"Magnolia Creek" is located on the Eastern Shore of Maryland in Salisbury.  Salisbury, Maryland is the largest city on the Eastern Shore of Maryland and the county seat of Wicomico County.  Salisbury is located at the head of the Wicomico River, the commercially navigable waterway that leads to the Chesapeake Bay.

The owners gave the home the name of "Magnolia Creek" because of its stately elegance like that of a southern plantation home and its location on a beautiful creek.

The premises address is 5776 N. Nithsdale Drive, Salisbury, MD 21801

The home is located in the premier subdivision of Nithsdale.  Nithsdale Community has numerous amenities to make you feel like you are living at the country club.  There is a children's playground, tennis courts, soccer fields, driving range and boat launching facilities. You can view the web site for the Nithsdale Homeowners Association.  They have an active Board of Directors and support an active community of residents.

You will be totally amazed as you view the wildlife from the windows of this home which is in a natural park-like setting. You will see deer, bald eagles, large woodpeckers, ducks swimming downstream, blue herons and as dusk draws near, hear the hooting of the large brown owl that lives near Magnolia Creek. The property is crossed by Rockawalkin Creek, a tidal creek which flows into the Wicomico River, a mile downstream. Occasionally we are visited by other wildlife in small boats and jet skis, but this is very infrequent. There is a small dock where you can launch your kayak or canoe for a quiet paddle among nature. You could even dock your jet ski if you desire an occasional faster journey.
