For Sale: A Chesapeake Bay Waterfront Home in Western Shores, Port Republic

Perched above the Chesapeake Bay in the Western Shores community of Port Republic, Calvert County, Maryland, this exceptional waterfront home offers sweeping views and a setting that feels like a retreat every single day. If you have been waiting for true Bay-front living in Southern Maryland, this is a rare opportunity.

 Waterfront Views and Thoughtful Upgrades in Calvert County

Set on more than an acre with over 200 feet of shoreline, this home blends natural beauty with smart, high-quality upgrades. Inside, more than 4,000 square feet of living space is designed to capture the water from nearly every angle. The main-level primary suite makes everyday living easy, and the kitchen opens to dining and living areas framed by the Bay beyond. A finished lower level with a full bath and bar area is ideal for entertaining or hosting guests.

Outside, the property truly shines. Professionally designed ornamental gardens surround the home, while a slate circular patio, paver terrace, firepit, screened porch, and expansive deck create the perfect spaces to gather. A shoreline revetment is already in place, and major systems have been upgraded for comfort and efficiency, including a geothermal HVAC system with three-zone climate control, whole-house water filtration, and Andersen picture windows that frame the view.

 Location: Bay Living With Easy Regional Access

Western Shores offers a peaceful waterfront lifestyle with the flexibility buyers love. There is no HOA, just a low-cost Civic Association, and short-term rentals are permitted, making this an ideal primary residence, second home, or income-producing investment. You are a short drive from Solomons Island, Prince Frederick, Annapolis, and Washington, D.C., with easy reach to Naval Air Station Patuxent River and Joint Base Andrews for commuting professionals. It really is the best of both worlds, a serene waterfront escape with access to everything you need.
