Mayo, MD Real Estate

 

Located in highly desirable Anne Arundel County, the former beachfront resort town of Mayo is now a bedroom community for people who live and work in the major metropolitan areas of Washington DC, Baltimore, and Annapolis. Situated on a peninsula surrounded on three sides by scenic waters, this fantastic waterfront community overlooking the Chesapeake Bay is nicknamed the "Land of Pleasant Living". Mayo was named after Commodore Isaac Mayo, a naval war hero whose estate was located on the grounds of the modern town. Mayo's Gresham Estate, now a private residence, is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.

Boating is a way of life in Mayo, making it a great choice for prospective buyers looking to enjoy a maritime lifestyle. In fact, boating is so popular, some people even live on floating residences or houseboats. Nevertheless, the majority of residents simply enjoy the beauty of the Chesapeake Bay from their water view homes. Homes have traditionally styled exteriors, with wood or vinyl siding and shuttered windows. Although the homes in Mayo are lovely, the most important thing to buyers in Mayo are the expansive beaches and stunning view.

Mayo's most populous and well-known neighbor, Annapolis, serves not only as Maryland's political hub, but holds a booming business district and several well-known Universities. Students from all over the world flock to Annapolis to attend the prestigious US Naval Academy and St. John's College, the third oldest college in America. Each of the institutions' picturesque campuses enhance the overall beauty of this culturally diverse community rich with tradition and history and their student populations contribute to a burgeoning cultural scene.

While artistic institutions like the Maryland Hall for the Arts continue to be delight the public with their semi annual symphonies, ballets, and theatrical productions, Annapolis' main attraction has long been its quaint shopping district, which frames the breathtaking harbor of the bay. Packed with high end boutiques, art galleries, and gourmet restaurants, downtown Annapolis is the perfect place to bring your family for a day of excitement.

With close proximity to the metropolitan areas of Baltimore and Washington, DC, strong public and private schools, and scenic maritime climate, Mayo is an ideal home for anyone looking to enjoy a vacation community year round. With prices averaging $349,900, Mayo is significantly more affordable than neighboring Annapolis and offers a relaxing beach lifestyle close to all of the conveniences of urban life.
