Nestled on over 13 private acres, this breathtaking 6-bedroom, 4.5-bath waterfront estate offers an unparalleled living experience with 4,352 square feet of main living space plus an additional 1,500 square feet on the 3rd level. The property boasts more than 960 feet of pristine, unobstructed waterfront on Broad Creek—a front-row seat to nature's daily spectacle, from migrating waterfowl to graceful swans gliding across tranquil waters. A custom waterfront deck, private pier with boat lift, and meticulously preserved natural surroundings create a perfect harmony between water and land. Approach along a private tree-lined drive that builds anticipation before revealing the estate in its full splendor. The level, meticulously landscaped grounds provide a serene backdrop for the stately historic residence that has witnessed decades of family memories. Enter through the spacious screened-in porch into a grand foyer that welcomes you to an expansive living and entertainment room. This inviting space features walls of windows, abundant natural light, and a grand fireplace with decorative mantel. To the left of the entryway, find a versatile room suitable as additional living space or a home office, complete with built-in shelving and water views. The formal dining room, with its second large fireplace and waterfront vistas, has hosted holiday feasts and special occasions for fifty years. The dining area flows seamlessly into the updated eat-in kitchen featuring granite countertops, a large breakfast bar, gas cooktop, stainless steel appliances, and spacious pantry. A waterside deck awaits new gatherings, while a butler's pantry provides additional storage. A main-level half bath completes this floor. The grand staircase (or secondary staircase between study and dining room) leads to six generously sized second-floor bedrooms. The owner's suite—positioned for privacy at the hall's end—features a fireplace, ensuite bath, and access to a private front-side balcony spanning the home's length. Front-side secondary bedrooms share balcony access, while back-side bedrooms are served by a well-appointed full bath. The third level offers an additional 1,500+ square feet with a large bedroom area, spacious entertainment room, and three smaller rooms ready for customization. This level comes with completed drywall and electrical work throughout, plus a fourth full bathroom featuring a custom tiled shower. A rooftop terrace provides panoramic views of the estate and tranquil waters. The property includes a large detached garage with ample parking and storage. An externally-accessed basement level offers perfect storage for family treasures. A wide pad outside the garage accommodates boat, RV, or equipment storage. While thoughtfully modernized, this home retains its historic charm—exquisite hardwood floors, soaring ceilings, intricate architectural details, elegant trim, original windows, and beautiful woodwork throughout tell the story of craftsmanship cherished through decades. This beloved family estate, a repository of fifty years of memories and celebrations, now stands ready to begin its next chapter.
