Oxford, Maryland homes date back to the 18th and 19th centuries and all of them are within minutes of the water. Welcome to one of the Old Line State’s oldest towns. Lying on the banks of the Tred Avon River just before it mingles with the waters of the Chesapeake, Oxford is located around 15 minutes south of Easton and about half an hour south of St. Michaels Real Estate.
A small town in all the senses of the word, Oxford’s total area is less than a mile, and more than 30 percent of it is water. What’s more, according to the most recent U.S. Census Bureau estimates, the town has less than 800 residents. Folks in Oxford like their town the way it is and when you’ve spent even just a few hours in the neighborhood, you’ll like it too.
Oxford’s quiet, friendly and gracious atmosphere is a balm to weary spirits. This is only one of the many reasons why Oxford, Maryland homes appeal particularly to urbanites from across the Chesapeake in search of a place to help them unwind and detoxify.
As a whole, things are quieter and the pace is more relaxed on the Eastern Shore. Oxford, however, is especially tranquil and has a secluded quality that many of the more touristy towns in the region no longer have. With its many Colonial and Victorian-era homes, its tree-shaded streets and its general air of gentility, Oxford has the look and feel of an ideal community from a much simpler time.
