Description

Charming 5-Bedroom Retreat on the Water in Ocean Pines Welcome to 26 Alden Court, a spacious and versatile waterfront home tucked away inside the desirable South Gate of Ocean Pines. Perfectly positioned at the end of a peaceful cul-de-sac, this 5-bedroom, 4-bathroom property sits on an oversized lot and offers the rare combination of space, privacy, and natural beauty—making it ideal for year-round living, vacation getaways, or multi-generational use. From the moment you arrive, the curb appeal is evident with mature landscaping, paver walkways, and a large side and backyard offering plenty of room to relax, garden, or play. Step inside and you’ll find warm hardwood flooring, recessed lighting, and a pellet stove that adds both charm and efficiency. The layout is as functional as it is inviting, with an oversized laundry room and a converted 2-car garage that now serves as a versatile workshop and game room—perfect for hobbies, home projects, or entertaining guests. Upstairs, the private owner’s suite is a true sanctuary, featuring vaulted cathedral ceilings, a large walk-in closet, and a beautifully tiled walk-in shower. Step outside onto your private balcony and enjoy tranquil water views—an ideal spot for your morning coffee or a quiet evening unwind. Outdoor living is just as impressive, with a screened-in back porch that opens to a serene, natural setting. The backyard includes a koi pond (ready for a little TLC), a well-maintained storage shed, and a thoughtfully designed raised garden bed area that’s perfect for those with a green thumb. Whether you're cultivating vegetables, herbs, or flowers, this space is designed to inspire. Perhaps most unique of all is the property's waterfront access along the peaceful canal on the south side of the home. While the water here isn't suited for powerboats, it’s absolutely ideal for launching kayaks, canoes, stand-up paddleboards, or even casting a line for crabbing and fishing. With no immediate neighbor on that side—only water—you'll enjoy added privacy and a stronger connection to nature. Additional updates include a brand-new roof installed in 2025, providing peace of mind and long-term value. Whether you’re looking for a home with room to grow, space to entertain, or a connection to the outdoors, 26 Alden Court offers it all in one of Ocean Pines' most peaceful and scenic locations. Enjoy all the benefits of life in Ocean Pines, including multiple community pools, golf, parks, marinas, and access to the private beach club in Ocean City. This is more than a house—it’s a lifestyle waiting for you to step in and make it your own.

The Temperature chart displays average high and low values for January and July, and is designed to provide an indication of both seasonal and daily temperature variability. The Weather Risk Index indicates the calculated risk of each type of weather event occurring in the future. This risk is based on historical localized storm events and weather patterns. The national average for each type of weather event equals a score of 100, so a score of 200 would represent twice the risk as the national average, and a score of 50 would represent half the risk of the national average.
