This exquisite property offers 6,840 square feet of heated living space (8,509 total) and includes a boat slip, making it a perfect sanctuary for nature lovers and water enthusiasts alike. A long, private drive with a circular turnaround leads to the welcoming front staircase and charming covered porch. Inside, the foyer opens to both the main and ground levels.

Step onto the expansive, maintenance-free deck and enjoy gentle bay breezes while watching bald eagles soar overhead. The gourmet kitchen is a chef’s dream, complete with a large island, quartz countertops, walk-in pantry, high-end stainless steel appliances, tile backsplash, and rich hardwood floors. It flows seamlessly into a bright dining area surrounded by three walls of windows overlooking the water. The main level also includes a home office with custom built-ins, a stylish powder room, and a luxurious owner’s suite. The primary bedroom features tray ceilings, elegant moldings, wainscoting, serene water views, and dual walk-in closets—one with a built-in makeup vanity, desk, and stackable washer/dryer.
