Maison historique en bord de mer avec vue sur la baie de Chesapeake. Dort 9. Proche de la plage

Stunning view overlooking the Chesapeake Bay, and a quick 5 minute stroll to scenic Betterton Beach! This historic waterfront home offers everything you need for a relaxing vacation or family reunion.

Sit on the expansive porch with a cup of coffee and wait for eagle and osprey sightings, or just watch the ever-changing play of light and clouds as ships make their way up the Bay.

Cook meals in the fully appointed kitchen and enjoy family time in the adjacent dining room. Start a ballgame, set up a wading pool, or have a BBQ in the spacious backyard. The house can easily accommodate up to 9 adults and is equipped with fiber-optic wireless internet.

With this lovely old house on Bayside Boulevard as your home base, you'll be at the heart of Betterton, the "Jewel of the Chesapeake." Swim and sun at the beach, with its new bathhouse and outdoor shower. Take the kayak into the water, or take the kids up Main Street to enjoy the recently installed playground, with a splash pad.

Nearby towns of Chestertown, Galena, and Rock Hall offer great dining options, coffee shops, antique shopping, art galleries, and coastal culture. From Rock Hall you can charter a fishing boat, explore the Bay by sailboat, or pick up some steamed crabs to bring back and tuck into!

In the early 1900’s Buena Vista was a boarding house, where passengers who arrived on the ferry from Baltimore could stay while they vacationed in Betterton. She’s an old and creaky girl - over 100 years old, after all - but she's still gracious and comfortable, and ready to welcome you home!

NOTE: Buena Vista is a work in progress. We've updated the electrical system, and installed new AC/heat pumps upstairs and down, as well as a new washer and dryer. Carpeting has been replaced on the stairs and upstairs foyer and hall. In May '22 we remodeled the upstairs bathroom, adding a shower. We also added a half-bath to the Captain's Room. May '23 we stripped wallpaper and freshly painted two more bedrooms upstairs as well as the stairwell and upstairs hall. April '24 we installed a new refrigerator and dishwasher.

There is still old wallpaper in most rooms downstairs, and in one of the upstairs bedrooms. Much of it will eventually come down, but all living areas and bedrooms are comfortable and ready for you to enjoy.

Buena Vista is a grand old home and will provide you with plenty of room, quick and easy access to the beach, and of course that incomparable view!
