It is increasingly difficult to find nearly 19 acres this close to Deep Creek Lake—especially property offering eight approved perc sites and the possibility of creating up to eight homesites, subject to applicable governmental and subdivision approvals.

A Rare Deep Creek Lake Land Opportunity

The property’s size and location provide flexibility for several potential uses. A buyer could envision a private estate surrounded by wooded acreage, a luxury mountain retreat, or a thoughtfully planned residential community.

  • Potential for up to eight homesites, subject to applicable approvals
  • Peaceful and private setting

This combination of acreage and convenience makes the property suitable for buyers seeking room to create something special without being far removed from the lake-area lifestyle.

And the Neighbors Are Pretty Good, Too

I may be slightly biased about this location because I also live on Boy Scout Road!

Whoever purchases this property will not only be gaining a rare piece of land in an exceptional Deep Creek Lake location—they will also become my neighbor. I can personally attest that it is a wonderful area to call home.

Explore 18.87 Acres on Boy Scout Road

Properties offering this much acreage in such a convenient Deep Creek Lake location rarely become available. If you are searching for land for a private estate, mountain retreat, or possible future residential development, this property deserves your consideration.

Just Sold at Full Asking Price: 1142 Limpopo Drive Near Deep Creek Lake

We are excited to announce the successful sale of 1142 Limpopo Drive in McHenry, Maryland, for the full asking price of $519,900.

This beautifully remodeled mountain retreat attracted immediate attention, going under contract after only one day on the market before proceeding to a successful closing. The Bell | Fenton Team represented the sellers in this transaction, and we are sincerely grateful that they trusted us to guide them through such an important sale.

A Private Mountain Retreat Near Deep Creek Lake

Tucked among the trees on approximately 3.61 private acres, 1142 Limpopo Drive offered the privacy of a secluded mountain getaway while remaining just minutes from Deep Creek Lake, Wisp Resort and the area’s year-round attractions.

The three-bedroom, two-bath cabin blended rustic mountain character with an extensive collection of recent improvements. Its open living area was anchored by a wood-burning fireplace, creating an inviting place to gather after a day at the lake or on the slopes.

Additional interior highlights included a spacious kitchen with a coffee bar, remodeled bathrooms, new flooring, fresh paint, updated countertops, new appliances and thoughtfully arranged living spaces.

Designed for Enjoying the Deep Creek Lifestyle

Outdoor living was one of the property’s most appealing features. Multiple gated decks overlooked the surrounding forest, while a seven-person hot tub, fire pit and hammocks provided plenty of ways to relax and enjoy the peaceful wooded setting.

The home also offered established vacation-rental history, making it attractive to buyers searching for a personal retreat with potential income-producing benefits.

Its combination of privacy, recent improvements, mountain atmosphere and convenient location helped this special property stand out—and buyers responded quickly.

Another Successful Deep Creek Lake Sale

Receiving a full-price offer and going under contract in only one day is an exciting result, but every successful sale begins well before a property reaches the market. Thoughtful preparation, strategic pricing, professional presentation and focused marketing all play an important role in attracting qualified buyers.

Most importantly, we want to thank our sellers for choosing the Bell | Fenton Team to represent them. Helping clients navigate a major transition is a responsibility we never take lightly, and we are grateful for the confidence they placed in us.
