You have to tour the home to appreciate the quality craftsmanship which includes 2x6 framing, 9 ft. first floor and 8 ft. second floor ceilings, brickwork with Cushwa oversized bricks with water tables, soldier courses and quoin corners, custom spiral staircase, custom fireplaces with marble and 18th century mantles, built in bookshelves and pocket doors. Hardwood floors throught the entire home. (These are just a few of the features so please see the List of Features document!). Geothermal heat and air provide comfort and utility costs that seem almost unbelievable.

Ok, hold on.. there is a partially finished 2000 sf basement which is accessable from the first floor and stairs from the garage! The rear brick, wall lined patio (with lighting integrated into the steps), extends across the back of the home and provides space for private entertaining with those water views! Waterfront overlook deck with steps down to the Wicomico. Deep water access out to the Chesapeake Bay and beyond. Just a few hours from the DC and Baltimore areas and 45 minutes to Ocean City and other popular Eastern Shore attractions!
