About this House

This authentic rustic cabin in the highly sought-after Scientist Cliffs community offers a rare blend of historic soul and is a quiet, serene sanctuary perched above the Chesapeake Bay! From the moment you step onto the rich hardwood floors, the frantic pace of the outside world fades away, replaced by the crackle of the stone wood-burning fireplace and the shimmer of the water. The main level has plenty of natural light, which captures the shimmering beauty of the Bay! The open-concept living space is anchored by masterful stonework, creating an inviting atmosphere for reflective mornings or cozy evenings. The partially finished basement provides a versatile flex space—perfect for a quiet home office, art studio, extra storage—ensuring the home evolves with your needs. Step outside to immerse yourself in the preserved beauty of the American Chestnut Land Trust (ACLT). With 26 miles of hiking trails and direct bay access for morning kayak sessions, nature is your primary amenity. Scientists’ Cliffs is celebrated for its natural beauty and rich heritage, offering a lifestyle defined by the rhythms of the bay and the surrounding forest. Spend your days by the swimming pool, on the pickleball and tennis courts, or at the community beach featuring a private boat ramp. The historic Community House and Chestnut Cabin serve as the pulse of the neighborhood, hosting a vibrant calendar of social events and summer programming!

    "We have enjoyed living in Calvert County for 25 years; however it's time to retire and sadly move on. Calvert has many wonderful parks and waterways (Chesapeake Bay, Patuxent River and Creeks), marinas, beaches, wildlife/nature, nature museums - lots of things to do for singles, couples or family with children - lots of activities. And great restaurants (especially seafood) concerts, fairs and festivals, community college, pick-your-own farms, and vegetable stands."
