1527 Shipsview Road 

This custom, contemporary, waterfront estate was completely rebuilt from top to bottom in 2013 to dramatically bring the Chesapeake Bay into your everyday life. Perfectly situated on just under an acre in sought after Beacon Hill, the home fits seamlessly into the row of stunning properties on aptly named ‘Shipsview’ Road. The panoramic views of the Chesapeake Bay shipping channel, the Baltimore Light, and both Gibson and Kent Islands are unsurpassed from almost every room in the house. The Northeasterly exposure spares the home from the strong heat of the afternoon sun creating an optimal climate both indoors and out. The elegant mahogany entry doors welcome you into the vaulted great room with soaring windows that display the incredible views. The curved staircase with custom iron railing and crystal chandelier add to the drama upon entry. The sprawling layout consists of two wings making it an ideal set up for multigenerational living or hosting guests in comfort and privacy. The wing to the West offers a main level waterside primary suite, a second large main level bedroom and a full hall bath. Up the beautiful curved wooden stairway you will find two large water-view bedrooms adjoined by a spa bath. Back on level one the large, eat-in, gourmet kitchen spills effortlessly into the great room and shares a fireplace with the cozy family room. The stunning bay views are on full display throughout each of these spaces. The wing to the East, accessed by a rear stair, is home to the second level primary suite with incredible views, a fireplace, a luxurious bath, two walk-in closets, a hall powder room and a charming office or 6th bedroom. The main level back hallway is lined with floor to ceiling storage cabinetry and leads to the two-car garage with insulation, dry wall, custom lighting, custom floor treatment, a work bench, and an additional storage closet. A large laundry room features a chute from one of the primary closets above; the ultimate in convenience! The lower-level bonus space is ideal for a gym, music room or play room and the utility room adds even more storage. The home is equipped with several modern conveniences such as a 4 zoned geothermal heating system, built in roller screens and a whole house generator. Beyond the rear deck the lush green lawn rolls gently to a custom stone sea wall and the ideal waterside dining spot. You will host quite a few memorable moments here in the years to come! The private pier (undergoing replacement) includes a covered slip perfect for your bay run about. Location, craftsmanship, thoughtful layout, water views from almost every room and a private pier on the bay are just a few of the reasons you will not want to miss this truly one of a kind, waterfront gem.
