With a stunning renovation between 2016-2018 by top tier builder Delbert Adams with architectural and interior design by Jenkins Baer Associates, this elegant two-story three bedroom three and a half bath brick home offers panoramic views of Gibson Island with peeks of the Magothy, particularly in the winter months. This exceedingly private 2 plus acre property is elevated, beautifully landscaped, is in a stunning environment offering complete peace and serenity. Swim in the private pool, bask poolside, or relax on the screened porch right alongside the pool while enjoying the beauty of this spectacular property. A long winding paved driveway leads up to the front of the house where there is plenty of room for parking. A two-stall garage is connected to the house with access to the lower level through the garage. A welcoming front door leads to a generously sized center hall. With multiple windows throughout providing natural light, enter the open dining area and gourmet kitchen. The kitchen overlooks a beautiful great room with propane fireplace, coffered ceilings, and stunning custom built-ins. French doors open to the large fully renovated screened porch leading to the inviting outdoor pool with wonderful plantings alongside and spectacular Island views. Off the center hall near the kitchen is a breakfast area with large window bench, numerous windows and a custom dry bar with two wine refrigerators. The master bedroom suite is located on the main level. With good closet space in the master bedroom and windows with lovely views, there is a separate dressing room area. The master bath has a jacuzzi tub, shower, separate toilet area, and vanity with sink with cabinetry below. Off the main level center hallway is an attractive powder room. An outdoor entrance at the bottom of the stairs descending to the recently renovated lower level opens to a beautiful yard. On one side of the stairs is a fabulous den with top of the line custom built-ins, including two desks, bookcases, room for a large TV and plenty of storage space. The den has a second opening into the lower level hallway-- pocket doors create enormous privacy for those in the den as well as those sleeping in the two attractive bedrooms located across from the den on the other side of the stairs. Both bedrooms have pretty views of the gardens. Two full bathrooms are located on this level. A generous laundry room is down the hallway along with a huge utility room that provides ample storage as well as direct access to the garage from inside the utility room. The central air conditioning was completely revamped during the renovation. The house is heated by oil with above ground oil tanks located in the utility room. Propane is accessed from the underground propane tank that is used for the kitchen cooktop and great room fireplace, and a propane heater could be connected for the pool as well as for general heat, if desired. The Hoot septic system and drain field is only a few years old. Information on Gibson Island--A private island within one hour of Washington, D.
