Property Description
Set across approximately five acres in Anne Arundel County, 157 Woods Way presents a compelling opportunity at the intersection of history, land, and future potential.
Originally constructed in 1890, the farmhouse speaks to a bygone era, offering a foundation for those with the vision and commitment to restore it to its former character. The home requires significant rehabilitation and is best suited for a purchaser prepared to undertake a comprehensive restoration.
Equally, the property lends itself to redevelopment. With essential infrastructure already in place—including electric, well, septic, an in-ground pool, and a detached carport with workshop/storage—the groundwork has been laid for a new construction project without starting from raw land.
Zoned R-2, the offering may present subdivision or development potential, subject to county approvals. The scale, setting, and existing improvements combine to create a rare canvas for builders, developers, or end-users seeking to craft a legacy property.
Whether restored with intention or reimagined entirely, 157 Woods Way offers a distinctive opportunity to create something enduring in a highly desirable location.
Buyer to verify all zoning, land use, and development possibilities.
