Property Description

Welcome to the William J. Wrightson House, a beautifully restored c. 1897 residence where historic St. Michaels charm meets exceptional modern comfort. Located in the heart of town and just steps from the waterfront, marinas, shops, and restaurants, this distinctive 3-bedroom, 3-bath home offers an extraordinary opportunity to enjoy the very best of Eastern Shore living. Extensively renovated with an emphasis on quality and craftsmanship, the home has been updated from top to bottom. Improvements include new HVAC systems, tankless hot water heaters, updated wiring, encapsulated crawl space, new roof and gutters, recessed lighting, high-end appliances, three renovated baths, a custom butlers pantry, complete interior and exterior painting, and improved patio drainage and grading. Natural light fills the gracious interior, highlighting heart pine and yellow pine floors, custom millwork, and beautifully appointed living spaces. The living room, anchored by a new gas fireplace, flows naturally into the formal dining room and gourmet kitchen, which features quartz countertops, top-tier appliances, generous cabinetry, and custom built-ins. At the rear of the home, the extraordinary sunroom overlooking the English garden, provides an inviting space for relaxed gatherings or entertaining. Vaulted ceilings, shiplap wall treatment, custom built-ins, and butlers pantry with beverage chiller and bar sink make this room the heart of the house. French doors open to the brick patio and beautifully landscaped gardens. The second floor offers a serene primary suite with a luxurious marble bath, clawfoot soaking tub, antique vanity, and glass-enclosed walk-in shower. Two additional bedrooms and a beautifully renovated hall bath provide comfortable accommodations for family and guests. Outside, a private English garden creates a picturesque retreat, with roses, crepe myrtles, and hydrangeas framed by a charming French Gothic lattice shadowbox fence. Beautifully restored, thoughtfully designed, and ideally located, this is historic St. Michaels living at its finest.
