Waterfront charmer! This classic cape cod is a true gem located on a spacious waterfront lot in the quaint and historic Town of Denton. This well maintained residence offers timeless charm and modern comfort. As you enter, you'll be greeted by the home's original gleaming hardwood floors, which are beautifully complemented by abundant natural light. The large living room features a cozy wood burning fireplace and a built in bookshelf for showcasing your treasures. The kitchen features a generous pass - through to the knotty pine waterfront dining room and gives access to a back staircase, the basement and side entrance. The "River Room" adjoins the dining room and both of these rooms offer some of the best waterfront views from the house of the Choptank River. The River Room is a multi-purpose space that lends itself to a sunny den, a bright workspace, fun craft room or a relaxing spot to read a great book. At the end of the day, you can retire to your desirable first floor owner's bedroom with an adjacent full downstairs bath. Moving upstairs, you'll find three additional large bedrooms - all with lovingly maintained hard wood floors. There is a full bath to service these bedrooms and an additional space that could be a nursery, office or utilize it for your storage needs. If you need added storage, there is plenty of space in the attached oversized one car garage with floored attic and access stairs. Now let's head outside to the surprisingly large yard for hosting family gatherings and waterfront BBQ's. Follow a few steps down to the tranquil water's edge and launch your kayak or canoe to enjoy some time on the river! The home is in close proximity to historical downtown Denton shops, schools, library, restaurants and river boat launch. Conveniently located near major travel routes. Only 15 minutes to Easton, 30 minutes to the Bay Bridge and an hour to the beach. The seat of Caroline County, Denton is a vibrant community with a small town feeling. Don't miss your chance to call this home!
