Property Description
Wake up to the sound of gentle waves and spend your days immersed in the best of Chesapeake Bay waterfront living. With a private sandy beach just steps from your door, this beautifully renovated coastal retreat offers the perfect backdrop for boating, fishing, paddleboarding, kayaking, swimming, and unforgettable sunset evenings filled with warm summer breezes. Thoughtfully redesigned with designer finishes throughout, the home seamlessly blends relaxed coastal charm with modern luxury. At the heart of the home is a stunning 2023 chef's kitchen renovation featuring custom KitchenAid cabinetry, premium appliances, expansive quartz countertops, and an oversized island with seating for up to 12-creating an ideal gathering space for hosting friends after a day on the water. Walls of glass frame sweeping Bay views, highlighted by a dramatic 4-panel Andersen sliding glass door that brings the outdoors in. The bright and airy three-season sunroom with all-new Sunspace windows offers the perfect setting to unwind on the custom full-size swing bed while watching sailboats pass, and the sky transform into vibrant evening colors. Whether launching a kayak at sunrise, spending afternoons swimming and paddle boarding, or casting a fishing line just beyond the shoreline, every day feels like a vacation. Evenings are made for entertaining on the beautifully designed paver patio beneath the pergola, where coastal breezes and glowing sunsets create an unforgettable atmosphere for gatherings with family and friends. Inside, elegant shiplap ceiling details, durable Mohawk waterproof laminate wood plank flooring, and cozy fireplaces in the bedroom, bathroom, and living room create warmth and character throughout. The home also features a built-in wine fridge, beverage station, and coffee bar-perfect for both quiet mornings and lively evenings. Custom-built-in bunk beds (queen lower, twin upper) provide flexible sleeping arrangements for guests, comfortably accommodating weekend visitors drawn by the waterfront lifestyle. The primary suite offers a new spa-inspired ensuite bath (2024) with a freestanding soaking tub, creating a peaceful retreat after long days in the sun, while the beautifully updated secondary bath features a spacious walk-in rain shower with modern finishes. Extensive upgrades provide comfort and peace of mind, including dual 2,000-gallon holding tanks (2023), updated HVAC, a tankless water heater (2023), a whole-house water filtration system (2024), enhanced attic insulation, and a fully encapsulated crawl space with a sump pump, vapor barrier, and dehumidifier. Outdoor enhancements include professionally designed landscaping, updated board and batten siding for fresh curb appeal, split rail fencing (2023), new gravel driveway (2023), thoughtfully designed exterior lighting, and a private 8' x 4' outdoor shower with bench seating-perfect after a day spent on the beach. Modern smart home features include a Nest thermostat, integrated security cameras, smart light switches, energy-efficient appliances, LED lighting, and reliable indoor/outdoor Wi-Fi coverage. From peaceful morning coffee overlooking the Bay to evenings filled with breathtaking sunsets and the soothing sounds of the water, this exceptional home offers the rare opportunity to fully embrace the coastal lifestyle-where every season feels like summer and every day feels like a getaway.
