The lifestyle of the boating enthusiast is what this immaculate cedar shake stunner is all about. Nearly 6,000 square-feet of interior living space combines with a lush and tranquil outdoor landscape to provide the prime jumping off point for adventures in and around Annapolis waterways.
Keen siting on a one-acre lot located in the prestigious community of The Downs gives this home excellent elevation, creating great water views of the Severn River and the opportunity to personalize the grounds with garden terraces and attractive hardscaping.
The front entry is impressive with its stone walk-up, handsome, wood double doors, leaded pane sidelights, and transom windows above. Inside, gleaming pecan-colored hardwoods have the benefit of abundant natural light from the home’s many large windows throughout. The foyer leads into the home’s gracious living room with its attractive accent wall of stone and stately stone fireplace front. A coffered ceiling above adds to the room’s classic wood treatments. There’s a huge formal dining room adjacent with incredible views out to the river.
An ivory-white gourmet kitchen offers tons of custom cabinets and numerous upscale features, such as stainless-steel appliances including a double oven and wine fridge. There’s also a gourmet gas cooktop located in a granite-topped center island and lovely accent cabinetry with glass fronts. A charming breakfast nook offers tree-top views and easy access to the home’s large, screened-in porch via glass sliding doors. This room also features breakfast bar seating overlooking a large family room with an attractive corner gas fireplace and more sliders to the screened-in porch on the riverside.

The main level of this home offers the first of six bedrooms and a convenient en suite bath. The primary bedroom features its own bath with a large soaking tib and dual vanities, two huge walk-in closets, and a cedar closet. The level also provides an enormous waterside bonus room, and a large home office with extended seating area.
The home’s lower-level features three large bedrooms, a recreation room, and a billiard room. This residence’s primary recreational feature, however, has to be its outstanding water access to 12-feet of mean low water and a property that boasts three boat slips, a 25,000-pound boat lift, a 6,000-pound boat lift, and a floating dock. The new homeowners will also enjoy 1,000 meters of protected, calm waters ideal for rowing a shell, a rare find among waterfront properties.
