 In Search of Main Level Living - Solomons, MD  20688 - One of the biggest requests I am seeing from buyers in the Solomons/Solomons area market is the first floor owners’ suite. This is most requested by those seeking waterfront/water privileged properties for those considering retirement options who have always wanted to live on the water. Also main level bedrooms with baths are requested by those who are moving to the area to retire, for example, to be close to family in the metro area. A first floor bedroom can also be a great option for a family with older children where the parents would like to have a more private space. Solomons, MD is a great option being considered for buyers looking down the road to retirement, those who aspire to a waterfront lifestyle that is manageable in ...
