About This Home

22076 Napley Green Rd

Introducing Napley Green Farm, an extraordinary 808-acre waterfront estate on the renowned Chester River, an expansive tributary of the Chesapeake Bay, now available for purchase for the first time in nearly a century. This rare and iconic legacy property offers unmatched privacy, breathtaking natural beauty, and incredible recreational opportunities, making it one of the most significant estates on the East Coast. Spanning over seven miles of pristine shoreline, Napley Green features a diverse landscape including fertile farmlands, mature woodlands, and acres of ecologically rich marshlands and ponds. At the heart of the property is a grand 5,600 sq. ft. classic southern-style home with stunning views of the Chester River and Gray’s Inn Creek. The residence features spacious living areas, historic details, and a welcoming atmosphere perfect for entertaining. Additional structures include a waterside log home estimated to be from the 1600s, a caretaker house, a waterside pool, and a shop with a club room for gatherings. The estate also offers a scenic, tree-lined driveway, farm roads, and a 280-foot private dock for boating, fishing, and water-sports. Napley Green is a premier recreational retreat, especially for hunting enthusiasts. Its location along the Chesapeake Bay’s migratory routes offers outstanding waterfowl hunting, while Kent County’s renowned trophy deer and turkey populations add to its appeal. The diverse landscape of fields, forests, and wetlands teems with wildlife, making it ideal for both hunters and nature lovers. With no current conservation easement, the property presents significant investment potential through Maryland’s easement programs, likely offering tax benefits and financial incentives. Its fertile soils further enhance its value for farming, conservation, and sustainable land use. Situated within the Chester River Watershed and bordered by the 2,300-acre Eastern Neck Island National Wildlife Refuge and the 430-acre Chesapeake Bay Foundation property, Napley Green enjoys unparalleled ecological integrity and long-term protection from major development. Despite its serene, private setting, the estate offers remarkable convenience, located just two hours from Washington, D.C., Baltimore, and Philadelphia, and a short boat ride from nearby waterfront towns, including Annapolis, St. Michaels, Chestertown, and Rock Hall. The nearby village of Rock Hall, just two miles away, provides access to restaurants, shops, and cultural events, blending seclusion with accessibility. Napley Green is steeped in history, with its origins dating back nearly 8,000 years. In the late 1600s, it became Maryland’s second settlement and KentCounty’s first, home to the historic town of New Yarmouth. Acquired in 1929 by Eugene E. DuPont, Napley Green became a premier hunting and social destination, hosting gatherings and competitions throughout the 1930s and 1940s. The estate also saw Prohibition-era celebrations and was later transformed into a welcoming retreat for the entire DuPont family. Whether you are seeking a private retreat, a premier hunting estate, or a conservation investment, Napley Green Farm offers a truly unique opportunity to own an exceptional piece of Chesapeake Bay heritage. With its rich past, breathtaking natural beauty, and incredible potential for future generations, this is more than just a property—it is a rare chance to secure a legacy estate. Do not enter property without an approved appointment. This property is co-listed by Select Land and Homes Inc. & Monument Sotheby's International Realty.
