A rare piece of Chesapeake Bay history, this charming waterfront farmhouse blends 120+ years of character with thoughtful modern updates. Originally built in 1900, the Tippett Farmhouse sits on 2.4 level acres with 300 feet of shoreline, offering sweeping water views, abundant wildlife, and complete privacy at the end of a paved road—just 10 minutes from PAX River. Inside, you’ll find 3 bedrooms, 1.5 baths, and a blend of original craftsmanship and recent renovations. The home features original gorgeous pine wood floors in two water-facing bedrooms, custom Roman shades, original molding, exposed brick in the kitchen, and even what’s believed to be the original clawfoot tub. The kitchen remodel brought in a modern style with preserved charm. A propane line was run to the cooking stove under cabinets, so it would also be easy to upgrade to a gas cooking stove. Other updates include new windows, a new pellet stove in the living room, new flooring, and a new well installed in Fall 2024. Enjoy outdoor living on the large, screened porch with ceiling fans—perfect for relaxing or entertaining by the water. The fenced yard, doggie doors, deer-proof garden, chicken coop, greenhouse, and mature apple trees create a dream setting for those who love a self-sustaining lifestyle. Two wood stoves are in the detached garage/workshop, and a season’s worth of pellets and Adirondack chairs are ready to convey. There's also a 50amp hookup for a RV. This is a rare opportunity to own a Chesapeake Bay waterfront with acreage, a flat, usable lot, and a charming farmhouse for under $600,000. Whether you're looking for a full-time residence, a weekend retreat, or a place to live a little more intentionally, this property offers something truly special. BEING SOLD AS IS.

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
