Perfectly nestled on 4.96± private waterfront acres between Easton and St. Michaels, this extraordinary estate embodies the very best of Eastern Shore living, anchored by rare deep water dockage (6’+ MLW) for the ultimate Chesapeake boating lifestyle. This Royal Oak home’s western exposure offers amazing sunset views across Solitude Creek.This listing also includes a fully prepaid 96-year recorded ground lease on an adjoining 5.48± acre parcel of land -- featuring a picturesque wildflower pasture, a mature 4± acre maple orchard, and charming outbuildings (detached garage and red barn) -- creating unparalleled privacy, beauty, and tranquility.
A winding, tree-lined private drive sets the tone for the peaceful retreat that awaits. Inside, panoramic water views fill nearly every room, while the recently updated home blends timeless elegance with warm, inviting comfort. Soaring ceilings, rich hardwood floors, exquisite custom moldings, and expansive living spaces create an atmosphere that is both refined and welcoming.
The formal living and dining rooms, each centered around a cozy fireplace, offer inviting spaces for memorable gatherings and celebrations. The light-filled family room features dramatic volume ceilings, oversized windows, a fireplace, and stunning waterfront views that bring the outdoors in.
Designed for both everyday living and effortless entertaining, the gourmet kitchen features slate flooring, stainless steel appliances, a walk-in pantry, and a waterside breakfast area where every meal is paired with breathtaking scenery.
The luxurious main-level owner’s suite is a private sanctuary with its own fireplace, spectacular water views, dual walk-in closets with custom built-ins, and a spa-inspired bath designed for relaxation.
