This remarkable 31.99-acre waterfront estate in Rock Hall unfolds along an extensive shoreline where the tranquil waters and natural beauty of Langford Bay meet a protected cove, creating the ultimate in privacy for its new homeowners.
A crisp, understated exterior welcomes guests to the property allowing its commanding waterfront views to take center stage. Upon entry, you’re greeted with a light, bright, and beachy palette of pale greens, crisp white trim, and windows that look out to blue water everywhere.
While the original construction of the residence dates back to 1939, modern convenience has been achieved through thoughtful renovation. This is evident in the spacious modern kitchen with its all-white cabinetry, sandy hardwood floors, and attractive hardware package. The gorgeous white stone-topped center island provides a great match to the rest of the work surfaces and plenty of prep space, plus breakfast bar seating for three. A professional-grade stainless steel appliance package tops off this most enviable of gathering spaces.

Speaking of which, the main areas of this home are perfect for celebrating family milestones and holidays as they are all spacious and airy including the open plan dining and living room with its tall ceiling, handsome gas fireplace, and the character of the home’s original hardwood floors.
The floorplan also works in an expansive sunroom-in-the-round with panoramic waterfront views overlooking Langford Bay and the Chester River. This space conveniently opens to the home’s extensive wrap-around decking for seamless indoor-outdoor entertaining.
At the end of the day, the homeowners will retreat to a large and relaxing primary suite with a gas fireplace, separate seating area, outstanding views and access to the waterfront deck, and a brand new en suite bath with dual vanity, hardwood floors, and sandy-toned tiles.
There are four additional roomy bedrooms, and two convenient Jack-n-Jill baths to accommodate the lucky guests who stay there.
A partially finished basement offers an attractive family room with fireplace, waterfront views, and roughed-out plumbing to accommodate the finishing of another half bath.
