Some houses are finished. This one is full of opportunity. Built circa 1920, this Victorian sits in one of Downtown Chestertown's most desirable neighborhoods — and it's waiting for someone who can see what it is meant to become. The hard work and the expensive work have already been done: new cedar siding, blown-in insulation, and original hardwood floors throughout. What remains is the fun part. The kitchen and baths are a genuine blank slate, ready for your design, your finishes, your vision. And the bones… remarkable. Solid construction, generous proportions, and historic detail at every turn — the kind of craftsmanship that simply isn't built anymore, and can't be bought back once it's gone. Start with a house of real character and your renovation adds value instead of merely keeping up. Upstairs, five generous bedroom and two full baths. A rare third-floor primary suite offers space and privacy set apart from the rest of the home — a true owner's retreat, a guest wing, or a quiet work-from-home floor of its own. Outside, a fully fenced backyard is ready for pets, play, and entertaining, a large shed could easily become a garage, studio, or workshop. The driveway provides off-street parking, a definite bonus for Chestertown. And the location is the whole point. You're roughly three blocks from everything Chestertown offers — the shops, restaurants and galleries along High Street, the Chester River waterfront, the farmers market, and the historic charm of one of the Eastern Shore's best-loved small towns. Bring your contractor, or be your own. Come see the possibility.

SELLER-PAID PERMANENT RATE BUYDOWN available on this brand-new home. The builder is buying down your interest rate — and the preferred lender is adding a credit toward closing costs — to put a significantly lower monthly payment within reach, saving you hundreds of dollars a month for the life of your loan. In a market where every point matters, this is a rare chance to own new construction at a payment that actually works. Quality finishes, modern systems, and a builder-backed warranty throughout. Buydown applies when financing with the preferred lender; contact agent for full details. Brand new construction in Chesapeake Landing, and the primary suite is on the main level — full bath, walk-in closet, no stairs at the end of the day. That one detail is what most buyers spend months searching for and rarely find at this price. Roughly 1,600 square feet, laid out so the main floor handles everything: an open living room, a kitchen with shaker cabinets, granite counters and stainless steel appliances, plus laundry and a half bath. Luxury vinyl plank runs throughout — the kind of floor that still looks right after wet boat shoes and muddy paws. Upstairs, two additional bedrooms share a full bath. Guests, an office, a hobby room — tucked away from the main living space so the first floor stays yours. The lot is a third of an acre with a private driveway, giving you real yard on all sides rather than a strip of grass between neighbors. Chesapeake Landing is a waterfront community with a clubhouse, walking trails and community water access. Membership in the community association is voluntary and carries a modest annual fee. Historic Chestertown — the shops, the restaurants, the riverfront — is a short drive away. Everything here is new. New systems, new surfaces, new appliances. Nothing deferred, nothing to renovate, nothing waiting to break in year two. Schedule your private tour today.
