Description

Imagine yourself on the Eastern Shore right between the beaches of Ocean City, MD and Chincoteague Island, VA. In a hip small town, with an amazing Historic district, and you are sitting by the pool of your home, one of the most impressive historic homes in the community. With beautiful Arts and Craft details, brick fireplaces, hardwood floors, and stacked moldings from the base, to the crown. Featuring a Gourmet Kitchen with a multi-burner Wolf Range, Sub Zero cabinet front refrigerator, custom wood cabinets with granite countertops. A large Primary suite with a private balcony, custom walk-in closet, and a Primary Bath with a custom tiled shower, and a large, deep, soaking tub. There is an office/study with bookcases from the floor to the ceiling, where work or just some private time spent reading, and you won't want to leave. The extra Bedrooms are down the hall away from the primary, so guests/kids have some space, (this makes the primary all the more of an escape). Downstairs, the formal entryway sets the tone for entertaining with its wide brick fireplace, and elegant staircase coming down. Then you pass through glass pane doors to either the formal dining room, or the spacious living area, both were designed to impress. Then you can walk out to the covered west side porch to sit and take in the cool breezes, or walk down to the terrace that wraps around the Saltwater Inground pool. At the end of the patio, you find a pool house that can hold all the pool toys, with room to possibly add a bar or even make it a guest cottage. The home has expansive gardens all around, including a vegetable garden behind the finished 3-car garage/carriage house, that has extra storage on its 2nd floor. I know, now your thoughts are, it must be expensive to heat or cool - but this home features a complete multi-zone Geo-Thermal HVAC system that assures year-round comfort without the high cost. The home went through a major Rehab in 2002 that changed the entire electrical system with new wiring, Insulated the exterior walls, renovated the baths to have all the contemporary details you will want, and gave the home the Amazing kitchen. Also, an elevator was added that can hold several people (or a wheelchair and someone to assist) which travels to both living floors and the basement. There is a basement for lots of extra storage. With a full concrete floor that keeps it totally dry. This home has all the historic details, matched with contemporary features, that you will love. Call and schedule your private showing before this Incredible opportunity gets away.
