Imagine waking each morning to sweeping water as far as the eye can see. Set directly on the Magothy River, 965 Magothy Avenue captures more than 180 degrees of panoramic views stretching toward the Chesapeake Bay—a rare waterfront treasure in the heart of Arnold. Fully remodeled and offering 2,688 square feet, this four-bedroom, three-bath home embraces an open, airy floor plan made for both lively gatherings and quiet evenings by the water. Gleaming hardwood floors run throughout, while a gas fireplace adds warmth and ambiance to the main living space. At the center of it all, the gourmet kitchen shines with quartz countertops, stainless steel appliances, and a generous island perfect for casual meals and conversation. Step out to the screened porch to savor river breezes, or retreat upstairs to the primary suite, where a private balcony frames those unforgettable sunrises. Boating enthusiasts will love the private pier complete with a lift and slips, making waterfront living effortless. A two-car garage with extra storage handles all your gear, while community amenities—a boat ramp, clubhouse, and playground—enrich everyday life along the river. The location delivers the best of both worlds: just minutes from downtown Annapolis, City Dock, the U.S. Naval Academy, and Navy Stadium, with convenient access to Washington, D.C., and Baltimore. Waterfront homes of this caliber rarely come available. Experience life on the Magothy.
