Nestled along the Maryland shore of the Potomac River near its convergence with the Chesapeake Bay, St. George Island is rich in early Maryland history and renowned for its natural beauty—especially the dramatic sunsets over the Potomac. Situated in the heart of the island, Island House is a distinctive architectural gem. This two-story residence showcases an expansive glass frontage and a second-story balcony offering spectacular water views, often filled with sightings of great blue herons, ospreys, passing boats, and unforgettable sunsets. The main level features an open-concept great room with a wood-burning fireplace, pine hardwood flooring, and a modern gourmet kitchen. Radiant in-floor heat provides year-round comfort. The upper level includes a spacious primary bedroom, guest room, and a cozy bunk room, along with two full baths and a convenient laundry area. Major updates include a standing seam metal roof (2021) and a new well pump installed last year. Outdoor living is equally impressive, with a beautiful in-ground swimming pool featuring an electric cover, plus a charming pool house surrounded by a stunning garden—ideal for guests and entertaining. A detached garage offers space for one vehicle or serves well as a workshop or additional storage. There is also a large shed that makes a great place for storage. The grounds are enhanced by mature plantings and outstanding professional landscaping, all supported by an advanced irrigation system. Island House was designed by award-winning architect Wayne Good and has been featured in notable publications including Cottage Living and Architecture DC. This property would also make a great AirBNB. Furniture, dishes etc covey
