730 Skywater Rd, Gibson Island, MD 21056

Tucked away from the hustle and bustle, a lovely shingle style house sits quietly nestled on a prime 1.1-acre waterfront lot offering stunning, panoramic views of the Magothy River, serene wooded grounds, and wonderful privacy. Relax and enjoy your family and friends while watching bald eagles and osprey soaring, diving and fishing, and countless resplendent sunsets over the Magothy from the oversized open porch complete with a wet bar. Built in 2001 and owned by the original owner, this extremely solid, carefully thought out, five-bedroom, three and a half bath three-level home is filled with natural light, magnificent water views throughout, high ceilings, clerestory windows above the stairway and skylights galore. On the main level is a welcoming great room with a large Maryland sandstone fireplace opening into a kitchen with cherry wood cabinetry, a large open porch off the great room, and a first-floor master bedroom with en suite bath and laundry room, and a high-tech study. Ascend the second level to three oversized bedrooms, all with fantastic waterfront views, two with walk-in closets, and a bathroom suite with a large jetted soaking tub. With lovely views of the Magothy throughout, the lower level has a media/recreational room with built in cabinetry and a wet bar, a pool room with an Endless Pool with radiant heat ceiling tiles, and a good-sized workshop. This level also has a waterfront guest suite with its own private entrance, a sitting room, full bath and washer/dryer. Additionally, there is a large walk-in cedar closet and FEMA emergency hurricane shelter room. A virtually invisible solar array provides electricity to the house and power is stored in a Tesla Powerwall which provides power automatically during utility power outages. Just wait until you see the electric bills! Also included is a whole house water filtration system. This house could be modified to accommodate an elevator and an additional fireplace could be installed where built-in cabinetry currently is located. With plentiful room for parking, a large detached three car garage, and more than 4,800 square feet of living space, this well-built waterfront home awaits its new owner for many years of unparalleled enjoyment. Please be on notice that the MLS designates this property to have a screened porch, but it does not have screens--there was nowhere to designate a porch, so "screened porch" was selected--this porch could easily be converted to a screened porch, but it does not currently have screens. In fact, it used to be a screened porch. Information on Gibson Island--A private island within one hour of Washington, D.
