A Singularly Beautiful Bachelor’s Point Home

By Lisa J. Gotto

Gorgeous wood treatments and custom features will surround the new homeowners of this striking waterfront residence. Located in the highly-desirable enclave of Bachelor’s Point in Oxford, this craftsman-style home affords stunning sunset views with the Tred Avon River as a backdrop.

Guests will arrive in style to this residence via a circular driveway and once through the front doors they’ll encounter bright and amazing perspectives through an architecturally-striking wall of windows overlooking the expansive riverfront.

Vaulted, cathedral ceilings with impressive timber treatments are the hallmark of this great room, which flows endlessly to include a cheery barn-red kitchen with granite countertops, a center island with seating for three, and custom cabinetry. The kitchen then opens to a large informal dining and gathering space. The main level offers the new homeowners the convenience of a riverfront-facing primary suite with light wood floors and en suite bath, as well as another guest bedroom on the main floor. Two additional bedrooms can be found on the home’s upper level along with an absolutely stunning and spacious home office with large windows and generous built-ins for books and document storage. A charming upper-level observation point is centrally located for outstanding sightings of water fowl and maritime activity.

The home’s lower level offers an impressive wine room with the square footage to store hundreds of bottles. The property also boasts a workshop, an attractive gazebo, and generous outdoor patio space for entertaining.

Lovers of the yachting lifestyle will especially appreciate this property’s proximity to a deeded deep-water slip at Bachelor

Point Harbor on the private homeowners’ side of the basin. This quiet basin is limited to traffic from slip holders only and is located at the confluence of the Tred Avon and Choptank Rivers, so outdoor recreators are just minutes away from nearby fishing grounds and open waters from which to set sail!

“For my buyers, the decision to make Talbot County their full-time residence was an easy one,” says agent Wink Cowee of Benson & Mangols Real Estate. “When searching for a new home, their focus was not only on location, but also on view. Bachelor’s Point offers breathtaking, broad water views, sunsets, and a sandy beach plus a protected, private marina for the owner’s boat.”
