Fantastic Chesapeake Bay views from almost every window of this four-bedroom home in a very private location! 1525 Shipsview is situated on 1.085 acres, and boasts 100 ft of Bay waterfrontage. The private pier, with boat lift, has room for several boats and has a water depth of 3-4 ft. Although it is a few steps down to the pier, the waterside yard is level with the house making a great entertaining area. Mature landscaping -- including fruit trees -- on the streetside provides privacy and pretty garden views.

As you enter, the views from the foyer are to the Chesa-peake Bay in front and the garden pool setting to the right through the dining room. There are hardwood floors through most of the main level, and windows dominate the waterside. The large living room has a wood-burning fireplace and built-in bookshelves. The formal dining room opens to the pool, and also provides access to the connecting hall for the pool-side powder room and garage. The family room, which could also serve as a 2nd main level bedroom, overlooks the front garden and has a fireplace. There is a full bathroom in the hall next to the family room. Recently remodeled, the kitchen has lovely cherry cabinets, a convection wall oven, warming drawer, microwave and ceramic cooktop. There is an island for extra prep space, and granite counters throughout. The kitchen is large enough to have room for a table by the waterside windows, and it opens to the screened porch.

A wonderful master bedroom suite completes the main level -- spacious bedroom with Bay views, walk-in closet, double sink vanity, whirlpool tub, and separate shower. Upstairs, there are three additional bedrooms and a full bathroom. One of the bedrooms has a vaulted, beamed ceiling, and another has a wood-burning fireplace.

A very private location yet close to Route 50 -- a wonderful escape!
