Welcome to 778 Snodgrass Road, a truly one-of-a-kind Crownsville retreat where nearly a century of history meets thoughtful design, modern luxury, and exceptional privacy. Tucked away on a quiet dead-end street in historic Herald Harbor, the story of this home began around 1930, when what is now the lower level reportedly served as a speakeasy. The main level was added in 1998, followed by the second floor and detached garage in 2008, creating the distinctive residence you see today. Beginning in 2020, the current owners undertook extensive improvements throughout the property, blending its unique history and character with the comfort and functionality of modern living. Today, the home offers more than 4,400 square feet with 5 bedrooms and 4.5 baths, two dedicated home offices, a playroom/library, and a finished lower level with a private guest suite. Generous living spaces, designer finishes, custom lighting, and a wood-burning fireplace make the home equally suited for everyday life, working from home, hosting overnight guests, or entertaining on a larger scale. At the heart of the home is a fully reimagined kitchen completed in 2021 and designed for both daily living and entertaining. Thoughtful updates throughout the home complement its character while creating a comfortable, turnkey living experience. Outside, the property feels like a private resort. Professionally designed grounds surround a heated saltwater pool with automatic cover, custom pergola, outdoor fireplace, multiple patios, expansive covered porch, and integrated landscape lighting. The detached three-car garage provides plenty of room for vehicles, storage, a home gym, or hobbies, while mature trees and protected woods create a remarkable sense of seclusion. The setting may be the home's greatest luxury. More than three-quarters of an acre across two parcels and eleven lots backs directly to protected Crownsville Conservancy property and Valentine Creek, with access to miles of wooded natural surroundings right from the backyard. During the clearer months, enjoy peaceful winter water views, while the waterfront itself is just a short stroll away. It is a rare combination of privacy, nature, and the laid-back waterfront character that has made Herald Harbor special for generations. The home has also benefited from substantial structural, mechanical, and cosmetic improvements, including Hardie Plank siding, the renovated kitchen, updated HVAC systems, upgraded 600-amp electrical service with a Level 2 EV charger, and a brand-new roof and newly paved driveway in 2026, along with numerous additional improvements throughout. Rich in history, surrounded by nature, and extensively updated for modern living, 778 Snodgrass Road offers something increasingly difficult to find: space, privacy, character, resort-style amenities, and a connection to the natural beauty and history of Herald Harbor, all in one remarkable property.

Some Places Witness History. Others Become Part of It. As America celebrates its 250th Anniversary, few properties offer the chance to own a tangible connection to the past. Tucked away on one of Maryland's most historic corridors, 1116 & 1118 Gumbottom Road encompasses nearly 45 acres of history, legend, and possibility. Once a farm and steeped in local lore with ties to Maryland's colonial and Revolutionary-era heritage, this is more than a home—it's a rare opportunity to become part of the American story. Set on a quiet no-through road, the property includes approximately 40 acres plus a separate 5-acre parcel with a 1997 perc test on file (county approval required; buyers to verify). Whether envisioned as a private estate, equestrian retreat, homestead/hobby farm, or multi-generational compound, the possibilities are as expansive as the landscape itself. Rolling pastures, mature trees, ATV trails, and multiple outbuildings—including a barn and former horse corral—create a setting that feels worlds away, yet remains convenient to Annapolis, Baltimore, Washington, D.C., golf courses, marinas, dining, and shopping. The thoughtfully updated farmhouse blends modern comfort with timeless character. Recent improvements include updates to the roof, barn, electrical and plumbing systems, flooring, paint, and bathrooms, preserving the home's charm while making it move-in ready.
