Description

Privately set on 1.4 serene acres with over 200 feet of pristine Albemarle Sound shoreline, this custom-built coastal retreat offers unmatched privacy, panoramic water views, and craftsmanship rarely found in modern construction. Step inside to a bright, open foyer with a convenient half bath, where natural light immediately fills the home and intentional sightlines draw your eye straight to the water. The main living area features a spacious, open-concept layout with warm wood accents, custom trim details, a fireplace, and expansive windows that frame the sound from nearly every angle. The chef’s kitchen is designed for both beauty and function, offering quartz countertops, a gas-propane range, stainless steel appliances, a walk-in butler’s pantry, and hand-selected finishes that speak to the home’s craftsmanship. The dining area and living room flow seamlessly toward the water, providing sound views while dining, relaxing, or entertaining. The main-level primary suite is a true sanctuary, privately positioned with direct access to the screened-in porch. The ensuite bath features a custom tile shower with dual showerheads, a jetted soaking tub, a vanity, and custom-built walk-in closets. Multiple covered and screened porches and expansive decks extend the living space outdoors, offering year-round enjoyment of sunrise coffee, sunset dinners, and the peaceful stillness of Mashoes. Upstairs, a grand foyer opens to two additional primary en-suites, each with private deck access and sweeping water views. Two more bedrooms share the level, along with two custom-shelved flex rooms ideal for offices, craft rooms, studio space, or storage — all designed with thoughtful built-ins and natural light. Outside, the property unfolds into a true waterfront sanctuary. A 90-foot private dock extends into the sound, complete with a cleaning/fishing table for days spent boating, kayaking, paddleboarding, or fishing. A fenced backyard section offers added privacy and versatility for pets or play. The natural marsh backdrop and expansive shoreline create a setting that feels worlds away — where the only sounds are wind, water, and wildlife. Recent upgrades include a new metal roof (2024), interior and exterior paint (2024), and a new HVAC system (2025), ensuring comfort and peace of mind for years to come. Whether used as a primary residence, second home, or private coastal escape, this property delivers a rare blend of craftsmanship, serenity, and authentic Outer Banks waterfront living — an opportunity to experience the coast in its most peaceful and timeless form.
