The new owners of this unique waterfront property near Stevensville had been looking throughout the region for about two years. The wait proved to be worth it.
“We had looked at so many homes, with the goal of finding a property my clients could transition into over time, something they could enjoy after retirement,” buyer’s agent Mary Beth Paganelli says. “We were focused on waterfront properties with attractive, mature landscaping and this home was just the whole package. It was well-maintained, presented itself meticulously inside and out, and was the perfect size for my client.”
Originally built in 1980, the home is a split-foyer design with common areas and bedrooms on the main floor, and a large bedroom, office, laundry, and family room on the lower level. The kitchen is brightly lit by skylights as well as by picture windows with views to the exterior landscaping and water. Although a tidy size, it has every necessary amenity, including double-wall ovens. Black accessories are offset by dark countertops and sleek, contemporary-styled cabinetry.
The kitchen opens to a small informal dining room, a space that is defined by a row of windows that also overlook the trees and flowers outside. Just off the dining area are French doors that lead to a tranquil screened porch and deck overlooking Long Creek.
A wood stove anchors the living room. Perhaps the most stunning feature of this space is the natural light that comes in through a set of clerestory windows. All of the windows in the home are a high-tech, custom-build of German design. “The windows are engineered to open multiple ways, which contributed to the ambience of the incredible spaces in this home,” listing agent DeeDee McCracken says.
The exterior of the home resembles a beautiful park or resort. Mature trees shade quiet corners of the front and rear lawns. An inground swimming pool is situated to take advantage of water views from all sides. A path lined with large square pavers that match the contemporary style of the home leads to substantial waterfront footage and a pier with boat lifts.
“This home proves that a house doesn’t have to be large to be amazing,” McCracken says. “The sellers put a lot of thought into the design of the house and the quality of materials they used. The location, the quality, the owner’s thoughtful maintenance of the property, and the price all came together to make the sale of this home happen quickly with multiple offers.”
The water views from most rooms, custom details inside and out, oversized garage, and easy access to Route 50 were attractive features that made this home stand out. The property sold in just five days. “You know what you want when you see it and this is a case of the perfect home at the perfect time for the right buyer,” Paganelli says.
