Private Pier + Water Views! 131 Claiborne Road in Edgewater is tucked along the banks of Scotts Cove, right off of Beards Creek. This custom-designed waterfront home is situated on 2+ wooded acres, and epitomizes natural beauty and tranquility inside and out. It is reminiscent of some of the Shingle style homes of the late 19th century in the design of the facade and use of natural materials such as red cedar shingles and stone. The open floor plan allows for unobstructed water views from nearly every room, and the effortless flow of the space is ideal for entertaining family and friends. Boat to the South River from your private pier, or drive to historic downtown Annapolis in just 15 minutes. When you step into the foyer, you are greeted by rich hardwood floors and the view across the living room through a wall of windows. A gas fireplace provides a comfortable conversation space, and a bright seating area is surrounded by three sides of windows with access to the waterside deck. Here you will feel as though you are floating in the trees! Adjacent to the living room, the dining area and gourmet kitchen continue the great room configuration which invites the natural beauty inside through all the glass. The kitchen gleams with granite counter tops, top-of-the-line stainless steel appliances (including a 6-burner dual-fuel range, Advantium microwave, and trivection wall oven) and exquisite custom cabinets.
