This hidden gem is returning to the market with major improvements & ready to become your custom dream home! 8802 Port Tobacco Rd consists of two parcels comprising nearly 3 acres, conveniently located just outside the La Plata town limits (enjoy the proximity to town without the town taxes). The home on this property was beautifully custom-built in 1972, but was since abandoned and fell into disrepair. Major improvements have recently been made to the home, including a complete new roof (including boards), new floor joists throughout the family room & kitchen, new garage doors, and a complete gut of the kitchen. Major renovation is still required, but much of the “heavy lifting” has been taken care of. The exterior of the house is all brick and features a large asphalt parking lot, two koi ponds, several large Japanese maples, and a second private driveway with a detached garage. The lower level of the structure was built as an office/place of business. It has been completely gutted, and the fallen-in roof was removed. It is now a cinderblock shell and would make a great guest house, in-law suite, home office, or extended living space. This property is very unique and has a ton of potential to be a magnificent home once again. *Please note that some drone photos were taken in September 2025 before the roof was replaced and improvements were made to the home.*
