Description
Set on the natural bank of the Tred Avon River, This modern home utilizes white polished concrete supporting a Douglas Fir butterfly roof that celebrates the interplay of light and industrial craft. The home is the first of its kind on the Chesapeake Bay and established an unprecedented environmentalapproach for Talbot County due to its habitat restoration and sensitivity to the site. Designed and completed with uncompromising engineering and architecture while respecting and even improving upon the waterfront site. The brilliance found in the presence and life of the home is light and passive, yet its structure and materials are robust, it will outlive generations. Details include geothermal systems, radiant heated and cooled floors zoned throughout, a premium professional kitchen, and ultra-high performance concrete rain screen. The house and amenities sit at about an 18 ft elevation above the mean high water level and offer unattainable proximity to the shore, within 100ft. Complete the cottage and pool as you wish, add another guest room or a modern cabana. A long pier with two power lifts, and deep water can accommodate large sailboats. The beautiful exposures from the 450ft of shoreline enjoy views of the protected conservation land of Ratcliff Manor. Maybe once in a decade, if ever, will an opportunity like this come to the market.
