New Construction
St. Michaels, Maryland
Picture a warm July afternoon on the Eastern Shore of Maryland, perfect for a leisurely drive. While in St. Michaels, we serendipitously met a family who would partner with us to create their dream home. Captivated by a recently completed project, they reached out after purchasing land in the area to discuss the design-build process.
Eastern Shore Architecture
Eastern Shore, Maryland
Year Of Completion 2021
Our ultimate goal at Eastern Shore Architecture, truly is, building your dream home! In achieving that end goal, we also want to be sure that the form and function of the home, helps to enrich your daily life.
After getting to know our clients and better understand their daily life, we understood that family & fitness come first in this household. With health being the precursor to both of those things, an indoor gym, pool and endless water views took center stage in our design.
To accommodate family gatherings, we designed two spacious 18-foot primary suites—one on each floor—along with a bunk room featuring built-in beds. The layout also includes a large balcony, a great room, and covered patios, providing ample space for relaxation.
Given the active summer lifestyle typical of waterfront homes, we chose an elongated rectangular pool for lap swimming, complemented by a retaining wall that creates an infinity-edge effect with built-in waterfalls. This design allows the property to sit closer to the water while respecting local wildlife habitats.
The home blends two distinct styles: a warm farmhouse facade from the street and a modern aesthetic from the water. Highlights include a 20×8 square-foot gym overlooking the bay, expansive sliding doors, and over 35 energy-efficient windows. The striking rooflines and bold black and white colors create a stunning visual, especially at night when custom lighting showcases its elegance.
