I often listen to Sondheim’s musicals while I work on my computer in the evening. Listening one night to “A Little Night Music”, the song “A Weekend in the Country” inspired me to search for a “country weekend” house and I discovered this 43-acre property.
A tree-lined gravel drive leads up to the brick house which dates from 1800. Its colonial style with its two-section telescope form has been popular throughout the Eastern Shore for over 200 years.
I could imagine being a guest and walking along the 690 feet of waterfront, enjoying the wildlife, or spending time on water activities along Langford Creek. Back inside the house I could easily spend a lazy summer day in the large sunroom with a favorite book.
