5 Butternut Rd

Adorable waterman’s cottage in the quaint waterfront community of Sylvan Shores. This is one of the original summer homes, built for those on Capitol Hill in D.C. to escape the city’s summer heat. Sylvan Shores is a well-established community located on the South River, only 7 miles from downtown historic Annapolis. You are also minutes away from the Anne Arundel Medical Center, Annapolis Mall, Annapolis Towne Center at Parole, and the US Naval Academy & Stadium. The home is in a fantastic central location providing easy access to both D.C and Baltimore in just about 35 minutes. Settle in to enjoy the many amenities featured including 2 boat ramps, kayak storage, a boat pier with many affordable slips, a swimming pier, multiple private walking paths, a picnic area to enjoy with friends & family, a community clubhouse, and a baseball field. If you’re unfamiliar with the area you’ll want to check out the popular waterfront ‘Mike’s Restaurant & Crabhouse’ that’s a very short walk from the property. This is a community that you can truly call home! The property sits on a double lot and features an open floor plan with two oversized porches that are enclosed and located at the front and back of the home. The living space can easily accommodate 2 bedrooms and there is 1 full bathroom. New carpets were installed, but underneath remain the original heart pine hardwood floors. The home also features solid wood French windows throughout. The two lots have lovely, mature landscaping. The entire community recently received an upgrade to a completely new public water and sewer system now supplied by Anne Arundel County. This little cottage was much loved by the previous owner. It is of solid construction and sold as-is for your own creative ideas.
