...Exquisite Waterfront Retreat at 9520 Cropper Island Rd, Berlin, MD

Discover the epitome of tranquil living at this beautifully appointed 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom home, nestled just outside Berlin, Maryland – acclaimed as the #1 Best Small Town in America. Set on a generous 1.2-acre lot, this residence offers serene waterfront views of Porter Creek, which gracefully leads to New Port Bay, creating the perfect backdrop for kayaking, boating, and fishing enthusiasts. Conveniently located near the pristine beaches of Ocean City and Assateague Island, this home offers the rare combination of proximity to vibrant coastal destinations while providing a peaceful, nature-filled sanctuary. The meticulously landscaped grounds feature charming brick pathways that meander through the property, leading you to a picturesque waterfront retreat where you can savor breathtaking evening vistas. As you approach the home, you are greeted by a grand synthetic deck – both elegant and enduring – perfect for enjoying quiet mornings or hosting gatherings. The inviting front porch beckons you to relax in a rocking chair with a cup of coffee, or simply enjoy the serene surroundings. Upon entering the home, you’ll be captivated by a spacious foyer and the warm, inviting ambiance created by exquisite bourbon barrel white oak engineered hardwood floors, which flow seamlessly throughout the open-concept living space. Expansive 6-foot paradigm windows allow natural light to flood the home, highlighting the beauty of the surroundings. A custom stone fireplace, complete with a wood stove insert, serves as the focal point of the living room, offering both aesthetic appeal and energy efficiency. The chef’s kitchen is a true masterpiece, featuring bespoke cabinetry, top-tier stainless steel appliances, and a gas countertop stove. Custom quartz countertops, a large farmhouse sink, and an artfully designed pantry with built-in spice racks provide both functionality and elegance. The kitchen island is equipped with convenient USB ports, ensuring that technology is always within reach. Open shelving against an exposed brick wall adds a touch of rustic charm, perfect for showcasing décor and offering additional storage. Through a custom 36-inch all-glass door, you step onto the rear synthetic deck, featuring a privacy wall and a stunning knotty pine ceiling, offering a seamless connection to the beautifully landscaped backyard. Whether you’re hosting guests or simply unwinding in the quiet of nature, this outdoor space offers the perfect setting. A winding path leads down to the water’s edge, where towering trees and lush landscaping frame your very own slice of paradise. From here, you can launch a boat, enjoy an evening of fishing, or simply relax by the water as Porter Creek flows toward New Port Bay and Sinepuxent Bay – renowned for its boating and fishing opportunities. The outdoor space also features a brick smokeless fire pit, nestled on a custom patio – ideal for intimate gatherings or quiet evenings under the stars. Inside, the home’s bedrooms are generously sized and thoughtfully designed, each offering internet access, ceiling fans, and ample closet space. Elegant 3-panel solid wood doors complement the home’s refined aesthetic. The guest bathroom boasts a custom vanity with a chic vessel sink, while the master suite is a true retreat. Expansive windows provide captivating views, while the suite’s airy feel creates a peaceful haven. The master bath features a double vanity and a custom-tiled walk-in shower, offering both luxury and function. A spacious walk-in closet with custom shelving provides an abundance of storage. Additional features include a second-floor storage area, which could easily be converted into additional living space, as well as a Norweco septic system, a robust Amana HVAC system, and plentiful storage under the rear porch. This beautiful home has plenty more upgrades!
