Four Seasons at Kent Island sits on Chesapeake Bay in Chester, Maryland, offering an active adult 55+ community with new single-family homes and waterfront condominiums, so you get that island-living all on Kent Island, which is the biggest island in the bay, and you'll find both nature and modern comforts there. Homes offer real practical features like two-car garages with extra storage, open great rooms that lead out to covered patios, and stylish kitchens with big islands and lots of cabinet space, and some condos have porches or balconies for beautiful water views that are nice at sunset. Some floorplans have a private bedroom just off the foyer for guests, a formal dining room for family dinners, a big loft upstairs with extra bedrooms and a full bath, and the primary suites are pretty roomy with triple windows, big walk-in closets, split vanities, and in some cases, a big freestanding tub option if that's something you want. You can pick from the Loft, Farmhouse, Classic, or Elements interior design looks, and some homes have up to 2,602 square feet with three bedrooms, two and a half baths, and a one-car garage, so there are several choices for size and style.
The property is about 420 acres with walking and biking trails running through greenspaces and next to water, including direct access to the seven-mile Cross Island Trail, which is good for folks who like long walks or bike rides with nice views. There's a 450-foot fishing pier on the Chester River and a kayak and canoe launch, so residents can get on the water pretty easily, and there's also a dog park for pets to play and meet others. For daily needs and social life, there's the Chester House, a large 24,000-square-foot clubhouse with an indoor lap pool, a resort-style outdoor pool, a fitness center with both cardio and strength equipment, tennis and pickleball courts, bocce courts, game and library rooms, and a formal gathering room with a fire pit, tiki bar, outdoor bar, reception desk, and even a demonstration kitchen for cooking events. Residents use the open-air amphitheater for events, and there's a full-time activities and lifestyle director who plans things like book clubs, yoga classes, water aerobics, sailing, dinners in town, and other year-round social gatherings, so there's always something happening if you want to join in. Maintenance-free living is offered, so homeowners don't worry much about yard work or repairs, and the community also provides a sense of space for those who enjoy nearby walking paths, greenspaces, or relaxing by the water.
Prices for homes start in the upper $400,000 range, going up as high as the mid-$700,000s depending on chosen plan and location. Four Seasons at Kent Island is developed by K. Hovnanian's Four Seasons at Kent Island III, LLC, and aims to let active adults enjoy island living with both quiet and activity nearby, plus the option for more social life if that's what you're after, all located close to the water, nature parks, and the Chesapeake wine country with local vineyards right nearby.
