Property Description
Welcome to this charming Chesapeake Bay cottage at 526 James Avenue in the desirable Fairhaven community of Tracys Landing! Set on a rare half-acre lot just one block from the water, this classic waterfront retreat offers timeless coastal appeal and abundant outdoor living space. Inside, the bright, light-filled interior features beautiful hardwood floors, generous windows, and relaxed cottage character perfect for easy bay living. Recent major upgrades include a brand-new roof, a new chimney, a fully renovated bathroom, a professionally encapsulated crawl space, and a dehumidifier system, ensuring peace of mind and comfort for years to come. Step outside to enjoy multiple entertaining areas, including a spacious deck, screened porch, and a beautifully designed circular fire pit patio nestled in the trees.

The generous lot also offers ample off-street parking for up to four vehicles or even a boat. Located in the heart of Fairhaven, this home puts you moments from deep-water marinas (including Herrington Harbour), scenic bayfront boardwalks, waterfront dining, and the vibrant Chesapeake Bay lifestyle.
