Twelve-hundred feet of prime Eastern Shore waterfront. We could probably just stop there, but why, when there is so much more? Located just minutes from St. Michaels and at the confluence of Broad Creek to the south and Grace Creek to the west, this 8,500-square-foot family compound offers an unparalleled retreat experience.
The main home, built in 1958, is spacious and more-than-gracious for entertaining. Its extended, ranch style, shows beautifully with warm, hardwood floors and an entry that flows through to a gorgeous set of French doors with sidelight panels offering generous views to the spacious, brick paver patio with pergola, and its panoramic waterfront views. The center hall entry is also highlighted with a rich, wood beam treatment above, and a wood-burning, Federal-style fireplace.
To the left of the entry is a large, light and bright formal living room with a huge Bay window for peaceful creek views, charming built-ins, and more rich wood beams overhead. The spacious formal dining room is another large space accented with five, generous casement windows overlooking the water, chair rail, crown molding, and glass-front built-ins for china storage.
A precious, light-filled, all-white kitchen with wood beams offers great views from a set of French doors near the breakfast nook area, a center island with cooktop, stainless steel double-wall ovens, and integrated appliances.
The home has a huge family room with lots of natural light, a wall of collector’s built-in display shelving, and hardwood floors.
A spacious owner’s suite is perfected with an entirely separate, walk-in owner’s closet with tons of drawers and hanging space for an ample wardrobe, and an all-white and bright owner’s bathroom suite. Another bedroom is located in the main house, along with a den, game room, and office.
Additional guests and extended family are easily accommodated in the property’s outbuildings, which include a one-bedroom guest cottage, and a large studio apartment over the four-car garage.
Other amenities include an in-ground waterside pool, private dock, private boat ramp, a greenhouse, workshop, and of course, a private pier and water access to the creeks and beyond.
“This property is situated with breathtaking nine-mile, southern views out Broad Creek all the way to the Choptank River,” says Seller’s Agent, Larry Brennan. “You can enjoy sunrises and sunsets over the water. It’s just a spectacular property.”
