What's special
Looking for quiet county living with room to spread out?? Looking for a deal?? This large 2.6-acre lot may have subdivision potential based on the sellers previous work put in to subdivide the property – see attachments for more details. The lot is located in the small town of Galestown, Maryland in Dorchester County but has a Seaford, Delaware mailing address. You’re just 20 miles from Salisbury, 23 miles from Cambridge, and 10-12 miles from tax free Seaford or Laurel, Delaware. You’re also located just 2 miles from the Cherry Beach Boat Ramp on the Nanticoke River!! This property really is centrally located on the Eastern Shore with convenient access to all things North, South, East & West by car or boat!! In attachments you’ll find a location drawing, a proposed subdivision drawing and a previous Soil/Site Evaluation done by Dorchester County. The sellers were in the process of getting approval from the town for the subdivision to two lots. At that time, the town requirements were that the dwelling be 1,200 SF or larger (including doublewides) & have a roof pitch of 5/12 or higher & that the dwelling must be on a block foundation. At one time there was also a mobile home on the property that has since been demolished. There is currently an old structure on the property that may need to be renovated or more likely, demolished. The lot is level, and partially wooded with 9 large walnut trees on the property. You could clear it out a bit or leave wooded to provide natural barriers from neighbors. Buyers should do due diligence on buildability, current ability to perk, ability to subdivide etc. SEE ATTACHMENTS FOR IMPORTANT DOCUMENTS. Contact info for the county and surveyors are on the attached documents. Being sold as-is.
