The area is aptly known as the heart and soul of the Chesapeake Bay, and still retains the look and feel of a 19th century seaport.

To experience the beautiful waterfront living, the home should also include several waterfront acres with boat slips. Fallon and his family would undoubtedly enjoy the views of St. Michaels Harbor and walks to the charming shops and restaurants nearby.
