The ground level has a glass-door entrance at the front and a 2nd door leading to the waterside. There's a cozy 4th bedroom & full bath (shower) which is fairly wheelchair accessible (entrance is flush to ground level).
The driveway can hold 6-8 vehicles. Street parking is not allowed.
Chestnut Avenue ends at the Chesapeake Bay. From there, you can view the Bay Bridge & the Thomas Point lighthouse, but do not trespass.
Waterfront access is through the nearby community beach. See map in the VRBO listing photos
There is additional water access (swimming, fishing, and walking) via Chesapeake walk < 150 feet from the house between Linden Ave and Sycamore Ave.---Please take note of the "no trespass sign" affixed to a wooden post along chestnut ave at the edge of our property line. This sign was posted by our neighbor, Darryl. His property, with the small old historic home on it (immediately adjacent to the water) is private property, and should not be accessed. He appears to be very passionate about this, and will seek damages for verified trespassing incidents, which will have be passed on to our guests. Note - There are security cameras on his property.
Neighborhood amenities:
AOTB has a small community beach and a "Dinghy Dock" aka "The Linden Avenue Crabbing Pier". The Linden Avenue Recreational Pier may be used only for crabbing, fishing, sunning, swimming and other similar activities.
Pets:
Pets are welcome (pet fee applies) as long as they do not damage the furniture. Please, no pets on furniture or in the bedrooms. An effort to clean up shed fur should be made prior to checkout.
