About this property

Endless Water Views in a 5-Star Sanctuary


The beauty, comfort and tranquility of this contemporary home that overlooks Chesapeake's Elk River offers a special treat. Boating, fishing, crabbing and water play abounds here with the most beautiful sunsets found anywhere.
The home has three bedrooms, the master (king) on the main floor en-suite and 2 bedrooms (queens) on the third floor with full bath and large upper deck. This upper deck is utterly amazing with views clear down the river and star gazing with a glass of wine watching those sunsets is heavenly - guest call it my lighthouse room. Open concept on main floor with the living room, modern fully equipped kitchen and dining room with access to the outdoor deck. This deck accommodates a new dining seating for 6 and casual seating. Shade sail for comfort over outside picnic bench can easily be removed with pulley system if desired. Washer/Dryer in utility room and 1/2 bath. The roomy master bedroom is on other side of the home with private balcony, smart tv, double vessel sink, 2 person shower and jacuzzi tub for soaking with walk in closet. Central Air conditioning throughout and ceilings fans in the every room. Surround sound system in living room with 65" smart TV. Private chef available upon request for additional fees with regular, dairy free or gluten free menu options.
Outdoor space includes private fenced parking and the backyard for eating crabs on the picnic table or enjoying the fire pit at night under the stars. The bulkhead has steps that led into the water for launching the kayaks or floating in tubes which are provided along with beach towels seasonally.
*Please note there is a completely separate apartment on the ground floor of this home with no common inside access that is available for rent. Occasionally I stay down there or my family or it's rented so please ask me about the details if needed or ask about renting for extended family gatherings.
These waterways are lined with cute towns for unique shopping, wineries and restaurants.

Very relaxing zen feeling
We had a great time! Even though the temps were high there was a great breeze off the water and a fan overhead on the deck where you can spend all day just enjoying the view. We did some antique shopping nearby and came back to enjoy dinner outside. If you are looking for a great vacation spot, you found it!

A slice of paradise
This property did exactly what I needed it to do: restored my soul. I've had a year, to say the least, and I was looking for a beautiful, peaceful retreat - and Cindy's home has both of those things in abundance. The property is stunningly beautiful and exceptionally well maintained. The water views available for a variety of places on the property are soothing and plentiful, and you get the bonus of music drifting across the river from Unwined on the Water, which is directly across from the house. My dog Lola and I spent five blissful days decompressing, watching the ducks and herons, and getting rejuvenated for the long winter to come. We may need to top off our peace reservoirs in the fall, though, and this is the perfect place to do that. Just book it. You can thank me later. :)
