A rare and commanding Chesapeake Bayfront estate, this four-story residence stands as a statement of presence, privacy, and permanence within the prestigious Scotland Bayfront community.

Just beyond, an enclosed porch provides the perfect setting for moonlit crab feasts or oyster dinners, where the rhythm of the water becomes the evening’s soundtrack. This is coastal living as it was meant to be.Privately positioned on 1.94 acres of sandy waterfront, the estate boasts its own stretch of beach along the southern edge—an amenity of remarkable rarity.

A sitting area welcomes you upon entry, leading to a private wraparound deck with panoramic Bay views.
