Waterfront Real Estate
With over 7,000 miles of shoreline in the Chesapeake Bay & its tributaries, many of our Central Maryland Counties are highly influenced by the waterfront lifestyle. Cecil, Harford, Baltimore and Anne Arundel Counties along with Baltimore City all have their own unique flavors of waterfront. Here’s a quick list of a few of the hot spots for those who love the water.
