Tucked away on a quiet cul-de-sac in the Mariners Landing neighborhood of Chic’s Beach is a townhouse that proves the old adage of there being “more than meets the eye.”
Built in 1981, this townhouse on Mystic Cove Court offers a surprising 2,166 square feet, as well as a sizeable front and side yard and a fenced backyard.
“It’s all about location, location, location,” said Ben Ritger, associate broker with Atkinson Reality. “It’s close to the Lesner Bridge and the Chesapeake Bay, but there’s also the size of the home with the mini-barn, and the fact that as an end unit it’s almost a separate home.”
Ritger said the townhouse has been well maintained, as have the other townhomes in the neighborhood.
Currently featuring three bedrooms, a sitting room could easily be used as a fourth. There are two full baths — one being a private bath in the master bedroom — and a half bath.
The living room is large and well-lit by both windows and skylights. There’s also a wood-burning fireplace that adds charm and warmth. The large master bedroom is on the ground floor, as are the kitchen, dining room, laundry room, sitting room, and the half-bath.
Upstairs are two bedrooms, a full bath, storage space, and a loft overlooking the living space below. From the third bedroom, which is currently being used as a home office, there’s access to a small balcony overlooking the front of the property.
Central air keeps the house cool, while during cooler weather a heat pump helps the fireplace with warming.
Outside, the mini-barn doubles as storage and a workshop, and there’s a driveway for off-street parking.
Two military bases are also nearby.
“It’s within walking distance of one of the world’s great bodies of water, it’s just a few minutes from a recreation center, a five-minute bike ride from a park for family activities, and then there’s all of the shopping and eating nearby,” said Ritger.
The home is served by Thoroughgood Elementary, Great Neck Middle School, and Frank W. Cox High School.
