Discover peaceful coastal charm in Chesapeake Beach, a delightful bayside community celebrated for its scenic Chesapeake Bay shores, beautiful beaches and boardwalks, laid-back beach town vibe with an emerging restaurant scene. This 3-bedroom, 2-bath split-level residence sits on a serene, wooded backyard lot overlooking Brookeside Dr. But don't let this split level home fool you... There are not 2, not 3, but 4 levels of potential living space in this home! Move right in and enjoy the top 3 levels and use the lower level basement for all of your storage needs, or finish the 4th level for instant sweat equity. The main level welcomes you with an expansive, light-filled open concept, highlighted by dramatic cathedral ceilings, with durable wide-plank laminate flooring. The kitchen is open to the dining area and offers a functional layout, with stainless steel appliances, a pantry and a breakfast bar for casual meals. Head upstairs to find generous secondary bedrooms, a full hallway bath, and the primary suite with a renovated bathroom with a tile shower. Downstairs, the finished lower level delivers a cozy, yet large, family room centered around a charming brick electric fireplace, along with a practical, oversized laundry area that opens directly to the exterior. A sizable unfinished basement provides excellent potential for customization—whether adding living space, a home office, gym, or simply maximizing storage. Step out back to a large wooden deck ideal for grilling, relaxing, and enjoying those gentle bay breezes, complemented by a recently installed roof and newer HVAC for peace of mind. Plus, enjoy effortless access to major commuter routes connecting to Washington, D.C., Northern Virginia, and nearby urban centers—making this the perfect blend of tranquil retreat and convenient location.
