This crab-feast-ready, single-story cottage on Tilghman Island offers an idyllic waterfront placement and surroundings that epitomize getting away from the every-day.
A huge, screened-in porch not only provides awesome water views, it also wraps around to the front of the home where charming rocking chairs provide a front row seat to the property’s surrounding English-style gardens.
Walk inside and you’ll find an attractive white and bright open-plan living area with beautiful light hardwood floors throughout, a wood-burning fireplace feature wall, and amazing views out to the water through a series of oversized windows and two sets of extra-wide sliding doors.
This area blends seamlessly in the spacious modern kitchen with its clean lines and light cabinetry. Sleek, black quartz countertops that offset the light wood cabinets enhance the clean, contemporary, look. An extra-wide set of sliding glass doors lead out to an expansive screened-in patio area overlooking the waterfront, creating a great gathering spot for a good, old-fashioned crab feast.
This extended cottage offers sleeping quarters for three, including a roomy primary suite with full bath, and sliding glass doors for awesome waterfront views and access to the home’s waterside deck. Let the seagulls and ospreys be your natural alarm clock in the cheery bedroom suite.
The home offers two additional bedrooms and another bath with all new granite counters, contemporary bathroom cabinets, and a generously sized tiled and enclosed glass shower.
Along with the property’s ample storage options, which include a garden and kayak-keeping shed, the home features access to an encapsulated crawlspace, a detached studio with electricity, a smaller storage shed adjacent to the property’s parking area, and an extensive rip-rapped shoreline.
Located just minutes from island attractions such as the Watermen’s Museum and several restaurants, this home is also just 10 miles from Historic Downtown St. Michaels, and all its happy distractions.
