Description
A dream come true -- Own a private island!!!
There aren't very many privately owned islands in the Chesapeake Bay. Most of them are far from the mainland (and electricity) making construction difficult and expensive. Of the few islands that are near the mainland, few meet today's strict regulations for septic systems and can't be built on. Starlings Island, nestled in Pocomoke Sound, a part of the Chesapeake Bay, is one of the exceptions. While it is mainly surrounded by open water and neighboring wetland islands, the mainland and all utilities are only 400 feet away in the quaint fishing village of Saxis. Perhaps most important of all, a Health Department approved septic system is already installed.
Believed to be between 75 to 90 acres in size, Starlings Island's unique location and proximity to the mainland make it an ideal location for a year round home or a vacation getaway. It offers unparalleled views of the Chesapeake Bay in one direction and thousands of acres of pristine marsh in the other. With the village of Saxis and all utilities only a stone's throw away, island living with all of life's conveniences is possible.
While the vast majority of the island is wetland and marsh, there are six or more acres that are solid with a wooded area and the ability to support a grass lawn. There are several options for a homesite location. Lots of wildlife including fox and deer.
Please visit StarlingsIsland.com for much more information.

2/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageThe school all together is well put together ever since we have received a new principal. Ever since he came along, we have gotten our acts together and are working harder on doing our best. I am a senior so this year is very stressful to me, but I have good guidance counselors and great principals and most of the teachers know how to teach well. There are some people in this school that make it seem like a bad school, but we have beaten the other schools with academics (for example, we are the only school on the eastern shore to make AVP) and some of our sports, so we can't obviously be the worst school.Student Review15y ago - Arcadia Middle School
