The best of both worlds. If you crave that historical, Eastern Shore style home, but love the efficiency and amenities found in modern homes today, you've found what you are looking for. Completely stripped to its bare bones, this home has undergone an extensive restoration over the last several years. Period style moldings, raised panel cupboards, and reeded mantels surround the brick fireplaces. Custom kitchen cabinetry with leathered granite counters and exposed beam ceilings. A master suite on the first floor, with a walk-in closet/dressing room, and private bath with tiled shower, garden tub and his/her sinks. Tastefully done, with seamless transition from old to new. Set up with 3 additional bedrooms on the second floor and another full bath. Home is set up as a 4 BR but 3 BR septic.
*Taxable value of land and structures on it ("additions") is determined regularly by local assessors and does not affect market price.
