Heron’s Point is a charming single-story modern home at the end of a quiet country lane on a 7+ acre peninsula. This estate-like property features two modern dwellings: a 2,260-square-foot main house with two bedrooms and four bathrooms, as well as a guest cottage with three bedrooms and two bathrooms. Additionally, there is a barn, two sheds, and a dock with a boathouse.
Framed by the waters of Back Creek, the park-like grounds with walkways through mature trees provide a secluded, private atmosphere. The main house boasts an open floor plan that promotes a free-flowing division of space. A rich palette of natural materials, ceramic floors, wood cabinetry, and walls of windows that reveal the bucolic setting, contributes to a sense of tranquility.
The living room, complete with a fireplace and gas stove, along with dining room, kitchen, and family room are designed to be separate yet interconnected, creating excellent space for entertaining. A bright study leads to the waterside screened porch. The primary bedroom suite features two baths and opens to a waterfront deck. Off the deck is a distinctive greenhouse with a long creek view. A guest room with a bath and an office are located on the opposite end of the house.
The guest cottage, which has a kitchen and living room with a fireplace, is entirely independent. The dock with the boathouse is easily accessible by a paved walk that runs through the property. A large barn is ideal as a garage, boat shed, workshop, and recreation room. There are also two useful sheds for garden storage. Blending harmoniously with its surroundings, this compound offers the perfect Chesapeake Bay getaway.
