Welcome to an extraordinary private waterfront estate perfectly situated on a premier point along the Potomac River! This property has over 3 acres and 900+ ft of shoreline with some of the most breathtaking sunrise views you’ll ever see over the water. From the moment you pull in, this home makes a statement with the grand architecture, expanded stamped concrete circular driveway, and beautifully landscaped grounds that perfectly fit the waterfront setting. Custom built with a luxury coastal vibe that feels both elegant and relaxed at the same time. The back of the home is truly where this property turns into a private waterfront retreat! Multiple outdoor living spaces including patios, balconies, and lounge areas all designed to capture the wide open river views. An added bonus to this incredible waterfront property is the oversized garage designed with functionality in mind for boating and recreational enthusiasts. Featuring an extra-tall approximately 16-foot garage door, the space easily accommodates large boats, RVs, and other oversized vehicles. The sellers have comfortably stored a 35-foot boat inside, and the property also includes an impressive 20,000-pound boat lift—perfect for effortless access to the water and enjoying the ultimate waterfront lifestyle. Whether it’s peaceful mornings watching the sunrise or entertaining friends by the water… every inch of this property was made to enjoy the lifestyle. Walk right down to your own private sandy beach and sandbar 🏖 — an incredibly rare feature that makes this property feel like your own private resort. Concrete steps lead directly to the shoreline while updated riprap, jetties, and shoreline improvements provide long term peace of mind. One of the best parts about this location is the pier sits on the protected creek side, helping keep your boats and jet skis sheltered during storms and rough weather! The private pier features Trex decking, electric, water, covered boat lift, and jet ski lift… river life made easy. Inside you’ll immediately notice the craftsmanship and attention to detail throughout. Gorgeous custom tile work in every bathroom and even the outdoor shower gives the home a high-end designer feel throughout. The construction itself is impressive too with all concrete foundation + flooring systems and structural steel beams in the basement offering exceptional strength and durability rarely found in waterfront homes. Additional features include an elevator, fireplaces in both the family room and primary suite, plus a private second floor bar and balcony overlooking the river… and honestly the sunrise views from up there are unreal ☀ Major updates have already been completed ✔ including a new roof, updated HVAC systems, upgraded fixtures, gourmet appliances and full indoor/outdoor security system with cloud + DVR recording plus your sprinkler system to keep your lawn beautiful on hot summer days! And the setting would be absolutely perfect for an infinity pool overlooking the river someday! The possibilities are endless! This would make a perfect wedding venue or even a luxury air bnb if it's not your primary home! With unmatched water frontage, privacy, protected docking, your own private beach/sandbar, custom outdoor shower, elevator, and incredible construction quality… this isn’t just a home, it’s a true Potomac River retreat. Contact me to schedule a private showing and come experience it in person!
