Situated on Solitude Creek and boasting 360 feet of water frontage, this stunning estate is an absolute gem. An innovative design and unique elements make the property stand out from other houses on the market. This one-of-a-kind colonial home is an architectural masterpiece where opportunities for fun and relaxation abound. The property was listed on August 21st, 2018, went under contract after only 16 days on the market, and closed on January 22nd, 2019.
The two-level, custom-built home features a stylish living room with hardwood floors, a gas log fireplace, and French doors that lead to a lovely screened-in porch. The beautiful kitchen, which opens to the elegant family room, boasts white cabinetry, granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, Italian glass tile backsplash, a center island with a quartz countertop, a breakfast bar, and hardwood floors.
The master bedroom is appointed with carpet, built-in cabinetry, a walk-in closet, two additional closets, and a dressing room. A peaceful retreat, the master bath includes a dual sink vanity, a soaking tub, a walk-in shower with both handheld and rain showerheads, a separate water closet, imported French stained-glass windows, a skylight, and heated travertine tile flooring. The upper level of the home features a pleasant sitting room with access to a balcony and screened-in sleeping porch.
In addition, the property includes a guest house that features a great room, a kitchen, a bedroom, and a full bath. The exterior includes a breezeway patio, a charming summer house, and a gardening shed. And, of course, a waterfront home simply wouldn’t be complete without amazing water features. The estate includes a private pier with a boat lift, two slips, and a small beach.
“My clients, a couple from McLean, Virginia, decided several years ago that they wanted to relocate to Talbot County,” says Tom Crouch of Benson & Mangold Real Estate, the buyer’s agent for the property. “Over a period of about 18 months, I showed them over a dozen waterfront homes from Oxford to St. Michaels, but they patiently waited for the right house to come on the market. They wanted a high-quality waterfront home with big water views and a deep-water dock. The husband needed a private office, preferably detached from the main house. When I showed them this property, we knew almost immediately that it was the perfect home for them.”
