Exquisite Magothy Waterfront on Gibson Island

May 30, 2024 – Gibson Island, MD

A newly constructed, custom, waterfront, simply spectacular Magothy River property on private secure Gibson Island awaits its new owners. Designed by highly regarded Vincent Greene Architects, this stunning, beautifully constructed four-level French Provincial style home was built with only the finest materials by top-tier builder, Lynbrook of Annapolis. Encompassing more than 12,000 square feet, and completed in 2020, this six-bedroom, six full bath/four half bath property includes a chef’s dream kitchen with two pantries, a large, screened porch, a great room, and den. Two large bedroom suites are on the main level. 

There are three woodburning fireplaces, one of which is in the kitchen and can be used as a pizza oven. A second front entrance opens to a mudroom with custom lockers and directly accesses the oversized garage. In addition to four bedrooms, the second level includes an upstairs library with secret door entrances to the bedrooms on either side, an office, a laundry room, and a substantially sized loft that would make a fabulous studio or hang-out room. 

On the lower level is a movie theater with stage, a gym, wine cooling area, and a large rec room. Located on a quiet street on the backside of the Island, and offering daily jaw-dropping sunsets, this gorgeous home is situated on a beautiful one-and-a-half- acre private lot. Designed for year-round living, it would also work well as an additional residence. 

Gibson Island is a private island within one hour of Washington, D.C. and Baltimore offering an absolutely extraordinary setting. The Island comprises 1000 acres with seven miles of shoreline. Two-thirds of the Island is undeveloped and is owned by the Gibson Island Corporation, the homeowners’ association. The remaining third is residential home sites. 

The Island is located on the western shore of Maryland, so there is no need to cross the Bay Bridge. On the Island is a 43-acre spring fed freshwater lake in which one may enjoy non-motorized watercraft activities such as paddleboarding, canoeing, kayaking, fishing and swimming. Gibson Island offers enormous privacy and security–there is an entry gatehouse staffed 24+Hours and the Island is patrolled by the Gibson Island Police Force (GIPD). The Gibson Island Corporation Service Department offers yard maintenance and landscaping and other services for homeowners. There is a full-service yacht yard. 

From the Island, it is just a 20-minute drive to BWI Airport and the neighboring Amtrak train station. The Island houses a private country club (membership by invitation) offering yachting, fine dining year-round, tennis, an award-winning Charles Blair Macdonald-designed 9-hole golf course, swimming, croquet, skeet shooting, and more.
