Perched on three expansive lots with prime frontage, this North Beach home offers breathtaking water views from nearly every window and multiple decks overlooking the Chesapeake Bay. Refinished hardwood floors in a light tone with both warm and cool graining complement the freshly painted interiors, while design-inspired tile and finishes elevate every renovated bathroom. Modern updates include recessed lighting throughout, new ceiling fans in all bedrooms, replaced light fixtures, a refaced fireplace, and a new hot water pump, alongside thoughtful structural improvements such as the removal of a wall to open the staircases on the second and third floors. Recently featured in the Washingtonian June 2024 "Water's Edge" article, this home radiates sophistication and coastal charm.
The recently updated kitchen shines with quartz countertops, a glass tile backsplash, stainless steel appliances, a gas range, and built-in speakers. The open-concept main level flows effortlessly, with a large kitchen bar providing additional seating ideal for entertaining. In the living room, expansive Chesapeake Bay vistas lead to a deck perfect for enjoying the water views and the soothing sound of waves lapping against the rocks, while the dining area enjoys the same scenery, anchored by an elevated peninsula gas fireplace shared with the living room and kitchen. Step outside from the spacious family room, where vaulted ceilings and walls of glass-paneled doors with sidelights fill the space with abundant natural light and lead to a deck with views over the wetlands, complete with surround sound speakers. The main level also includes a generously sized laundry room with coordinated floor and wall tile, and a versatile space that can serve as a water-view office or bedroom, featuring a full bath, and walk-in closet.
Upstairs, the primary suite impresses with a cathedral ceiling, panoramic water views, a walk-in closet, and a private balcony.
