Deale, MD 20751

This is the most unique property in Deale and features both an inground heated saltwater pool and views of nearby Rockhold Creek! Built in the early '60's as a weekend getaway for the owner of then-famous beer tavern in the Dupont Circle area of DC, the home was designed and oriented to maximize the beautiful views of the morning fog lifting off the water and later in the day the sun setting over the creek. Among the many unusual features of this home are a wrought iron wall in the main entry (taken from the tavern), a circular staircase to the upper level and a starlight room tucked behind the two-story fieldstone fireplace. The main level of this 2827 sq ft home features soaring wood-paneled ceilings and floor to ceiling windows in the great room which looks out to the in ground heated saltwater pool. A separate wing to the left contains the breakfast room, a kitchen with granite countertops and island, chef-inspired appliances and a huge pantry. The adjacent formal dining room opens to a solarium looking over the pool and towards the creek. Rounding out the main level is a backyard facing guest bedroom and full bath. Upstairs is an oversized primary bedroom with a second fieldstone fireplace, an attached bath with dual vanities, a make-up area and glass blocked shower. Down the hall is a second bedroom with its own ensuite bath and a laundry room with full-size washer and dryer. At the top of the stairs is an office/library area with a 3rd fireplace. Each bedroom and living area is separately cooled and heated allowing for maximum efficiency when not all rooms are being utilized. In addition to the home, the half-acre lot includes several detached storage areas for mechanical systems, pool equipment and lawn mowers, etc. plus a circular stamped concrete driveway with room for at least 5-6 cars. There is plenty of room to build a carport or garage if the new owner so desires.
