Welcome to 165 Severn Way — a charming, fully reimagined 1935 Chesapeake cottage ideally located just a short walk to the community beach in the coveted Lower Pines of Pines on the Severn. Perched among the trees and filled with natural light, this charming home blends timeless coastal heritage with modern luxury, offering the perfect balance of character, comfort, and convenience.
Originally a 1930s bungalow, the home was completely transformed in 2021 into an open, airy, and thoughtfully designed living space. The renovation included a new layout, updated kitchen and baths, a finished lower level, and extensive exterior improvements. Inside, you’ll find beamed ceilings, reclaimed pine floors throughout all living spaces and bedrooms, custom reclaimed wood doors and millwork, quartz countertops, marble tile, frameless glass shower doors, custom cabinetry and vanities, and abundant recessed lighting that makes every room glow.
Designed for comfort and flexibility, the home features two full primary suites—ideal for empty nesters, couples, young families, or hosting guests with privacy. The chef’s kitchen anchors the bright living spaces, preserving the warmth and charm of the original cottage while elevating it with refined finishes and a sophisticated Chesapeake aesthetic.
The finished lower level adds approximately 500 square feet of versatile living space, perfect for a gym, media lounge, playroom, or additional guest area.
Outdoors, the property is equally impressive. Recent improvements include updated siding and trim, new gutters, soffit and fascia, a new front deck, expanded driveway with pebbled parking area, new fencing, and extensive tree work. Tiered landscaping surrounds a two-level stone patio with an exterior TV and water views—an exceptional setting for entertaining, grilling, morning coffee, or sunset cocktails overlooking Chase Creek and the Severn River.
Nestled into the cliffs of the Severn, Pines on the Severn is a classic, eclectic community originally designed for summertime living for those in DC and Baltimore. It’s an active community with long-standing traditions and this home is nestled between its best features: a short walk to the playground, tennis and pickleball courts, but an even shorter walk to the sandy beach and marina. Pool memberships are also available a short golf cart ride away.
This is a rare opportunity to own a beautifully restored historic bungalow in one of Arnold’s most desirable, walkable waterfront neighborhoods—where charm, craftsmanship, and lifestyle come together seamlessly.
