"Casual Elegance" best describes this classic Talbot County waterfront estate. Conveniently located within 10 minutes of either St. Michaels, Royal Oak or Easton by car, or hop in your boat and take a short, scenic cruise to Oxford, just 3.5 miles downstream from the private, deep water dock (158' x 6' dock w/boat lift and multiple slips will accommodate yachts with up to a 6' draft). The high quality brick house is well-designed, with bright, spacious rooms, 10' ceilings, wide antique pine floors (beautiful floors!), 3 fireplaces...this is a great house for large family gatherings. All of the downstairs rooms, including the primary suite, provide access to the wonderful 72' long by 12' wide blue stone-floored waterside porch. The primary downstairs suite includes a private study w/fireplace, huge walk-in closet and a luxurious bathroom, which was just tastefully remodeled this year! Relaxing on the porch in the evening, the sunset views across Plaindealing Creek are exceptional! The second floor features a spacious family room, 4 guest bedrooms and 4 full baths. The third floor features a full bath and a big play room for children (or, you might want to consider the third floor to be a large, climate-controlled, finished attic). Separate 1-bedroom guest cottage w/brick floored kitchen/family room with wood burning fireplace. Waterside pool & pool house. Beautiful lawn for outdoor sports and more (there have been 2 large family weddings on this classic, "Eastern Shore Estate")! Attention boaters: This location, with a private, deep-water dock and boat lift on Plaindealing Creek (a scenic Tred Avon River tributary) is ideal for boating, fishing and crabbing. Its a great location for kayaking, sailing or power boating...boats of all sizes up to 60+ ft. in length. Oxford is just a short, scenic cruise away by boat and the open waters of the Choptank River are just 4 miles downstream. Keep sailing SW and before you know it, you will be out on the Chesapeake Bay! From there, sail north to Tilghman Island, St. Michaels or Annapolis or head south toward the Atlantic Ocean!
