Property Description
At the heart of the home is a spectacular, sun-filled great room featuring soaring beamed cathedral ceilings, a grand fireplace, and French doors opening to a wonderful, large, screened porch overlooking the picturesque, partially wooded grounds. Designed for relaxed living and effortless entertaining, the home enjoys an easy connection to its beautiful outdoor spaces.
The main house offers three bedrooms, including a spacious main-level primary suite with a private den/sitting room, cozy gas fireplace, and recently renovated (2024) en suite bath with walk-in shower.
A charming flagstone breezeway connects the main screened porch to the separate guest cottage, creating an inviting retreat for family and friends. The guest suite features its own fireplace, full bath, kitchenette, and spacious screened porch with serene views of the surrounding landscape.
Set amid mature trees and established gardens, the expansive 1.7-acre property offers winter water views, exceptional privacy and a wonderful sense of seclusion. With its classic architecture, multiple fireplaces, gracious, screened porches, generous guest accommodations, and tranquil setting, 804 Rackham Road captures the relaxed elegance and enduring charm of Gibson Island living.
Information on Gibson Island:
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.
Gibson 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 provides 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 fully equipped yacht yard for boating needs, both power and sail. 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) with a magnificent clubhouse, an award-winning and challenging Charles Blair Macdonald designed 9-hole golf course, swimming, yachting, both power and sail, year-round fine dining, tennis, paddle, pickle ball, summer camp for children, croquet, skeet shooting, and more.
