411 Corsica Neck Road

Property Description

Historic Charm at "Lexon" – A Rare 18th-Century Gem Welcome home to the tastefully updated historic residence at 411 Corsica Neck Rd. Originally built in the third quarter of the 18th century, Lexon is a remarkable two-story brick home that blends early American architecture with 19th-century updates. Featuring classic Federal and Greek Revival interior detailing, this home offers a rare opportunity to own a piece of Eastern Shore history on over 10 acres of land - just outside of town. Tastefully remodeled to retain the historic character alongside modern conveniences, this home offers three spacious bedrooms including a primary suite with curly maple flooring overlooking the gardens with bonus office or library space. The kitchen has been beautifully updated and offers a pantry and coat closet off one of the entryways to the home. Off the kitchen is one of the main living spaces, connected to the screened in porch that overlooks the fenced pool and luscious gardens. The formal dining room offers the perfect place for social gatherings or quiet evenings by the hearth. A formal living room on the other end of the house is great for entertaining. The full basement and attic space plus detached 30x60ft barn / garage with partial second floor offer plenty of storage. Set along Corsica Road, the property showcases traditional elements including a pitched gable roof, Flemish bond brickwork, original 9/6 and 6/6 sash windows, and flush gable-end chimneys. The home’s layout reflects evolving design sensibilities over time — originally oriented southward, the primary facade was shifted to face Corsica Road in the early 1800s. Inside, you'll find carefully preserved mantels, moldings, and a striking staircase, as well as original partitioning and paneled walls that echo the craftsmanship of the home’s earliest days. Lexon is a rare blend of preserved architecture and historical context — ideal for those who appreciate timeless detail and heritage seamlessly blended with modern conveniences
