Originally built in 1778 and fully reimagined by Blue Heron Contracting during a meticulous 2012–2013 restoration and expansion, this extraordinary waterfront home in Kent Island Estates offers something rarely found: authentic 18th-century character paired seamlessly with modern coastal luxury.
Set on 1.3 acres with 175 feet of shoreline, the home captures sweeping, unobstructed views of Eastern Bay from every room. Reclaimed pine floors, four original brick wood-burning fireplaces, and pocket doors preserve its historic soul, while thoughtful expansion and design elevate it for today’s lifestyle.
The waterside chef’s kitchen flows effortlessly into the family room, creating an inviting gathering space where walls of glass frame panoramic water views. Whether hosting sunset dinners or enjoying a quiet morning coffee, the Bay is always center stage.
Upstairs, five spacious bedrooms include a generous primary suite retreat. Four fully renovated designer baths, including heated floors in the primary, blend timeless finishes with refined comfort. A stylish main-level powder room completes the interior.
Outside is where the Chesapeake lifestyle truly unfolds. A private 150-foot pier with 8,000-lb boat lift and sun deck invites spontaneous cruises and long summer days on the water. The bulkheaded shoreline with riprap provides both protection and natural beauty. A 30’ x 26’ waterside paver patio and fire pit create the perfect setting for sunset gatherings overlooking the Bay, all surrounded by expansive lawns and mature trees that offer privacy and serenity.
Additional features include a 26’ x 44’ detached garage with EV charging, workshop and boat storage, partially finished conditioned basement, dual geothermal heat pumps (5 zones), a 20KW generator, and an owned 1,000-gallon buried propane tank.
This is more than a historic home. It is a true Chesapeake Bay legacy property, where boating, entertaining, and panoramic views become part of everyday life.
Experience waterfront living the way it was meant to be.
