Some residences just exude that solid quality and character that beckons all who cross its threshold to come, sit, and stay for a while. This historic property, circa 1870, is certainly among them. The 2,600-square-foot, colonial-style home also represents the epitome of the St. Michaels lifestyle with its proximity to the harbor and awesome water views from nearly every room.
A gracious screened-in porch with a quintessential screen door leads to some of the best seats in the house and provides the equivalent of an outdoor living room with a great view of a truly charming neighborhood.
The beautiful front entry reveals an architectural delight with its period staircase and balustrade. Knotty, rich hardwoods lead down the center hall and to the French doors of the formal living room on the left. Gorgeous wood trim work and a traditional white mantle and fireplace create the perfect space for cordial conversations.
A lovely den with an attractive wall of built-ins is situated to the right of the entry, and further down the hall, the home opens up to a spacious kitchen and dining room combination. All-white, custom cabinetry, stainless-steel appliances, and a gorgeous center island topped with veiny quartzite, give this room polish and panache. Large windows allow generous amounts of natural light to flow through the cheery space.
The first floor extends to include a laundry room, two full baths, a primary bedroom suite with window bench seating, and a set of French doors opening to the property’s attractive and spacious paver patio. The knotty hardwoods continue to the second level of the home where you’ll find a second primary suite with a spa-like bath, two additional bedrooms, and another full bath—all with large windows creating sunny spaces throughout.
Outside, the property boasts a charming carriage house workshop and is surrounded by attractive privacy fencing. Pretty landscaping with hearty scrubs, mature trees, and paved paths creates an outdoor sanctuary located just steps from the waterfront and a few minutes from all the fine dining and shopping opportunities in the historic town of St. Michaels.
