWC/watercraft storage lift and two new sheds for all your boating and waterfront gear plus an outdoor shower setup to rinse off after a day on the water. A new vinyl corrugated bulkhead protects the shoreline while preserving the property's private beach access. And the views are something special! Watch commercial cruise liners, tall ships from around the world, worldwide commercial freighters and maritime and aeronautical traffic traveling in and out of Baltimore. Depending on the season and event schedule, you may even catch an air show featuring the Blue Angels overhead. Whether you're looking for a full-time residence, weekend retreat or waterfront getaway, this home delivers a lifestyle that is increasingly difficult to find along the Baltimore County shoreline. Enjoy spectacular, Key West-like sunsets and the blazing galaxy of stars and planets right from your own backyard. The location is equally impressive. Nestled between two outstanding parks, the community offers hiking, biking, fishing, abundant wildlife and fascinating local history. Fort Howard has an Eastern Shore feel while placing you just minutes from Tradepoint Atlantic, Edgemere, Sparrows Point, and I-695 and I-95, with convenient access to hospitals, downtown Baltimore, Canton, and the BWI/Anne Arundel County region. Skip the beach traffic and enjoy the waterfront lifestyle right here in Baltimore County! The property's elevation and gentle slope toward the water may offer potential advantages regarding flood insurance; buyers should independently verify flood-zone, insurance and permitting requirements. Waterfront inventory along the Baltimore County shoreline remains limited; don't miss this opportunity!
