A remarkable architect-designed custom residence off Rock Hall's historic and fashionable Lawton Avenue. Located just inside Swan Creek, a short cruise around the corner to the Chesapeake Bay. Room for multiple boats at the pier. The dock is protected from the harshness of the bay, yet affords very easy access, within just a minute to the mouth of the Chesapeake Bay. Broad Swan Creek views, in the heart of Rock Hall's Gratitude waterfront neighborhood. The home features an open floor plan on the water side, with a wrap-around deck, taking in supreme waterfront views from the kitchen, family room and casual dining area. The lawn-side of the house is comprised of a second living room/parlor, a traditional dining room, and a second kitchen. This design has served perfectly over the years for caterers and accommodating large parties, as well as extended guests. There is also a full bath on this floor, as well as a very convenient wet-bar off the entrance to the deck. There are beautiful cherry hardwood floors throughout the entire first floor. The upper floors have four bedrooms in all (including the upper loft/fully finished attic). Multiple decks, panoramic views; the house was elegantly designed for entertaining ease. There is some interior deferred maintenance, but if ever there was a property deserving of your TLC, this valuable home is it. A must see. Please enter by appointment only.
