About 11260 Acker Rd
WATERFRONT! WATERFRONT! Welcome to the renowned "Acker House," one of the most distinctive and cherished historic homes in the Cobb Neck/Newburg area. Originally built in 1870, this beautifully updated farmhouse sits on approximately 1 private waterfront acre along the Potomac River, offering breathtaking panoramic views, peaceful surroundings, and timeless character.
The inviting wraparound screened porch is the perfect place to enjoy your morning coffee, entertain family and friends, or simply unwind while taking in the tranquil waterfront setting and gentle river breezes.
Thoughtfully expanded and renovated in 2015, the home evolved from its original 2-bedroom, 1-bath farmhouse into a spacious 3-bedroom, 2-bath residence that blends historic charm with modern convenience. The renovation added a welcoming eat-in kitchen, a home office, and a main-level half bath, creating a functional layout ideal for today's lifestyle while preserving the home's unique character.
Step outside to discover your own private waterfront retreat. The property features an expansive garden, two producing grapevines, mature walnut trees that provide natural shade, and a spacious deck overlooking the Potomac River. A 75-foot private pier with two boat lifts/slips offers exceptional opportunities for boating, fishing, kayaking, or simply enjoying life on the water. During low tide, a charming natural beach emerges, adding yet another unique feature to this extraordinary property.
Whether you're searching for a full-time waterfront residence, a weekend escape, or a piece of Southern Maryland history, the Acker House offers a rare opportunity to own a truly special property where historic character, modern updates, and waterfront living come together in perfect harmony. (***Please note the 2-story 2-car garage is not included in the rental property)
