About This Property

Discover The Birch Bower, a rare architect-designed lakefront sanctuary offering 600 feet of private shoreline on Deep Creek Lake. Completed in 2021, this 6-bedroom, 5.5-bath residence exemplifies modern luxury, combining meticulous design, serene natural surroundings, and proven short-term rental performance. Turnkey consideration is available with a compelling offer. This extraordinary lakefront estate presents a unique opportunity for discerning buyers seeking a distinguished and enduring retreat on Deep Creek Lake. Set on 0.39 acres with an adjoining 1.5± acre buffer strip, the property affords unparalleled privacy and ecological significance, with protected forest supporting endangered native species. Its orientation captures both sunrise and sunset, bathing the dock in coveted afternoon light. Inside, refined craftsmanship and comfort converge. The main gathering space features 11-foot ceilings, polished concrete radiant-heat floors, a sleek Spark gas linear fireplace, and a rich walnut accent wall that adds warmth and depth. A glass-enclosed prow, highlighted by a rich walnut ceiling, frames captivating lake views around a custom dining table, while Marvin Ultimate windows invite abundant natural light. Custom cabinetry throughout the home enhances both style and function. The primary suite boasts sloped 11-foot ceilings and panoramic vistas, and each guest bedroom includes a private en suite bathroom with layered soundproofing for serenity. The residence is intentionally designed to accommodate multigenerational living and flexible owner use, with the primary suite above the great room and the walk-in pantry both lockable during short-term rental stays. Outdoor spaces are designed for both relaxation and entertaining, including a private upper deck off the primary suite, a screened lower-level porch, a hot tub terrace with an outdoor shower, and an open-air lakeside terrace, each offering stunning lake views. Thoughtful outdoor lighting is incorporated throughout to enhance ambiance while protecting the night sky. The main-level accessible suite includes supportive features such as grab bars, a roll-in shower, a roll-under sink, and thoughtfully positioned light switches throughout the home. A heated, zero-threshold front entry and an ADA-compliant gravel path leading to the dock, where a safety handrail ensures secure, barrier-free access. State-of-the-art systems include four HVAC zones, a humidifier/dehumidifier serving the main gathering space, high-speed internet extending to the dock, a Kohler whole-house generator, a 2020 well, sprinkler system, and an Aircat whole-house water treatment system. 26 fully owned Tesla solar panels underscore the home’s commitment to energy efficiency and sustainable living. Tucked at the quiet end of a private lane, The Birch Bower offers rare seclusion with effortless access to Deep Creek Lake’s year-round recreation and charm. Nearby Wisp Resort provides four-season adventure with skiing, snowboarding, and mountain biking, while Swallow Falls State Park and Deep Creek Lake State Park invite exploration of pristine forests and waterfalls. Just minutes away, the lake’s marinas, artisan markets, and locally loved restaurants create a vibrant yet relaxed community atmosphere—all within a few hours of Washington, D.C., Baltimore, and Pittsburgh. Where architectural refinement meets untouched lakeside beauty, The Birch Bower emerges as one of Deep Creek Lake’s exceptional and timeless treasures.
