430 Magothy Rd
Price: $2,595,000
A 7.21 acre waterfront lot with 380 feet of shoreline on the Magothy River, this gorgeous lot is surrounded by numerous additional acres of wooded undeveloped land. Tailor-made for a nature lover, and offering complete privacy, a spectacular lot of this size is an extremely rare offering on Gibson Island. Renowned Washington D.C. architect Robert Gurney has created conceptual designs for a stunning contemporary home and pool to be built on this property, creating the opportunity to experience the surrounding natural environment from the home’s sleek interior, pool deck and courtyard. If you are seeking the amenities of living on Gibson Island and the ability to build the home of your dreams, this is a once in a lifetime opportunity.
By early December, Gibson Island Corporation should have a grading permit for this property. This will allow the Corporation to begin clearing the trees for the driveway and the homesite. Shortly thereafter the stone base for the driveway will be installed and the lot purchaser will be in an excellent position to begin building a new home on this magnificent property because the grading permit will make it much easier to obtain a building permit for a home. This also will save the buyer a great deal of time and effort. With respect to any critical area property, the grading permit is the most difficult permit to obtain.
List price is for lot only.
