Set in the heart of the quaint waterfront village of Galesville, 978 Galesville Road is a classic Colonial with two levels of front porches that feel made for slow mornings, evening conversations and watching the town go by. Inside, you’ll find a functional layout featuring four bedrooms, three full baths, and a main-level office that can easily serve as a fifth bedroom, guest room or playroom. Thoughtful updates are plentiful. Outside, the spacious .6-acre lot offers plenty of room to garden, gather, play and enjoy life outdoors. Best of all, you can leave the car at home and walk to Galesville’s waterfront restaurants, marinas, village shops, post office and the shores of the West River. It’s the kind of place where church bells still ring, neighbors gather for the town’s beloved Fourth of July parade, and dinner overlooking the water can be part of an ordinary evening. Quaint, welcoming and rich with maritime history, Galesville offers a way of life that feels increasingly hard to find.
