Summary:

This isn't a typical waterfront rental.

Durham-Hythe Estate is a private 7.5-acre peninsula compound with over 750 feet of shoreline; designed for groups who want space, privacy, and a true Eastern Shore experience. Grab a cup of coffee or tea and watch the sunrise on the dock! Enjoy Chef-prepared meals while watching the evening sunset. Estate living includes swimming, spa time, cookouts, playing with your dogs in the 4-acre field, crab feasts, and relaxing in the raised rose garden!

Inside the main residence are three suites and one bedroom on the first floor, two bedrooms and a bathroom on the second floor, open plan kitchen with waterfall marble island, breakfast room, family bathroom, river room with vaulted ceiling, tv room, dining room, two feature fireplaces, shower room, powder room, mudroom, games room, pantry and reception room.

Outside is where the magic really happens with sun decks on each side of the property to relax and enjoy the water views, enjoy crabbing and prepare your catch in the crab shack, sit at the end of the dock and fish, or read your favorite book in one of the hammocks under the scented pine trees at the waters edge or simply unwind in the Adirondack chairs at the water's edge and watch the wildlife – eagles, osprey, heron, deer. For the more active members of your group there are two kayaks to explore the shoreline and discover the submerged island and the statue of Nelson, or enjoy a bike ride around the grounds, Neavitt fishing village, play ground, park and post office. Enjoy campfires around the fire pit and swimming in the pool, Frisbee, croquette and racket games on the lawns. For the more adventurous why not bike or kayak to St. Michaels or Tilghman Island on scenic flat roads or undulating waters. If the weather keeps you inside the games room will keep children and adults entertained with a pool table, ping pong, foosball, and more!



The nighttime enchantment alone at the estate will ensure an unforgettable stay. As the stars shine brightly and the moon rays shimmer across the rippling waters, take a walk along the ambient-lit pier and listen to the rhythmic sounds of Acadia and water lapping at the shoreline.
