Four Seasons at Kent Island

Four Seasons at Kent Island is K. Hovnanian's luxury 55+ active adult community set along the shores of the Chester River and Macum Creek on Maryland's Chesapeake Bay. Construction started on the roughly 420-acre site in 2018, with plans for 1,079 residences — a mix of single-family homes and waterfront condominiums — served by a full-time lifestyle director and managed by FirstService Residential. The heart of community life is Chester House, a 24,000-square-foot waterfront clubhouse overlooking the Chesapeake. Inside you'll find an indoor lap pool, fitness center with cardio and strength equipment, library, card room, billiards, game room, demonstration kitchen for cooking events, and a grand ballroom used for everything from live music to holiday parties. Outside the clubhouse is a resort-style outdoor pool with a sun-drenched patio, a waterside tiki bar with sunset views, an open-air amphitheater, bocce courts, and multiple tennis and pickleball courts. Beyond the clubhouse, a 450-foot pier reaches out over the Chester River for fishing and boating, with a separate canoe and kayak launch tucked nearby. Walking and biking trails weave through greenspace, and a dog park keeps four-legged residents happy. Social life is rich — residents run walking clubs, yoga, Zumba, water aerobics, mahjong, pickleball leagues, sailing outings, book clubs, and regular dinners in town. Homes come from three single-family collections plus four waterfront condo buildings. The River Series offers three floor plans from 1,689 to 2,791 square feet with two to four bedrooms, two or three baths, and attached two-car garages. The Bay Series steps up with five plans from 2,002 to 3,218 square feet, two to five bedrooms, up to four-and-a-half baths, and two- or three-car garages. The Island Series is the largest collection, with six plans ranging 2,440 to 3,601 square feet and two to four bedrooms. The luxury condos offer three single-story floor plans up to 2,602 square feet with three bedrooms, 2.5 baths, one-car garages, and select plans featuring balconies or porches for water views. All are available in four designer-curated interior 'Looks' — Elements, Loft, Farmhouse, or Classic. The location is a genuine difference-maker. Kent Island is the largest island in the Chesapeake Bay, famous for seafood restaurants, two small recreational airports, and aquatic recreation. US-50 sits just to the south, putting Annapolis 17-18 miles away across the Bay Bridge, Baltimore about 40 miles west, Washington D.C. around 45 miles, and BWI Airport roughly 38 miles. The Kent Island Shopping Center and Kent Towne Market are less than a mile away, Queenstown Premium Outlets are within 10 minutes, and Terrapin Nature Park and several public beaches are minutes from the gate. Cascia Vineyards and Blackwater Distilling round out the local charm. For a community that feels like a waterfront vacation with easy access to three major East Coast cities, this one earns its 'Four Seasons' name.
