What an opportunity to own almost 2 acres on public sewer in Shady Side Maryland. This super cute 1940's cottage offering 2 bedrooms and 1 bath with a detached garage has so many options for a buyer. Keep it the way it is and live the tiny house lifestyle or tear it down and build a new home for your family! Zoned R1 this will allow residential This District is generally intended for low-density suburban single-family detached residential development at a subdivision density of 1 dwelling unit per 40,000 square feet. Minimum lot size is 40,000 square feet. Maximum lot coverage by structures is 25%. Maximum height is 45 feet. Nice location with water access just a short distance away perfect for the water enthusiasts who want to fish etc. The solid garage is a great asset for the house and we have priced this one to move. Similar size homes have sold for almost $100k more in price. Being sold as-is yet it is in good condition. Settlement will need to be negotiated as the seller needs to coordinate with their new purchase.
