About this House

Welcome to the Honey Hole of the South Creek! New roof & gutters freshly installed! Welcome to your own private waterfront retreat nestled at the peaceful head of South Creek, where breathtaking views, abundant wildlife, and the ultimate Chesapeake Bay lifestyle come together. Perfectly positioned on a beautifully level lot, this exceptional property offers a private pier ideal for launching a kayak, canoe, paddleboard, or boat, while the nearby community marina provides access to deep-water slips for larger vessels. Residents also enjoy access to the community beach, making every day feel like a vacation. An added bonus is the inclusion of the adjacent Lots 17 & 18 (4907 Thomas Drive), providing additional privacy, flexibility, and future possibilities. Step inside to discover a bright, open floor plan designed to maximize both the water views and natural light. The spacious kitchen features a center island, ample cabinetry, and a sunny breakfast area highlighted by a large picture window overlooking the creek—an unforgettable place to enjoy your morning coffee. The adjoining living room offers the warmth and charm of a wood-burning stove along with sliding glass doors leading to the expansive wraparound screened porch, creating the perfect space for indoor-outdoor entertaining or simply relaxing while watching osprey, herons, and other local wildlife. Upstairs, all three bedrooms are thoughtfully situated, including a spacious primary suite that serves as a true waterfront sanctuary. Wake up each morning to panoramic water views from your private balcony, then unwind in the en-suite bath featuring a walk-in closet and plenty of room to recharge after a day on the water. The additional bedrooms are generously sized, with one also enjoying beautiful water views, and are served by a second full bathroom on the upper level. This home has been thoughtfully updated for peace of mind and long-term enjoyment. Recent improvements include a brand-new roof (2026), renovated Tigerwood deck, and a professionally encapsulated crawlspace complete with a dehumidification system. If you’ve been dreaming of a waterfront lifestyle that combines privacy, natural beauty, and everyday comfort, this is a rare opportunity to own a special piece of Southern Anne Arundel County. Whether you’re boating, crabbing, kayaking, entertaining on the screened porch, or simply enjoying the peaceful creek views, you’ll quickly understand why this location is so special.

    "the bay is so close, and the neighborhood is perfect for our small family. bike rides are fun, and good schools we think! "
  • Julie F.
    "We have nice parks and water access, and boat slips. Neighbors are friendly and watch out for each other "
  • Renee B.
    " If you want to live in a country or water setting this is a great area for just that. It is a relatively easy commute into DC, Annapolis or Baltimore. If you want box stores forget it! it's all about keeping it local down here. Enjoy the diverse community of friendly people who like to kayak, fish, sail, bike ride, power boat, motorcycle, hunt, eat local crabs & oysters, the arts, history at Captain Avery Museum, ride horses and so much more!! I gave the traffic an Excellent rating compared to the congested surrounding areas, every now and then you might get behind a farmers tractor who usually pulls over to let you pass! Public Transportation, there is a Park & Ride 15min away that has an excellent commuter bus into DC. School buses yes. Senior Citizen busses available. Community Involvement - Small 4th of July Parade, Oyster Festival, and just some good old fashioned neighborhood get togethers. "
  • Elena H.
    "For a quaint existence on the water where waking up to the tranquility of birds singing and going to sleep following an uninhibited view of the night sky are your drivers, this bucolic neighborhood is perfect! Ideal neighborhood for the boating crowd and a weekend home. "
