Offering exclusive access to private waterfront amenities and stunning views this circa 1986 custom-built home is situated on 1.21 acres and showcases exceptional craftsmanship and meticulous maintenance both inside and out. Upon entering the home, you are immediately greeted by expansive views of St. Leonard Creek, a historically significant waterway from the War of 1812 era. The two-story living room features a charming brick hearth, a wood-burning fireplace, exposed structural ceiling beams, and a wood-paneled ceiling that adds to its classic appeal. The main level includes a primary suite with a recently renovated full bathroom with heated floors, offering convenience and breathtaking water views from the adjacent sitting area and access to the back deck. The updated kitchen is a chef’s dream, featuring cherry cabinets, granite countertops, a large island, and a full pantry. The formal dining area and a spacious screened outdoor eating area are perfect for enjoying seafood boils or crab feasts. Upstairs, the home includes three bedrooms, two with attached full bathrooms, and a loft area overlooking the main living space. The finished basement provides ample natural light and versatile living space ideal for entertaining, a game room, or a home office, complemented by another full bathroom. An extensive storage and maintenance area is also available, accommodating seasonal items, crafts, tools, and providing easy access to HVAC and plumbing systems. The property features a hot tub, which conveys with the home, offering a private retreat to relax and take in the picturesque views. A short, level walk leads to the 183-foot pier, equipped with a storage shed, a 12,000-pound boat lift, a 2,800-pound lift, a sun deck, and a kayak/canoe launch. With a mean low water (MLW) depth of approximately 5 feet at the end of the pier and a shoreline of around 164 feet, this property supports various water activities including boating, jet-skiing, paddleboarding, and kayaking. St. Leonard Creek connects directly to the Patuxent River and is conveniently close to Solomons Island, Vera’s, Myrtle Point Beach, Jefferson Patterson Park, and numerous dining and recreational options. A detached two-car garage with a new compressor (which will convey), a shed, and a freshly sealed asphalt driveway further enhance the property. Located 22 miles from PAX NAS, 14 miles from Solomons, 45 minutes from Joint Base Andrews, and approximately 1 hour and 10 minutes from Washington, DC, this property presents a unique opportunity to own an exceptional piece of waterfront real estate in Southern Maryland.
