A waterfront estate in Huntingtown, Md., that belonged to the late novelist Tom Clancy is on the market at $6.2 million. His widow, Alexandra Marie Llewellyn, is the seller.

The contemporary home, built in 1989, contains seven bedrooms and seven bathrooms. A large library has a built-in ocean-view desk and floor-to-ceiling shelves accessed by ladders. Decks overlook the yard and the bay.
Attached and detached garages provide space for eight vehicles. A children’s play yard sits at the back of the house.
Clancy, who died in 2013 at 66, had 17 bestsellers. He was known for writing about Cold War era spies and military science. Several of his titles that were made into films, among them “The Hunt for Red October,” “Patriot Games” and “Clear and Present Danger.”
