From the Agent: "Set on the bank of the Tred Avon River, this modern home utilizes white polished concrete supporting a Douglas fir butterfly roof, which celebrates the interplay of light and industrial craft. The home is the first of its kind on the Chesapeake Bay and it established an unprecedented environmental approach for Talbot County due to its habitat restoration and sensitivity to the site. Designed and completed with uncompromising engineering and architecture, the home has numerous notable highlights, including geothermal systems, radiant heated and cooled floors zoned throughout, a premium professional kitchen, and an ultra-high performance concrete rain screen. The property also comes with a long pier which can accommodate large sailboats, as well as 450 feet of shoreline framing views of the protected conservation land of Ratcliffe Manor."

Nestled amidst lush landscaping, far from the street, the home is a secluded getaway.
