The perfect get-away: a custom build log home with a magnificent view of the Albemarle Sound. You must see this house to appreciate its detail and character. (Virtual tour available at ForSaleByOwner.com) It sits on a one-acre waterfront lot with 200 ft. rock bulkhead. The property includes a 16 x 20 shop and a 12 x 12 greenhouse. The house has 2000 sqft heated living space with two bedrooms, two and a half baths, a very large great room, an office/breakfast nook, a climate controlled loft (office or loft could be used as a third bedroom), a cozy back porch, and a waterfront porch large enough for entertaining and a 26 x 16 deck with a fish pond. The master bedroom suite has a 14 x 15 bedroom with French doors that open onto a 15 x 8 screened-in waterfront porch. The suite includes a large custom designed walk-in ceramic tile shower with a rainfall showerhead and a bench seat with a handheld shower massager. The bath area has two pedestal sinks, a dressing table and an 8 ft. linen closet. The suite also has a large dressing area /walk-in closet complete with a washer and dryer. The guest bedroom suite has a 12 x 14 bedroom that has a private bath with whirlpool tub/shower and a custom built vanity (an antique washstand with a built-in porcelain sink and a wall mounted faucet). The great room is 25 x 30 with an 18 ft. cathedral cypress ceiling. The custom built cultured stone fireplace has a gas log insert. There are two bay windows: one has a built-in bench seat and the other is large enough for two arm chairs and a reading table. The dining area is included in the great room with enough space to comfortably seat 10 people. It has a fully furnished U-shaped kitchen with marble countertops, hickory cabinets, and stainless steel appliances (Jenn-aire range, side-by-side refrigerator/freezer and dishwasher). This area also opens onto the 46 x 8 covered waterfront porch. The office / breakfast nook has two built-in bookcases, custom built countertops with storage underneath, and a small (will seat four) breakfast nook. This area is flooded with natural light from 5 windows plus an 8 ft. picture window looking out to the sound. Outside access is to a 8 x 13 balcony. The 10 x 14 climate controlled loft opening off the great room would make a great kid's bedroom. A unique covered porch at the street entry leads into the foyer that has a custom designed ceramic tile floor. The rest of the house has solid oak floors with the exception of the dressing area /walk-in closet and the bathrooms that are all ceramic. The house has central heat and air, ceiling fans in every room, a tankless hot water heater and a DirectTV satellite system. The heating system, water heater, Jenn-aire range, and the fireplace all use propane gas. All other appliances are electric. It has county water and its own septic system. The asking price is $424,900* and includes the following: 1. The house, shop, greenhouse (a nice little vegetable garden) and one acre of land. 2. Fully furnished (all furniture and appliances are less than three years old with the exception of the bedroom furniture ). 3. A new 6500 watt gas powered electric generator that has never been used. *We will consider negotiating the asking price of the house without the furniture.
