About 1556 Widows Mite Rd
Welcome to 1556 Widows Mite Road, a stately custom brick estate gracefully situated on 1.7 acres along Glebe Bay in the prestigious Larrimore’s Point enclave of Edgewater. With over 5,000 square feet of thoughtfully designed living space, this waterfront residence blends classic elegance with modern comfort, offering sweeping views of the South River and out to the Chesapeake Bay. The home features four bedrooms and four and a half baths, including two spacious primary suites—one on the main level and one on the second floor—each appointed with a fireplace and generous closet space. The main level flows seamlessly from the formal entry into a dramatic great room with soaring ceilings and a stone surround, gas fireplace flanked by built-ins and a hidden TV. The gourmet kitchen opens to a screened porch ideal for indoor-outdoor entertaining, and both the kitchens and bathrooms were completely updated in 2020 with high-quality craftsmanship and finishes. The lower level also underwent a major renovation in 2020 and now features a custom bar, built-in cabinetry, a large cedar closet, a full bathroom with an adjacent workout room, and direct access to a newly added patio—perfect for relaxing or entertaining while enjoying the peaceful surroundings. The professionally designed landscaping, thoughtfully installed by the current owner, enhances the property's natural beauty and privacy. Additionally, an eco-friendly living shoreline—installed in partnership with the Chesapeake Bay Foundation—helps to preserve the waterfront, promote native habitat, and support long-term environmental sustainability. Enjoy resort-style living with a heated waterside pool and a gently sloping lawn that leads to a protected shoreline and a deep-water pier—ideal for boating enthusiasts. The oversized three-car garage offers ample storage. Located just minutes from Annapolis with easy access to both Washington, D.C., and Baltimore, and situated within the South River school district, this exceptional home offers a rare opportunity to enjoy private, luxury waterfront living in one of the Chesapeake Bay's most desirable settings.
