‘eagle’s nest’ is an exceptional waterfront retreat overlooking island creek, just minutes from historic oxford. prime location with guest house and deep water (6.5′ mlw).
privately sited on more than four acres amid mature trees and meticulously landscaped grounds, this impressive main residence (5324 sf)—completely rebuilt by ilex construction in 2008—offers four bedrooms, four full baths, and two half baths. every room is generously sized and thoughtfully designed to capture expansive water views while providing elegant yet comfortable living.
the main level features beautifully appointed living spaces, including a formal living room with coffered ceiling, wood-burning fireplace, custom built-ins, wet bar, and sliding doors opening to the waterside patio. a formal dining room, enclosed by french doors, offers an inviting setting for entertaining.
at the heart of the home, the gourmet kitchen showcases a cathedral ceiling, large center island, top-of-the-line appliances, gas fireplace, spacious walk-in pantry, and custom built-ins—creating a warm and functional gathering space. the adjoining sunroom is filled with natural light and features vaulted ceilings, slate tile flooring, and sweeping water views, with glass doors opening to the patio and pool area. nearby, a well-equipped mudroom, laundry room, and half bath add everyday convenience, along with a covered breezeway to the two-car garage.
the desirable main-level primary suite serves as a private retreat with tranquil water views, dual walk-in closets, and a luxurious en suite bath. just off the primary suite corridor, a private office with custom built-ins and an additional powder room enhance the home’s thoughtful design.
upstairs, three generously sized guest bedrooms each include en suite baths. a comfortable sitting area opens to a balcony overlooking island creek—an ideal place to relax and take in the serene setting.
in addition, a coveted one-bedroom, one-and-a-half-bath guest house (968 sf) includes a full kitchen, living room, and attached two-car garage—perfect for visitors, extended family, or flexible use.
outdoor living is equally impressive, highlighted by a gunite swimming pool, expansive brick patio, mature landscaping, and extensive hardscaping designed to complement the waterfront setting. the private pier features two slips and a boat lift with 6.5′ mlw along a protected, riprapped shoreline.
