Two walk-in closets complement the spacious bathroom. The second floor is divided by an upper hall with an office, two bedrooms, a bath on one side, and a hall bath and two bedrooms on the other. The pool terrace opens off a screened porch, facing the river, and is ideal for outdoor entertaining. The attached three-bay garage can house automobiles, boats, bikes, golf carts. Down the gentle hill is a waterside deck leading to the private dock and sand beach. This is the perfect location to realize the dream of a life on the Chesapeake Bay shoreline that will be an enduring family tradition.
