5711 Waterside Drive, Berlin, MD 21811

Property Description

Most waterfront properties give you a view. This one gives you an entire Peninsula. Set on 6.39 private acres in the prestigious South Point Farms community, this extraordinary waterfront estate offers more than 700 feet of direct bayfront and a setting that feels worlds away from everything, yet minutes from the best of the Eastern Shore. Properties like this are not simply waterfront. They are surrounded by it. From its rare peninsula-style position, the estate captures sweeping, unobstructed water views in nearly every direction. Sunrises over the bay. Evening light reflecting across open water. Quiet mornings where the only sound is the tide moving along the shoreline. The custom built property was designed to blur the line between indoor comfort and outdoor living. Anchoring the estate is a 4,165 square foot main residence, thoughtfully positioned to take full advantage of the panoramic waterviews and endless skyline. Inside, nearly every room faces the bay. Soaring ceilings frame a grand great room with a traditional fireplace, while the chef’s kitchen, dining area, and sitting spaces flow naturally toward the surrounding decks and water views. The main-home offers four bedrooms, four and a half baths, two dedicated home offices, and multiple gathering spaces designed for both everyday living and large waterfront entertaining. Step outside and the experience continues. IPE Brazilian hardwood decks stretch along the waterfront side of the home, creating an ideal setting for sunset dinners, crab feasts, and long summer evenings overlooking the bay. A thoughtfully placed bay-facing 'bonus' garage provides convenient storage for boating gear, waterfront equipment or a perfect place for a home gym. Just steps away from the main-house is the 1,619 square foot guest-home, creating a private retreat for visiting family and friends. Two bedrooms, a full bath with sauna, a vaulted wood ceiling family room with fireplace, and a professional-grade kitchen allow guests to settle in comfortably for extended stays. The guest house overlooks the estate’s 50' x 24' bay-facing in-ground pool, where wide water views become the perfect backdrop for both relaxing and entertaining. A fully conditioned oversized-garage and game room adds another layer of entertainment space and is attached to the back of the guest house. For boaters, the waterfront infrastructure is equally impressive. A 250 foot private pier extends into the bay, providing quick access to open water, with more than enough room for your boat and your wave-runners. More than 700 feet of newly installed rip-rap shoreline protects the property while preserving its natural beauty. The grounds themselves are as memorable as the waterfront. Professionally landscaped acreage surrounds the home, highlighted by a half-acre deep-water pond, expansive lawn areas, and a circular drive that creates a grand yet welcoming arrival. And while the estate feels remarkably private, the location keeps you connected to the region’s most celebrated destinations. Assateague Island National Seashore is just minutes away, offering protected beaches, wild ponies, and miles of untouched coastline. The shops, restaurants, and charm of Historic Downtown Berlin, consistently ranked among America’s best small towns, are nearby. And when you want the energy of the coast, the beaches, boardwalk, and marinas of Ocean City are only a short drive away. Waterfront estates of this scale, privacy, and peninsula positioning rarely become available in Worcester County, or anywhere on Marylands Eastern Shore. Especially not with this combination of acreage, infrastructure, and proximity to the coast. For those who understand what a property like this represents, it is more than a home. It is a legacy waterfront setting that simply cannot be recreated.
