About 971 Forest Dr

Welcome to 971 Forest Dr, your personal oasis perfectly situated just off the scenic Magothy River in Arnold. This remarkable property boasts two homes on the shores of Lake Placid, just a minute's boat ride from the mouth of the Magothy River. With the tranquil waters of Lake Placid providing a protective barrier, you truly get the best of both worlds. 125 feet of water frontage! The eastern-facing exposure gifts you with awe-inspiring sunrises, showcasing the natural beauty of the Chesapeake. As you relax on the back deck or dock, savoring a refreshing beverage or meal, you'll catch glimpses of the Magothy River. The creek offers more than just scenic views; it also shields you from the summer winds and bustling boat traffic of the Magothy River, ensuring a peaceful and undisturbed experience for you and your boats. Fishing and crabbing opportunities abound right off the dock! Lake Placid is an idyllic setting for an evening paddleboard or kayak ride, especially during the enchanting golden hour when the sun dips low. The serene ambiance of the creek is truly unmatched, creating an oasis of tranquility. This exceptional property features not one, but two homes! The main house is thoughtfully designed with four bedrooms and two full bathrooms, offering a cozy space and comfortable living for yourself and others to enjoy. This home provides the perfect canvas to personalize and create your own haven. The second home, built in 2019, is in excellent condition, providing modern comfort and costal accents, perfect for accommodating in-laws, family, or friends, offering a separate space while still allowing you privacy in the main house. Nestled on a .81-acre lot, fully fenced with a security gate, your privacy is assured. Don't forget about the renowned blue ribbon schools of the Broadneck Peninsula as well as the waterfront bars and crab houses that are staples of the area. Before departing, take note of the beautiful sandy community beach just 8 doors down from the house. Here you will find amenities such a boat ramp, grills, beach chairs, picnic tables, and unbeatable views of the river and Lake Placid. The opportunity for a waterfront lifestyle are abundant at 971 Forest Dr, and properties with two homes on the waterfront are a rare find.
