23777 Locust Ln, Your Chance to Own a Piece of Whitehaven History! Step into the charm of historic Whitehaven with this one-of-a-kind waterfront property. Once part of the Whitehaven shipbuilding grounds, the property still holds remnants of its past, including the original ship pulley and rail system—an incredible nod to the town’s rich history. Founded in the 1600s, Whitehaven is one of the oldest towns in Maryland and is steeped in maritime tradition. Known for its shipyards, ferry crossing, and role as a trading hub on the Wicomico River, this quaint village has retained much of its historic character. The Whitehaven Ferry, one of the oldest continuously operating ferries in the country, is still in service just down the road, connecting this timeless community to the world beyond.

Inside, you’ll find an open-concept living space designed to capture the beauty of the water at every turn. The renovated kitchen shines with crisp white cabinetry, quartz countertops, a spacious island with a deep sink looking out to the river, a pot-filler faucet over the range, and top-of-the-line Viking appliances. Wide-plank LVP flooring flows throughout, complementing the soaring ceilings and paddle fans in the living room. The primary suite is a retreat of its own with high ceilings, sweeping views of the Wicomico River, and an attached primary bathroom with a gorgeous tile shower and a walk-in closet. A second bedroom and full bath are also located on the main level. Upstairs, the loft with its wraparound staircase offers a flexible bonus space—perfect for a home office, studio, or lounge. Additional upgrades include Choptank Fiber for High Speed Internet, a full-house water treatment system, a Rinnai gas hot water heater providing endless hot water, spray foam insulation under the home and a new heat pump ensuring modern efficiency year-round.

Outdoor living is equally impressive with a new Trex rear porch where you can watch boats drift by. The property also includes a huge 4-car garage, ideal for vehicles, watercraft, or ATVs. For the boating and outdoor enthusiast, the deep-water dock with 4 boat slips is a rare find—perfect for fishing, crabbing, kayaking, or launching your next river adventure. The property spans 3 acres and includes an oyster creek running through it, adding even more natural beauty. Surrounded by wildlife and tranquil water views, this home offers a peaceful escape while still being just a short drive from Salisbury’s shopping, dining, and cultural amenities.

Best of all, this unique property is priced below its recent appraised value—an exceptional opportunity to own both history and modern luxury in one.
