Welcome to Holly House – A Rare Waterfront Legacy Estate on the Miles River
Holly House presents an extraordinary opportunity to own one of the Upper Miles River’s most captivating waterfront estates. Set gracefully on five spectacular, beautifully landscaped acres, this contemporary French-inspired residence offers approximately 150 feet of private shoreline, panoramic water views, and unforgettable sunsets.
Designed for effortless one-level living, the impeccably constructed brick home blends timeless architecture with endless potential. The current residence features a gracious living room, formal dining room, inviting den, spacious kitchen, sunroom, private office, study/optional bedroom, an elegant waterfront primary suite with dual bathrooms and separate walk-in closets, two additional en-suite bedrooms, a powder room, unfinished basement, and an attached two-car garage.
Outdoor living is equally impressive. A waterside 8-foot-deep swimming pool, expansive terrace overlooking the Miles River, private 150-foot pier, tennis court, and oversized outbuilding create an exceptional setting for entertaining, recreation, and peaceful waterfront living.
Whether you choose to thoughtfully refresh the existing home or create a spectacular new estate, Holly House offers an unmatched canvas to realize your vision.
Adding even greater value, the property includes fully approved architectural, structural, and interior design plans for an extraordinary three-story Modern Country French estate. Every detail has been thoughtfully curated to create a truly remarkable waterfront residence featuring:
● Five bedrooms, including a luxurious waterfront primary suite on the first floor
● Four-stop elevator
● Six full baths and two half baths (powder room and dedicated pool bath)
● Five fireplaces
● Grand staircase

The property has also received its long-awaited approval from Talbot County for a new 5-6 bedroom septic system, allowing construction to begin immediately. Fully permitted architectural and structural plans, along with a stunning full-color exterior fly-through video, are included with the sale.
For those wishing to personalize the design, the approved plans can be modified to reflect a buyer’s individual style and lifestyle needs.
