This magnificent beach house is nestled among towering pine trees on the western shore of the Chesapeake Bay and features a private 200-foot long sand beach that is perfect for swimming.
Experience the beautiful sunrises over the Bay. Relax on the beach, the waterfront deck or the large flagstone patio and watch the sailboats and ships pass many miles offshore.
Explore the coastline on two double sea kayaks included with the house rental. The Chesapeake Bay is well-known as a bird lovers paradise. From the beach house you will see local osprey, great blue heron, bald eagles and pelican diving and catching fish. You may see a thousand Canadian geese arriving together to spend the night near shore. Cardinals, blue birds and other song birds also abound among the magnolias, azaleas, crepe myrtles, dogwoods, and towering pine trees.
The 4000 square foot house was renovated from top to bottom in 2005. It features an open floor plan and endless Bay views from every room. The huge great room features an antique wood-burning fireplace. It is open to a kitchen with new stainless steel appliances, a 4-person breakfast bar, and a large dining room with table for 8. The huge front porch, giant all season sun room with foosball table, or fully-screened rear porch, are all perfect spots for breakfast with the family or to play games or read a good book.
A large private studio apartment above the detached garage is included in the rental. It features a Queen bed, double futon sofa, full bath, a/c and heat, dining table, TV/VCR/DVD, full kitchen and elevated deck with great views. The apartment accomodates a small family and is perfect for extra relatives or friends.
All of the bedrooms are oversized. The upstairs King bedroom (23' x 16') features a large in-suite full bathroom with double sinks. The upstairs Queen bedroom (22' x 14') includes an attached 10' x 5' annex room with a full size baby crib and shares a hallway full bath with the "kids bedroom" (17' x 14') featuring two double beds. The Queen bedroom on the first floor (14' x 12') has a full bath directly across the hall.
