Roomy & Ready for Adventures

By Lisa J. Gotto

This expansive contemporary ranch home on the Wye River provides the perfect jumping off point for many Eastern Shore adventures. The lush, two-acre property offers sprawling grounds dotted with numerous species of mature trees and expertly landscaped perennials. The exterior front of the home is accented with lovely, light-colored paving stones and brick-columned lamp posts.

Once inside the home’s side-lit paneled front door, a spacious, center hall entry greets visitors. To the left, the gleaming tiled entry flows into a spacious formal living room. Four, large front-facing win-

dows allow for a wealth of natural light to stream in. To the right of the entry hall an equally well-lit and spacious formal dining room provides a great venue for special family gatherings.

The entry hall leads to the heart of the home, its openplan family room and expanded entertaining space. At its center, the space is highlighted with a gorgeous, stacked stone, two-sided fireplace that flows through to the huge, pub-themed gathering space with a custom-made wood bar with surrounding stools. This room is also punctuated with soaring ceilings and a series of floor-to-ceiling windows. Sliding doors grant access to the property’s pool and patio area.

The family room also provides sightlines to the home’s large and sunny kitchen with all-white custom cabinetry and a separate eat-in dining area. Form meets function with the room’s integrated appliances, center prep island, and gleaming granite countertops.
