Hello Gorgeous!!! This beautiful home has 400' of river frontage on the North Branch of the Potomac River and sits on just over 9 acres of absolute beauty! This custom built home has been architecturally designed to meet Maryland and FEMA flood plain requirements. Let's start on the main living area where the open floor plan allows easy flow from the kitchen into a jaw dropping great room with two stories of insulated windows overlooking the river. The kitchen has solid surface counters, wall oven and cook top. The primary bedroom has a huge ensuite bathroom with walk-in shower and adjacent walk-in closet on. This level also features a laundry room, pantry and additional bedroom with full bathroom. Just off the kitchen is an enormous three season sunroom with a propane heater to take the chill off. Access to the homes amenities is helped by a three level 950 lb capacity residential elevator. Beautiful spiral staircase also accesses all three levels. Head upstairs to the 3rd level of living which features a loft area with incredible river views and additional bedroom and full bathroom. Also have peace of mind when the winds blow that there’s a whole house Kohler propane generator to back up the power. Heating is forced air propane furnace and radiant floor heat can be used if desired. The split system efficiently heats and cools the home with double insulated spray foam and fiberglass with 2x6 construction, keeping you warm in the winter and cool in the summer! If you want to go with some old-fashioned warmth and ambience throw a log or two into the wood burning stove in the great room while you watch the snowflakes fall. The home has a two car lower-level garage and another garage storage area under the sunporch. Irrigation system helps keep that grass looking good with a controller in the game room area of the first level. Great place to kayak or canoe right out your front door and with the C&O Canal Towpath just a quarter mile away it’s ideal for those who want to be close to nature. The house also features a boat house (24x34) built to house the airboat he and his wife used to fly up the North Potomac to Cumberland in the warm months. The sporting center in Cumberland features a boat ramp and plenty of parking. The non-stop trip was just fifteen minutes. Of course, they often stopped to explore the river along the way or fish. The deep water in front of the home was where the airboat was moored. It provided the place for the airboat to reach floating speed and pass over shallows without difficulty or damage to the boat. Family and friends looked forward to the rides when they visited during warm weather. The boat house is constructed with a high ceiling so that the boat and trailer could be backed into easily. It features large sliding doors, water and electric and is unobtrusively located on the property for all your oversized toys or tools.
