Escape to the river at this private waterfront retreat on Goughers Creek, just off the Great Wicomico River. Custom built in 2021 by respected local builder Chip Hudnall, this exceptional home showcases quality craftsmanship throughout, including paneled solid wood doors, hand-milled moldings and banisters, and distinctive oar railings on the front porch and back deck steps. Designed for comfortable first-floor living, the home features an open floor plan filled with natural light and beautiful interiors that blend stone, wood, metal, and neutral finishes with timeless style and lasting quality. The well-appointed kitchen is the heart of the home, offering quartz countertops, stainless steel appliances, a GE Café induction range, Bosch dishwasher, under-cabinet lighting, pendant lighting, and bar seating. The kitchen flows seamlessly into the great room with recessed and sconce lighting, where sliding glass doors open to the waterside deck, creating the perfect space for entertaining or simply enjoying the peaceful surroundings. A waterside dining room provides beautiful creek views. The first-floor primary suite offers the convenience of main-level living with a walk-in closet and bathroom with tile floor, dual sinks and large tile shower. Also on the main level are a powder room and a spacious laundry room with Bosch washer and dryer, utility sink, and tile flooring. Upstairs, two comfortable guest bedrooms provide privacy for family and friends. Throughout the home you'll find 10-foot ceilings, wood floors, a Rinnai tankless water heater, Everlast PVC siding, composite decking, and efficient two-zone heat pumps for year-round comfort. Outside, the beautifully landscaped grounds are accented by lovely mimosa trees, a waterside deck, paver stone patio, large workshop with electricity and a lean-to, and an additional storage shed. Boaters will appreciate the private pier featuring an 8,000-pound boat lift, over 4 feet of mean low water, and easy access to the Great Wicomico River. Elevated outside the flood zone, the property offers a gentle, step-free path from the home to the dock, making waterfront living as convenient as it is enjoyable.
