Come explore this unique 5.6 +/- acre property that is the perfect marriage of outdoor Eastern Shore elemental beauty and meticulous attention to construction detail that make this Bay Friendly property easy to comfortably love. The owner thoughtfully incorporated a Living Shoreline to meet the 365’ +/- of Choptank River water frontage. Enjoy boating or your personal watercraft from the private 50' +/- pier with L- shaped platform, power boatlift and 2 feet of mean low water (MLW). The home enjoys Northwestern exposure and views of the mouth of the Tuckahoe River with undeveloped shorelines- an area known for good fishing! The Difference is in the Details.... Great attention was given to this beautifully crafted 3 Bedroom 3 Bath home; including the selection of the building site, building materials used and mechanical systems to support the home. The eye appealing exterior is low maintenance Hardie Board siding, the exterior walls are foam insulated, and the windows are high efficiency rated. Optimal living temperatures are maintained by the geothermal heat pump and utility costs are greatly offset by the Tesla solar panels (owned). Enjoy the captivating wide water views of the river from the comfort of the three-bedroom, three-bathroom home that shares a soaring sense of openness by incorporating high ceilings accented by clerestory windows. The abundant natural light showcases the luster and grain of the 5" solid wood white oak flooring or ceramic porcelain floor tiles and Douglas fir trim used throughout adding warmth and character. The spacious kitchen, designed for both cooking and gathering, features a handcrafted eating bar and expansive Cambria quartz island and counters. There’s an abundance of storage offered by 42" cherry cabinets with fruitwood stain. The natural lighting also highlights the Douglas fir closets that line the hallway leading to the owner's private suite that includes a captivating waterfront view, sitting area, well-appointed bath and oversize closets with storage dividers. The home also offers a guest ensuite and an additional bedroom/bath combination area that could easily be partitioned to create an in-law suite. The list of features continues an encapsulated/conditioned crawl space, whole home automatic backup generator, a one car with workshop detached garage and additional outbuildings/storage sheds add versatility to the property. The tranquil setting with abundant natural beauty, thoughtful design and craftsmanship and well-appointed amenities makes this an exceptional opportunity to enjoy Eastern Shore Living!
