About This Home

As of May 2024

Dreaming of stunning sunsets and a comfortable life on the water? Dream no more! This contemporary waterfront features amazing views from almost every window, great spaces for entertaining or quiet contemplation, and all the enjoyment the "salt life" has to offer. Located in the desirable Society Hill neighborhood of Breton Bay, the home is minutes from shopping, restaurants and is an easy commute to points North and South. This one-of-a-kind mid-century-modern design is a passive solar, Deck House custom home. Marble floors in the foyer and soaring wood ceilings greet you as you enter the large, open living and dining rooms where you'll be struck by panoramic views of the bay's sparkling waters. A contemporary Harman pellet stove helps keeps this amazing space comfy and warm during the chillier months. Outside, comb your private beach for washed up treasure, fish and crab from the newer dock and bring all your toys for fun on the water! Paddle, motor or sail your way around Breton Bay, take a jaunt up to Leonardtown for dinner or head out on a voyage down the Potomac River! When it's time to return to shore, designer wood cabinetry highlights the eat-in kitchen. Appliance garages, a newer cooktop, built-in desk, peninsula with breakfast bar and keeping room make this a cozy, relaxed environment for informal meals. Double sliding doors out to the composite back deck keep the flow easy for larger gatherings. Wake up every morning to amazing water views from the primary bedroom suite. It's an inviting space where you can relax in the reading nook, step out to your own private deck or soak the day away in the luxurious, updated primary bath. Two more good size main floor bedrooms, one with an attached bath, make one-level living here easy. There are plenty of options for a dedicated home office as well. The lower level has been finished with LVP flooring, built-in bookshelves, a rec room w/ wet bar, a bonus room w/ small walk-in closet and a full bath. What a great guest space! Double doors walk out to a shaded, private side patio and the lower level also includes a nice size workshop and lots of unfinished storage. A two-car garage with shelving, dual zone HVAC and double water heaters, main floor powder room, and large laundry room with cabinets are finishing touches that make this truly unique waterfront home a must-see. No HOA, Leonardtown schools, and Breton Bay amenities include golf, tennis, outdoor pool, clubhouse, restaurant/bar and a waterfront park w/ community beach, picnic area, playground and dock.
