Choptank River Modern Farmhouse Located along the tranquil banks of Maryland’s Choptank River, this modern farmhouse blends timeless architecture with relaxed coastal living. Designed by Lead Designer Leigh Mayhew, the home balances classic farmhouse forms with clean, modern detailing for a look that feels both fresh and enduring. A winding gravel drive leads to a crisp white exterior accented with dark windows and metal roofing. Traditional gables and dormers are streamlined through restrained detailing, creating an inviting arrival that feels rooted in place while quietly contemporary. Inside, light-filled spaces unfold with ease. White shiplap walls, warm wood floors, and a soft neutral palette create a calm, cohesive backdrop that allows the river views to take center stage. The home is thoughtfully oriented to embrace its setting, making the outdoors an integral part of daily life. The kitchen serves as the heart of the home, featuring a generous island, classic cabinetry, and matte black lighting that adds contrast and character. Designed for both everyday living and entertaining, the space feels timeless, functional, and welcoming. Living areas and baths continue the refined simplicity, with tailored finishes and natural light creating spaces that feel comfortable and serene. Throughout the home, the design reflects Leigh Mayhew’s approach—layered, personal, and effortlessly elegant. With seamless indoor-outdoor connections and sweeping river views, this Choptank River modern farmhouse is a true retreat—one that celebrates thoughtful design, quiet luxury, and a deep connection to its landscape.
