Tucked within a canopy of trees along Maryland’s Eastern Shore, this remarkable home rests quietly beside the Choptank River. The setting feels worlds away, eighty acres of meadows and woodland that open gently to more than 1,800 feet of private shoreline, where a western exposure captures breathtaking sunsets reflected across the water. The residence at 5084 Ferry Neck Road was shaped by owners

Inside the 1928 Spanish Colonial landmark at 2101 Connecticut Avenue, this three bedroom, three bath residence is a complete architectural reordering by Robert Gurney, FAIA. Awarded by AIA Northern Virginia and AIA Virginia, Apartment 24 is not a renovation layered onto history, it is a disciplined insertion within it. The interior was fully restructured within the original concrete column grid.

A charming corner end-unit with windows on three sides and a skylight above, this home is filled with natural light from morning to evening. The wider layout and more than 1,600 square feet of above-grade space create a comfortable sense of openness rarely found in this classic neighborhood. The gated private garden is a highlight, offering a secluded outdoor retreat framed by mature holly trees
