Description

Rare protected harbor waterfront opportunity featuring approximately 300’ of shoreline, existing dock, bulkhead, and an existing ~3,412 sq ft building footprint positioned near the water—an increasingly difficult configuration to replicate under current Chesapeake Bay and waterfront regulations.

Former seafood processing and oyster facility. Under Lancaster County Article 12 (Nonconforming Uses), aquaculture, oyster houses, seafood processing, and similar uses are explicitly recognized and may continue despite discontinuation. Operation may resume within the existing structure(s), with expansion or additional commercial use subject to special exception approval.

Prior development efforts included engineered plans for dredging, bulkhead improvements, and expansion of slips, supporting the property’s viability for water-dependent commercial or marine use.

Navigable, protected harbor setting provides calm conditions for docking and vessel use, with brackish waters supporting both freshwater and saltwater fishing. Approximately 25 miles by water to the Chesapeake Bay.

Property is zoned R-3 with Waterfront Residential Overlay (W-1), which imposes significant limitations on new waterfront construction—further enhancing the value of the existing footprint and prior water-dependent use.

No mapped wetlands appear on the subject parcel per National Wetlands Inventory; buyer to verify. Property sold as-is. 3D tour available.
