April 11, 2023

Anne Arundel County, Maryland, has miles and miles of coastline along the Chesapeake Bay and its rivers, the perfect setting for many homes. You can find different types of water properties here, but one that stands out with some flexible and remarkable advantages is the water access property. What is water access property, and is it right for you?

What Is a Water Access Property?

Water access property is a residential property that gives you the rights to the local shoreline and use of the water itself. These rights are called riparian rights. Water access properties might have water access right in their backyard or a walk a-ways to a local community area. 

Benefits of a Water Access Property

Outdoor Activity Opportunities

When you buy a water access property, you also buy an outlet for many outdoor activity opportunities, and on the water at that! It opens up possibilities you might not otherwise have had in a state with so much water to enjoy.

Recreation on Land

If you are part of a water access community, the community area will likely have a playground, a pavilion, and other amenities. It is basically a park near the water. If you are raising a family, you could look for water access communities with these features.

Health Benefits

Spending time outdoors has a myriad of health benefits. It lets you get some much-needed vitamin D, improves mood, sleep, and immunity, and encourages you to be more physically active. Access to the water pulls you to gain these health benefits.

Potential Community Benefits

If you share a local beach, you have a greater likelihood of meeting new people and making friends. If you have a young family, your children could make new friends also. It is one way to find community.

Flexibility to Water Proximity

Some people might prefer to have water views and the shoreline right in their backyard. Others might want to be more inland and not mind doing without the water view. Water access property gives you that flexibility.
