This remarkable waterfront estate is ideally located between the quintessential towns of Easton and St. Michaels. Rumored to be the “New Hamptons” of the Chesapeake, the location of this stately residence is enviable and convenient to both D.C., Baltimore, and Philadelphia commuters.
Built in 2004 with a sturdy and stately light brick exterior, this 8,400-square-foot home and adjacent guest house provides the perfect waterside backdrop for epic family gatherings.
Inside, a gracious foyer with inlaid wood ceiling detail and dark wood floors transitions to a large living area with light, wide-plank pine floors, a classic fireplace with red-brick surround, and outstanding views to the waterfront.
This space, when joined with the adjacent formal dining room, was designed with large-scale entertaining in mind. The dining room also offers amazing water views and is made cozy with its coffered ceiling overhead and an additional white-washed brick fireplace.
The adjacent farmhouse-style kitchen offers modern amenities in its integrated refrigerator, its stainless-steel double ovens, charming island with its base of wainscotting, cooktop, and breakfast bar seating for four.
The main level of the home also has a spacious home office with a floor-to-ceiling brick fireplace, separate seating area, and like the living and dining room, offers access to the property’s extensive covered patio space.
A main level primary suite is sunny and bright, and large enough to create a separate seating area. Its en suite bath offers a jetted soaking tub, a huge, walk-in shower with luxe tile treatment, and a pretty, granite-topped vanity.
The family has room to grow in this home with its three additional bedrooms, and there’s a large recreation room located on the residence’s upper level to keep everyone entertained.
This property also offers the best in guest quarters with its own cozy guest house. This sweet cottage offers its own lounging deck, a huge open-plan kitchen and living area with a gorgeous, herringbone pattern brick floor. A rustic, floor-to-ceiling brick fireplace makes this one bedroom, one bath cottage great accommodations when guests come to stay.
And while on the property they will enjoy outdoor amenities including a lovely, waterside pool and pool house, a fire pit, a sandy beach shoreline for kayaking and fishing, a large dock with deep-water slips, boat and jet ski lifts, and six feet of MLW, making staying and playing the ultimate no-brainer.
