There are waterfront homes—and then there are waterfront escapes with million-dollar views. Perched on an elevated lot overlooking St. Clements Bay, this uniquely charming brick mid-century modern home captures breathtaking panoramic water vistas from nearly every room. Whether you’re seeking a peaceful weekend retreat or a spectacular year-round residence, this property delivers serene coastal living at its finest. Enjoy your mornings on the extra-large 30x30 deck at the end of your private deep-water pier—complete with electricity and a boat lift—perfect for boating, sailing, or simply soaking in the view. With effortless access to the Potomac River and Chesapeake Bay, you can set out for adventure anytime. Indoors, generous living spaces and spacious sunrooms on both levels provide natural light and an easy flow for entertaining. A charming European-style front courtyard framed by a low brick wall adds character to the property, while two brick parking pads shoulder the property, and a 1-car detached garage adds storage for bikes, kayaks, boating equipment, and more. The gently sloping backyard leads to the water’s edge, inviting you to unwind on the pier and let the calming sounds of the bay complete your day. Welcome to waterfront living redefined.
