1100 STEAMBOAT ROAD

SHADY SIDE, MD 20764

Imagine: welcoming friends and guests as they approach your home by powerboat, sailboat, or stand-up paddleboard; greeting osprey as they return to their annual nesting spot to raise their young each spring; watching Wednesday night sailboat racers make their way out of the river; relishing spectacular year-round sunsets…And now imagine enjoying this incredible backdrop from the comfort of your living room, bedroom, or dinner table; from your deck, lawn, or private pier. For those looking to embrace the Chesapeake Bay lifestyle, this property is a dream come true. Welcome to 1100 Steamboat Road, a private oasis offering the best of waterfront living on the beautiful West River in Shady Side, MD. Sited at the end of Steamboat Road on a serene lot, this stunning property features approximately 133 feet of water frontage including expansive, 180-degree views of the West River, plus a 300-foot private dock with two slips (mean low water estimated at 7 feet for the first slip and 3.5 feet for the second). One slip has a motorized 20,000-lb boat lift; the second was previously configured with a lift with components available should a future owner choose to convert it back. Sailors and powerboaters alike will appreciate easy access from the dock to the channel in the river and the Bay beyond. The dock is outfitted with electricity, water, and two floating docks to accommodate dinghies, run-abouts, kayaks, or SUPs. The elegant, custom-built home, completed in 2006 under purview of the current owners, was expertly designed to enhance the setting. Most living spaces in the move-in ready 3-bedroom, 2.5-bath residence enjoy sweeping, unobstructed views. Among the many highlights are a main level with an airy, easy-flow layout great for entertaining, a gourmet eat-in kitchen, a private office (or 4th bedroom), a masonry chimney and gas fireplace, and a deck with a gas fire pit - a favorite spot for enjoying “top ten” sunsets. The second level includes a primary suite with two walk-in closets and a spa-like bath with separate WC, a family room with prime views and a private balcony, plus two additional generously-sized bedrooms sharing a hall bath. Thoughtful design elements include two staircases allowing for privacy between the primary suite and guest spaces when needed, an attractive elevator for convenient access between floors, and a whole house backup generator. A stand-alone garage provides covered parking for 3 vehicles, a sizeable workbench, and a substantial upper-level loft - great for extra storage or other creative uses. The well-tended yard includes an automatic irrigation system for lawn and landscaping. This special property also holds a place in local history: from the late 1800s to early 1900s, the steamboat “Emma Giles” docked here on a regular route from Baltimore to various points on the Bay (hence the name Steamboat Road). Today, it’s ready for your enjoyment as a weekend getaway or full-time residence, conveniently located less than 40 miles from downtown DC, approximately 20 miles from Annapolis, and less than 40 miles from BWI Airport.
