About This Property

More photos coming soon. Build your dream home on this rare +4.75-acre exclusive, private wooded homesite located in the highly sought-after Annapolis Preserve area—without HOA restrictions. The lot was previously perc approved (buyer to verify), offering an exceptional opportunity to bring a fully custom home vision to life. Surrounded by mature trees and natural privacy, this remarkable property offers seasonal views of the South River, creating a peaceful, nature-forward setting that feels secluded yet connected. The surrounding area is distinctly water-oriented, with nearby access to marinas, boat ramps, fishing piers, sandy beaches, and kayaking—embracing the Chesapeake Bay lifestyle that defines this region. Any home images or renderings shown are for illustrative purposes only, offering a vision of what may be possible on this exceptional homesite. Buyers are invited to bring their own builder to create a fully custom residence tailored to their lifestyle. Ideally located just minutes from downtown Annapolis, the property provides convenient access to historic charm, waterfront dining, shopping, the U.S. Naval Academy, and year-round cultural events. Commuters will appreciate the proximity to Washington, DC, Baltimore, Fort Meade, and NSA, making this an ideal balance of tranquility and accessibility. Pricing references, if provided, are conceptual estimates only and are based on an approximate 4,000 square foot custom home, informed by recent local build activity. All costs, designs, approvals, and lot use are subject to buyer verification. This is a rare opportunity to create a custom residence on a large, private parcel in one of Anne Arundel County’s most desirable corridors—where preserved natural surroundings, water-centric living, and the freedom to build converge.
