A rare find. This beautiful Acorn contemporary home...with lots of glass, wood beams and an open floor plan...is nestled on 21 acres with over 460 feet of deep water Potomac River frontage! In springtime, the property is bursting with blooming trees and flowers. A flagstone walkway leads to the house with it's multi-level deck and elevated screen porch. The efficiency kitchen opens to the dining and living areas and is adjacent to the screened porch...the ideal place for meals much of the year. Or, enjoy your morning coffee inside from the breakfast nook, where you can watch the birds and the water. In the cooler months, you will enjoy the impressive wood-burning fireplace in the great room. But, on a cold winter night, there is nothing better than watching the stars from the hot tub on the deck.
The cheerful master suite is highlighted by a wood burning brick fireplace and sliding doors to the deck. The sunny and bright master bath, remodeled in 2017, has a glass shower enclosure, double sinks and a deep contemporary soaking tub! A beautiful family room with lots of built-ins, wood beams and a wall of windows opens to a porch with an outdoor shower and finishes off the first floor living.
The three downstairs bedrooms all have river views and offer lots of light. One has an ensuite bath and another bath is off the hallway. If you're a crafter, hobbyist, or painter and enjoy working from home, the lower level studio is perfect!
This home is truly a retreat in a peaceful natural setting, with private river frontage, board and batten wood siding, skylights, 2 loft areas for work or kid's play, and lots of character. The oversized garage/workshop is a Conestoga barn structure, with space for several cars, boats, other toys as well as a full walk-up storage loft overhead. The current owners added the attached heated/air conditioned office. With a wood burning stove and room for a pool table and more! The ideal spot for a detached rec room.
Up the hill, the bright and spacious garden building can store a riding mower and still provide for a place for everything you need to plan, plant and tend to flowers and vegetables. The attached garden is completely deer-proof with a 7 ft. deer fence inside the wooden fence. There is a small deck so you can relax and enjoy the fruits of your labor.
Walk the gently sloping path for the house down to the deep water section of the Potomac. Bring your power boat, water toys, canoe or kayak. The floating deck conveys so you can enjoy summer waterfront living. Lots of room to add a gazebo or party structure! The house is sited on an 11 acre lot but an additional 10 acre lot will convey also. You can even add more fencing, build a barn and bring your horses!
Shepherdstown (only 20 minutes away), with its quaint shops, wonderful restaurants, Shepherd University, craft fairs and artist events as well as Antietam Battlefield and antique shops, will keep you busy exploring! Whitings Neck Equestrian Center only minutes away! If you love contemporary homes with open floor plans, creative spaces and outdoor living, then this home is a "must-see."
