Enjoy all the amenities of Eastern Shore living in this spacious, modern, move-in ready, water-access home with several dramatic design features and great open entertainment space. Substantial upgrades have been made to this house over the last couple of years, including a new roof and HVAC. This versatile, custom-built home has a first-floor primary bedroom suite with a large walk-in closet, twin-sinks and an oversized shower with bench. The high-ceilinged great room is accented with an efficient gas fireplace. A chef's kitchen, with gas cooking and two ovens, connects the formal dining room with the everyday dinette that overlooks a private paver patio, and fenced and landscaped grounds. The airy and bright garden-view sunroom as a separate entrance to the patio. A front sitting room, tucked behind French doors, serves as a quiet place to read or could be an ideal home office. A large pantry, powder room and laundry complete the first floor. The open, wooden staircase in the great room leads to a second-floor balcony and three bedrooms, or two bedrooms and a media room, with full bath. An unexpected and large walk-in storage room completes the second floor. The home has an extended, attached two-stall garage beautifully finished with storage cabinets. A large garden shed is equipped with electrical service. The home is served by public water and sewer and is close to a fire hydrant, a rare, but important safety feature. It is shaded by mature trees and is minutes from the shops, restaurants and the harbor of Historic St. Michaels. The St. Michaels Nature Trail is a short distance away. Community residents also enjoy access to a private picnic park on the Miles River and a marina with a kayak launch and seasonal small-boat slips for rent. All this, and no expensive town taxes.
