Escape the ordinary in this architecturally unique custom home located in a waterfront community with a private pier and boat ramp. Designed to bring the outdoors inside, the home features large windows wrapping nearly every wall, filling the interior with natural light and peaceful wooded views. Thoughtful updates completed since 2023 have transformed this property into a calm retreat that feels both relaxing and fun, offering spaces to unwind, gather, and enjoy lake living.
The main level features Australian Cypress flooring and two bedrooms, each with its own ensuite. The primary suite includes French doors opening to a private balcony overlooking the backyard, creating a quiet place to start or end the day. The kitchen with stainless steel appliances and adjoining living areas are open and bright, highlighted by the home's curved wall of windows that gives the space its signature character. The lower level is designed for entertaining, offering new LVP flooring, a spacious living and game room, a custom wet bar with granite countertops, new cabinetry, shelving, and a beverage refrigerator. A large stone gas fireplace anchors the room, making it inviting for cozy evenings or hosting guests. This level also includes an additional bedroom, full bath, and laundry area, providing flexibility for family and visitors.
Outdoor living is a highlight of the property. The decks and stairways are well maintained and freshly painted, connecting multiple outdoor spaces including a private balcony off the primary suite, a main-level deck for dining and grilling, and a shaded hammock lounge beneath the deck. A circular stone fire pit creates a gathering spot for evening conversations and stargazing. The enlarged circular driveway features compacted aggregate to accommodate boats and trailers with ease.
Landscaping improvements include a raised planting bed of roses at the entrance, butterfly bushes along the drive, paver walkways, and pea gravel beneath the deck, creating a welcoming and low-maintenance outdoor setting. A detached extra-large two-car garage with workshop and an attached oversized carport provide ample storage for vehicles, lake toys, and hobby space. The garage is equipped with electric doors and heavy-duty overhead steel storage racks.
Residents enjoy easy lake access through the community's private launch area for boats, kayaks, paddleboards, and jet skis. Conveniently located to Raleigh and Richmond, this home is well-suited for full-time living, a weekend getaway, or rental use. The property has been an income-producing short-term rental and may be purchased as a turn-key STR investment. All major appliances and most furnishings can convey with an acceptable offer.
