OCEAN CITY, MD21842

Goose Island at 1546 Teal Drive, Ocean City, Maryland is a truly unique offering — the bay’s only island estate. Located off 15th Street in downtown Ocean City, the property offers a remarkable balance of seclusion and accessibility, 3 blocks to the Boardwalk and beach, minutes to the Ocean City Inlet and Assateague Island by boat, and a block from Harbour Island, home of the world-renowned White Marlin Open. Hidden behind a brick wall extending along the property line and accessed through a 6-foot gate, the arrival experience continues across a private 120-foot vehicular bridge from Mallard Island. The island encompasses more than 3 acres of native marshlands and landscape with panoramic views of the open bay, the Rt. 50 Bridge to the south, the Rt. 90 Bridge to the north, and the rare combination of both breathtaking sunrises and sunsets across the water. Architecturally, the home is an iconic shingle-style residence. Inspired by Nantucket architecture, the residence underwent extensive exterior renovations and architectural enhancements under the direction of renowned Lyman Perry Architects Ltd. of Nantucket, Massachusetts, with Lyman Perry personally consulting on the estate. The approximately 5,000-square-foot home blends timeless design with exceptional craftsmanship, featuring custom woodworking, Carlisle wide-plank hand-finished pine flooring, new Andersen doors throughout, approximately 3,250 square feet of wraparound deck, and a resort atmosphere. Upon entering, a dramatic 24-foot atrium features an expansive 12-foot by 15-foot overhead skylight and a floor-to-ceiling 24-foot Coral Rock fireplace feature that anchors and connects the surrounding living spaces while filling the home with natural light. Designed to maximize open bay views throughout the home, the main living area features custom built-in cabinetry and entertainment center while flowing naturally into the separate dining and gathering spaces. The open-concept kitchen/family room floor plan creates an inviting living area designed for entertaining. Custom solid birch painted cabinetry by Premier Cabinetry of New Holland, Pennsylvania, includes a generous center island with a 5-foot by 8-foot teak countertop. A custom wood spiral staircase in the kitchen/family room provides secondary access to the upper level. The main level also includes a home office with built-in cabinetry and concealed pull-out file storage, along with an additional guest bedroom and full bath. Upstairs, an open bridge hallway overlooks the atrium and Coral Rock feature while separating the primary suite from two guest bedroom suites. The four-room primary suite consists of a bedroom retreat with access to a bayfront deck, a combined sitting, entertainment, and dressing room with vaulted ceilings, custom cherry wood built-ins and four closets, an en-suite bath with double vanity and dressing table, and a second dressing room featuring vaulted ceilings, four double-door deep closets, and an arched window with window seat dividing two built-in tall chests totaling 30 drawers. Two additional upstairs bedrooms each feature en-suite baths and private decks. Outdoors, the property transforms into an island retreat with a pool and spa by Sea Glass Pools, expansive decking, a large entertaining gazebo bar with cabinetry and quartz countertops, a full bath with shower, and protected docking facilities with parallel docking along approximately 1,600 feet of bulkhead, a 10,000-pound 2024 boat lift, and a fish cleaning station. Significant recent investments include bulkhead improvements, reinforced helical pilings, extensive bridge renovations, active security and surveillance systems, and meticulously maintained structural and mechanical systems. Surrounded by abundant birdlife including osprey, great blue herons, great white egrets, snowy egrets, mallards, and bald eagles, along with endless open-water vistas, Goose Island is a distinguished estate defined by timeless elegance.
