Private Vacation Home
NEW! Gorgeous Waterfront Estate with pool, beach and dock
Cambridge, Maryland, United States
Treat yourself to this unique waterfront retreat where you’ll enjoy stunning ocean liner views of the Choptank River from nearly every room and the waterfront pool, and you and your dearest ones can't help but make lifetime memories. This sumptuous home and extensive grounds are part of an historic Maryland estate that also boasts more than 4400 square feet of living space. Here, on land that was once part of the DuPont family’s Chesapeake Bay retreat, you’ll find ample room to spread out, fun activities to engage everyone in your party, and plenty of modern creature comforts. brbr brbrMost of the amenities at Blue Water Farm are oversized and overlook the mighty Choptank River, starting with the manor house on the water’s edge that boasts 7 bedrooms, 4 ½ baths, a large living room with fireplace, formal dining room and two kitchens. brbr brbrBedrooms:brbrManor House’s Main Wing: A massive master bedroom suite with its own fireplace and full bath also has picture windows on three sides, so you can choose to watch the morning waves, oystermen and osprey from bed or a corner chaise lounge. Two more spacious bedrooms are down the hall - the Riverview Room with king-sized brass bed and the Great Blue Heron room with queen bed. brbr brbrSouth wing: The Palm Suite has a queen bed, its own full bath and a 100-year-old magnolia tree outside. Upstairs, the Cedar Room resembles a roomy captain’s quarters with a queen-sized bed, and the sunny Bunk Room has beds for six. A full laundry and mudroom is down the hall. brbr brbrGuest house/party room:brbrTo add to your options for fun, a large guest house is perched on the waterfront just steps away from the main house, with its own large billiards room, separate party room, bar, kitchen and the property’s 7th bedroom suite with full bath. Perfect for an informal dance party, karaoke night, a place to gather for the big game, or a separate teen hang-out space. brbr brbrOutside: brbrDip in the oversized pool or just take in the views from lounge chairs on the sunny brick deck. Grill on the outdoor patio, then dine alfresco, with seating for 20. Gather a dozen of your closest pals for cocktails on the comfy sofas on the extended three-sided screen porch, or at the end of the new 120-foot pier. Explore the private beach, perfect for bonfires, river swims and sunbathing, as well as a boat launch that's ideal for the kayaks we have on hand. On the spacious grounds, read a book in the hammock while the kids enjoy the private playset nearby. Feeling more ambitious? Hike through the 143-acre estate, along the shoreline or through the farm fields of our own Horns’ Point, the site of one the earliest English settlements on the Eastern Shore.brbr brbrOther things to notebrbr* Wi-Fi brbr* Two desks for work spacesbrbr* Two oversized smart TVsbrbr* No partiesbrbr* No petsbrbr brbrABOUT THIS RENTAL:brbrMain Housebrbr4400 sq. ftbrbrGuest Housebrbr1000 sq. ftbrbr7 bedroomsbrbr11 bedsbrbrSleeps 18-20brbr6 bathroomsbrbr5 full bathsbrbr1 half bathbrbrSpacesbrbr3 kitchensbrbrPool DeckbrbrScreened in Porch/PatiobrbrDining RoombrbrTV/party roombrbrBilliards room with pool table and barbrbrGuest house party room with smart TVbrbrOutdoorsbrbrHuge private poolbrbrPool deck with dining area, Adirondack chairs and sunning loungesbrbrLarge fire pit for bonfiresbrbrBoat launch with three kayaks on property brbrPier and boat dockbrbrGas grill and picnic tablesbrbrWant to explore the area?
