Fairmiles, one of Talbot County’s most distinguished waterfront estates, enjoys an extraordinary setting along the coveted Miles River. This Federal-style manor blends timeless elegance with the warmth and charm of Maryland’s Eastern Shore. Rarely does an estate offer such an intimate connection to the water. The property boasts its own private, boutique winery, adding a layer of refined luxury to the expansive grounds. The residence and waterside swimming pool are remarkably close to the protected shoreline, capturing sweeping, ever-changing river views from nearly every room. Each season unveils its own captivating beauty: summer yachts gracefully navigating the river, autumn’s brilliant palette of changing colors, the enchanting glow of Christmas trees illuminating with neighboring piers, and the fresh blossoms of spring. Together, these ever-changing scenes create a remarkable waterfront experience throughout the year. A private dock with an impressive eight feet of mean low water (MLW) depth offers exceptional opportunities for accommodating deep-draft vessels. Ideally situated between historic Easton and St. Michaels, Fairmiles combines privacy, natural beauty, and refined waterfront living with convenient access to exceptional dining, shopping, and cultural attractions. For the discerning traveler, Easton Airport is approximately ten minutes away, offering convenient private aviation access and fixed-base operator (FBO) services. By appointment only. Listing agents must accompany all showings. Do not enter the property without an appointment.
