Welcome to 12654 Ocean Gateway. Tucked along the peaceful stretch of Ocean Gateway, this inviting Eastern Shore home offers the easy charm of country living with the benefit of steady, thoughtful updates. Set on a wide, open parcel of land, the property carries the relaxed character of a well‑loved home, with a layout that feels welcoming from the moment you step inside. The interior was fully repainted in 2018, paired with refinished main‑level hardwoods and carpet that bring warmth and continuity to the living spaces. The main‑level primary bedroom features a walk‑in closet and a beautifully reconfigured en suite bath, renovated in 2025 with new wood flooring and a refreshed layout. Upstairs, a cozy bonus room provides flexible space for a TV lounge, game room, or quiet hideaway, complemented by an updated hall bath with wood flooring added in 2018. The home has seen a steady stream of practical improvements, including new windows (2018), a reverse osmosis system and water softener (2018), and a MT Vernon pellet stove installed in 2019 for efficient supplemental heat. Exterior updates completed in 2020—new siding, gutters, and a new roof—add long‑term value, while a new front entry door and rear sliding door were installed in 2024. A new bladder tank was added to the well house in 2020, supporting everyday functionality. Beyond the home itself, the property’s rural appeal shines through in its outbuildings, including a former mechanic shop rebuilt into a center‑aisle horse barn in 2020. The barn is equipped with 5 stalls (one of those being a large foaling stall), a tack & feed room, grooming stall and large storage area offering a versatile setup for equestrian or hobby farm use. With its blend of meaningful upgrades, lived‑in charm, and wide‑open surroundings, this property offers a comfortable lifestyle with room to make it your own.
