Amazingly well-maintained and updated, this near4,000-square-foot, mid-century modern home was built in 1979, but is all about 21st century sensibility and convenience.

Completely remodeled in 2017 and located on Lake Ogleton, this home’s exceptionally well-executed floorplan greets all those who enter with an enveloping wealth of natural light and stunning views from the home’s wall of windows facing the lake.

A thoughtful open floor plan with flawless, honey-colored hardwood floors, integrates beautifully with the home’s outstanding architectural elements which include a soaring two-story main level living area, and wood beam and bead board ceiling treatments. The main living area is a treat for the eye with its ultra-high ceiling and the clean lines of its integrated modern gas fireplace feature with white ceramic tile surround. This area flows into the home’s formal dining area that also benefits from the wall of windows and allows easy access through sliding glass doors to the home’s spacious, wraparound IPE deck with its 180-degree water views.

A gleaming all-white, gourmet kitchen can be entered from both the dining and living area and offers a complete stainless-steel appliance package, including a gas range with gorgeous, rustic wood hood detail and attractive white herringbone subway tile backsplash. A convenient corner island offers breakfast bar seating for three. A white beadboard ceiling and white wood beams overhead lend the room texture and warmth. The main level also offers a full bath and guest bedroom.

The second story landing and hallway showcases tranquil lake views through the home’s two-story window wall. The gorgeous, light-filled owners’ suite provides views on one side to the lake and the other to the tranquil woods surrounding the home. This room also offers an attractive slanted beadboard ceiling with white wood beams, and a bath suite with a large, glass panel shower, a mid-century modern vanity with dual sinks, and an attractive gray subway tile backsplash. Two additional, generously-sized bedrooms with large windows and one full bath are located on this level.

The home’s lower level offers a light, bright, and attractive multi-purpose space with a family entertainment area, and home gym and office flexibility.

Outside, the new owners are just steps from the lake with 150 feet of shoreline, a private dock with four boat slips, six-foot mean low water level, and direct access to the Severn River and Chesapeake Bay.
