1812 Skippers Row

As you come through the 24/7 Gate and cross the causeway to Gibson Island, you notice the Chesapeake Bay on your left and the Island's harbor on your right, the sail and powerboats in orderly formation on their moorings. Turning toward the Symington Monument you bear right onto Skippers Row, an aptly named lane as the residences were historically the home to many "Skippers" and captains who had an unobstructed view of their yachts resting in the protective waters of the harbor. Beautifully renovated and expanded Nantucket style 4 Bedroom, 4 Bath Nantucket style home. Covered porch with classic columns leads to the Great Room with coffered ceiling, woodburning fireplace, custom built-ins and wall of windows with French doors accessing the lawn and waterfront. The Great Room flows past the dining area to the custom Yorktowne gourmet Kitchen with granite, stainless steel appliances and walk-in pantry. 3 large Bedrooms, 3 Baths and a Laundry/Mudroom complete the main level. Added in 2003, the upper level comprises the sumptuous vaulted Primary Suite including a Study with built-in bookcases/desk, Bedroom with fireplace, built-in bookcase and Bath with large shower stall and walk-in closet- all with French doors to the elevated 530sq ft covered porch with beautiful water views.
