Just 5-miles outside historic St. Michaels, MD...Classic "Eastern Shore Waterfront Retreat," featuring a substantial 5,400+ sq. ft. home, thoughtfully designed to capture cooling SW summer breezes and spectacular sunset views across the sparkling waters of Harris Creek. Sited on 8.26 private acres w/over 300' of natural "living Shoreline," features of the brick home include high ceilings (including a cathedral ceiling in the family room and tray ceiling in the primary bedroom); four (or 5) bedrooms; 4 full and 2 half baths; large primary suite w/recently updated bath; gourmet kitchen w/island and breakfast room connected to a wonderful family room w/fireplace. Generous waterside glass to maximize the water views from most rooms. Beautiful waterside swimming pool (heated), surrounded by a spacious multi-level patio. For Chesapeake bay boating, there is a substantial 6' wide x 200' dock w/electric boat lift. Water depth at the dock on a typical low tide (MLW) is over 5 ft. This is a great boating, fishing and crabbing location. Tilghman Island's waterside restaurants, marinas and the open waters of Chesapeake Bay are just a short, scenic boat ride downstream from the dock. By car, the Town of St. Michaels with its many fine restaurants and attractions is less than 10-minutes away (5-miles). The house is well-elevated and is NOT in a high risk flood zone (flood insurance not mandatory). Very private. No HOA!
