About Edgewater

Edgewater sits directly across the South River Bridge (Route 2) from Annapolis, offering many of the same waterfront lifestyle benefits with generally more land and lower density. Housing spans from established waterfront enclaves along the South and Rhode Rivers to newer subdivisions set back from the water.

Lifestyle

Edgewater's identity is closely tied to the South River — boating, kayaking, and waterfront dining are part of everyday life — while still being close enough to Annapolis for downtown dinners or Naval Academy events without living inside the city's density.

Waterfront

The South and Rhode Rivers give Edgewater extensive waterfront and near-waterfront inventory, with numerous private docks, community piers, and marinas; the London Town waterfront area along the South River is a notable historic anchor point.

Relocating to Edgewater

Buyers who love the Annapolis waterfront lifestyle but want more land or a lower price point per square foot often cross the bridge to Edgewater. We help relocating buyers compare specific South River communities against comparable Annapolis-side neighborhoods on true door-to-door commute time, not just miles.
