A sprawling 26.72-acre property nestled along the serene banks of the Wicomico River in Eden, Maryland has recently landed on the market — with a bang.
Listed at $2,690,000, it’s currently the priciest home listed for sale in the entire Wicomico County, surpassed only by a Delmar, MD empty lot (spanning over 40 acres) that’s looking to fetch $3.9 million.
Whitney Elliott with the Salisbury office of Coldwell Banker Realty in the Mid-Atlantic holds the listing.
The expansive Eden, MD property is anchored by an 8,252-square-foot estate that blends traditional charm with modern luxury and offers a rare opportunity to own a piece of riverside paradise — complete with a two-story observatory.
Built in 1988, this 4-bedroom, 4-bathroom home sits on a sprawling 26.72-acre plot, boasting 700 feet of waterfront complete with a private dock and two lifts, including one with deep water access.
The estate’s exterior is matched by its equally impressive interior, starting with a grand foyer and an elegant winding staircase that invites you into a world where modern conveniences meet classic design.
The heart of the home is its gourmet kitchen, a caterer’s dream equipped with top-tier appliances from GE Professional, Viking, and ILVE, and a sizable butcher block countertop.
The first-level primary suite offers waterfront views and luxurious comfort, while the house’s elevator provides convenient access to the upper levels.
Entertainment is a key feature of this property.
A bar and game room set the stage for social gatherings, and a 3,000-bottle wine cellar ensures a well-stocked selection for any occasion. For movie enthusiasts, the in-home theater, complete with a 10-foot screen and custom acoustics, provides an immersive cinematic experience.
Perhaps the most striking feature of this Eden property is its custom two-story observatory.
With a climate-controlled interior, this observatory houses a high-end telescope, leveraging advanced technology for an unparalleled stargazing experience.
Speaking of technology, the Eden, Maryland house has plenty of smart home features throughout — including a whole-home audio and lighting system, extensive ethernet connections, and a comprehensive home security system, ensuring both comfort and safety for its residents and guests.
The property doesn’t just impress with its luxury finishes; it also incorporates efficient living solutions. Various heating sources, including geothermal and liquid propane, are used throughout the estate.
The two wood-burning fireplaces add a cozy touch to the modern amenities.
When it comes to its outdoor appeal, the sky’s the limit. With well over 26 acres of land in an idyllic location, there’s plenty to do on the property, and future owners will enjoy a private dock with two lifts, including one with deep water access.
With so many intricate details, this Eden estate on the Wicomico River is more than just a house; it’s a lifestyle offering. From its sprawling river views to the unique observatory, it represents a blend of luxury, technology, and natural beauty rarely found in the real estate market.
This property promises a living experience that is as grand as it is intimate, a perfect sanctuary for those who appreciate the finer things in life, with the universe just a gaze away.
