Along the water’s edge in Edgewater, this custom-designed home is shaped around broad views of Glebe Bay off the South River, visible from almost every room. A wrap-around porch on the main level keeps the shoreline close, while a private balcony off the second-floor primary suite offers a quieter vantage point for morning light and evening skies. At the center, a combined Great Room and Kitchen is smartly arranged to frame the expansive waterfront outlook, creating an easy rhythm for daily living and entertaining. With four bedrooms and three-and-a-half baths, the layout balances gathering spaces with comfortable retreat. Just steps away, days naturally drift toward boating, kayaking, swimming, fishing, and other water recreation—then back home to the calm cadence of bayfront living.
