Minutes from St Michaels, this Tilghman Island home is a true Eastern Shore gem. This charming farmhouse is located in Fairbank, one of the Island's most desirable neighborhoods. Its rocking-chair front porch with water views beckons you to sit outside on a cool spring morning, listening to the Chesapeake Bay birdlife while you sip your coffee or tea. Inside, the living room boasts hardwood floors, a Hearthstone woodstove installed in 2016 and plenty of natural light as it opens to the dining area. A cozy reading or breakfast nook is off to the side.Another room downstairs, currently a den, offers a quiet place to relax and unwind or perhaps a guest room or personal yoga studio? Three exposed-brick chimneys accent the living room, dining room and den. The full-sized kitchen looks out over a brick patio installed in 2019, the spacious backyard and the outbuildings beyond. A side porch off the kitchen offers a covered space for a grill and/or potting bench, while the brick patio offers plenty of room to gather with friends. Refrigerator, dishwasher and hot water heater have all been replaced within the last two years. A small laundry room off the kitchen has a front-loading washer and dryer put in in 2015. Upstairs, you'll find three bedrooms, one currently used as an office (perfect for working from home!). The rooms are open and airy with high ceilings and hardwood floors.An updated bathroom with dual sinks completes the second floor. The entire interior of the home and the exterior trim has been freshly painted. The house has central air conditioning to beat the summer heat, and replacement windows were installed in a majority of the home in 2015. An electric fence to keep Fido at home was put in in 2018. Outbuilding/garage is large enough to house a vehicle or small boat! 4905 Fairbank Road is a special place and has been a much-loved home. Fairbank is a lovely community with a public wharf just a few minutes' walk down the road. Come take a look - perhaps you'll be the next happy owner of your dream farmhouse on an island in the Bay
