Description
Welcome to the historic Solomon's Island home of J.C Lore. J.C. Lore and Sons of Solomons was one of the largest and most successful seafood packing companies in Southern Maryland. Founded by Joseph C. Lore Sr. at the height of the Chesapeake oyster industry in 1888, the company specialized in packing and shipping Patuxent River fish, crabs, and oysters. The Lore family and their descendants have owned the property since that time. This historic four bedroom, three bath home has been completely updated with recent renovations throughout, including new HVAC, plumbing, electric and finishes. The main level has ample room for entertaining and guests with formal living, dining and family rooms and a first floor primary bedroom suite. Three bedrooms and two additional baths complete the upper level. Two beautiful covered porches on the first and second floors are great spaces to dine or relax outside without fear of inclement weather. Water views abound from the south and west-facing rooms of the home overlooking easement-protected fields which cannot be developed. Subject to County approval, the adjoining buildable lot and detached three car garage could be expanded to include accessory dwelling units and/or a pool to create a multi-generational family compound or a multi-unit vacation rental complex with significant income potential. Renderings are accessible in the listing and are for inspirational purposes only. It's a short stroll to the center of Solomon's Island for shopping, dining and boating. Second home buyers take note; the stress-free to drive to Washington DC is just 90 minutes with no bridge traffic.
