Neavitt is a village of +/-seventy houses located at the end of a peninsula surrounded by water. About 11 miles from the shops and restaurants of St Michaels, it is in another, much more peaceful world, with its own park and playground, a public landing with a launch for canoes, and an active community association. Most residents have retired or plan to retire from professional jobs in Washington, DC, Philadelphia, or Baltimore; others are teaching in St Michaels.
This home was thoroughly renovated in 2011 and the layout adapted for modern living, with light-filled rooms and a cleverly updated floor plan. The first-floor public spaces include a sitting room/office/entry, a generous living/dining room combination, and a handsome kitchen with water views, terrific storage, and room for a table and chairs. A laundry and full bath are down a short hallway. Outside, a wide porch with room for a table and chairs leads to a broad lawn that boasts a stone-paved setting for a fire pit and room for two or three additional chairs. This floor also features a totally private primary suite with full bath, abundant closets, cathedral ceiling and windows with a direct view of Balls Creek. The second floor has two generous bedrooms, plus a short stairway to a balcony and deck with spectacular water views. The house has been freshly painted, is newly carpeted, and has been professionally cleaned. AND there are no St Michaels or waterfront taxes!
