A true Eastern Shore estate awaits the new homeowners of this sweeping property with its westerly Broad Creek views. Situated on nearly nine acres, this open-plan farmhouse-style home with its accompanying eight-stall horse barn, is an equestrian’s dream residence.
The property, appropriately known as Escape Farm, is just that—a world away from the stressors of everyday life with its large and welcoming front porch, perfect for rocking chairs and morning coffee, and its stunning surrounding pastoral beauty.
Inside, the home, which was totally updated with every conceivable amenity in 2020, offers expansive creek views from nearly every room. Using an appropriate mix of high-end, modern-day finishes with a rustic farmhouse aesthetic makes the home inviting and stylish. The open-floor plan makes this the perfect home for entertaining.
The kitchen, like the rest of the first floor, features honey-colored hardwoods underfoot. Dramatic, rustic black cabinetry blend beautifully with the room’s sleek stainless-steel appliances including a six-burner gas range. Charming, integrated pull-out basket storage, breakfast seating for eight, and a contrasting chestnut-colored island with granite countertop and seating for two, make the room fun and highly functional.
This kitchen area spills over into a formal dining room with fireplace and built-ins on one side and to an expansive great room with two distinct seating areas; one with fireside seating and the other with expansive water-facing views.
The home offers three main level bedrooms and three primary suites in total. Three additional bedrooms are located on the second floor, as well as a large, lovely lounge area with sliders that open onto the home’s expansive second floor balcony overlooking the creek.
The outdoors blend wonderfully well with the home’s interior space via a spacious screened-in patio overlooking the expansive backyard and out to Broad Creek. A waterside in-ground pool, and private pier combined with this property’s 2,700 square-foot horse barn with tack room, washroom, hayloft, and secluded backdrop, make it a great family escape indeed.
