Experience the Chesapeake lifestyle at 1576 Bay Head Road, a stunning custom-built waterfront home offering over 6,700 square feet of living space on more than an acre of private land along the peaceful Little Magothy River. Built in 2017, this exceptional property combines modern comfort, expansive living spaces, and direct water access—just five minutes to the Chesapeake Bay with no bridges. Designed for both relaxed everyday living and memorable gatherings, the home features walls of glass framing sweeping river views, filling the interior with natural light. The spacious chef’s kitchen is equipped with a six-burner gas range, quartz countertops, professional-grade appliances, and a large center island, flowing seamlessly into the dining area and great room with soaring ceilings and a striking stone fireplace. Outdoor living is just as impressive. The property’s rare level waterfront lot (not in a flood zone) leads to a 60-foot private pier with water, electric, and two deep-water slips, perfect for boats, jet skis, kayaks, and enjoying life on the water. Expansive decks, a covered porch, and a retractable awning create ideal spaces for relaxing or entertaining while overlooking the river. The main-level primary suite offers a peaceful retreat with panoramic water views, private balcony access, and a spa-style bathroom. Upstairs, generously sized bedrooms provide comfort and privacy for family or guests. The fully finished lower level adds exceptional flexibility with a theater room, wet bar, home gym, office, and walk-out recreation area leading directly to the waterfront. Additional highlights include dual staircases, two fireplaces, and wide-plank hardwood floors throughout, reflecting the thoughtful craftsmanship and scale of this impressive home. Located just minutes from downtown Annapolis, marinas, restaurants, and major commuter routes, this property offers the rare opportunity to rent a private waterfront estate that delivers both tranquility and convenience. If you’re seeking a spacious waterfront residence with room to live, work, entertain, and enjoy the Bay year-round, 1576 Bay Head Road offers an unmatched rental opportunity.
