Custom-built new construction on 3.73 acres along the Choptank River, offering a truly unique waterfront setting with views of the river, a peaceful backwater slough and a picturesque pond. With water and open landscape in nearly every direction, this property offers a sense of space and tranquility that is hard to duplicate. Step inside to an open, light-filled floor plan where thoughtful design and custom details are evident throughout. Wide-plank wood flooring flows through the main living areas, while vaulted ceilings and a striking fireplace create a dramatic focal point in the great room. Expansive glass doors open directly to a large patio, extending the living space outdoors and providing another place to enjoy the surrounding landscape and water views. The gourmet kitchen is a standout with custom cabinetry, an oversized island, stainless steel appliances, double wall ovens and a cleverly concealed butler’s pantry offering exceptional storage and prep space. Just off the eat-in kitchen area, a spacious screened porch takes full advantage of the peaceful setting and provides the perfect spot for outdoor dining, entertaining or simply relaxing and enjoying the view. Offering 3 spacious bedrooms and 3.5 baths, each bedroom has its own private ensuite bath, providing comfort and privacy for both owners and guests. The second-floor bedroom creates an especially inviting retreat with a private balcony overlooking the Choptank River and surrounding property. Distinctive tile selections, contemporary finishes and thoughtful architectural details throughout give this home a character all its own. Outdoor living is an integral part of this special property. Enjoy morning coffee on the screened porch, gather with friends on the patio, or retreat to the upstairs balcony to take in the river views. Nature lovers will appreciate the abundant birdlife, with eagles, osprey and other native birds frequently seen throughout the area. And as the day comes to a close, settle in for the spectacular sunsets that make the name “Sunset Cove” especially fitting. The waterfront lifestyle continues with a shared community pier on the Choptank River. Slips are planned, with one reserved for this property, providing future access for boating, fishing, crabbing and exploring the waterways of the Eastern Shore. An attached two-car garage, paved driveway and generous acreage complete this exceptional property. Custom new construction, 3.73 acres, remarkable water views, outdoor living spaces and future boat slip access come together in a setting that truly captures the beauty and lifestyle of Maryland’s Eastern Shore. Shown by appointment only.
