Introducing 13 Water Street, a truly special cedar and stone retreat tucked away on .65 acres along the edge of picturesque Clendaniel Pond, a protected 33-acre former millpond rich with natural beauty and wildlife. Every season brings its own magic to this peaceful freshwater setting. Spend your mornings watching eagles swoop down to fish, industrious beavers at work along the shoreline, and the occasional river otter gliding through the water, As evening falls, the gentle chorus of frogs fills the air while a symphony of birds welcomes each new day. This is more than a home; it is a private sanctuary immersed in nature! Surrounded by mature trees, the home’s rustic charm is immediately evident with its cedar and stone façade, side-entry garage, and impressive double-door entry. Step inside and your eyes are instantly drawn through the home to breathtaking pond views framed by the wooded backyard beyond. Beautiful plank hardwood flooring flows throughout the living spaces, while two striking stone fireplaces add warmth and character, one anchoring the living room and another creating a cozy retreat within the primary suite. The living room is flooded with natural light from a dramatic palladium window and a wall of glass doors that lead to the expansive wraparound deck overlooking the pond. The spacious kitchen blends rustic character with modern convenience, featuring granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, a gas cooktop, wall convection oven, wood-beamed ceilings, and a casual dining area perfect for everyday gatherings. Just beyond, a more formal dining space is wrapped in windows that invite the outdoors in, while tile flooring in the kitchen offers ease of care. Tucked behind the kitchen is an impressive family room with soaring cathedral ceilings and endless flexibility. Generously sized, this space can easily accommodate both a comfortable family room and a dedicated home office area. Added in 2019, the sunroom offers front-row seats to the tranquil pond and surrounding wildlife, creating the perfect space to unwind year-round. The main-level primary suite is a peaceful escape complete with its own stone fireplace, deep walk-in closet, en suite bath, and direct access to the wraparound deck where serene pond views await. Upstairs, two additional bedrooms each feature walk-in closets and private Juliette balconies, offering charming personal retreats. A hall bath with a soaking tub completes the upper level. The side-entry garage is complemented by an expansive driveway offering plenty of parking for guests and everyday convenience. Thoughtfully designed for ease of accessibility, the home features no steps from the garage into the interior living space, along with extra-wide passage doors throughout portions of the home, creating comfortable flow and added functionality for a variety of lifestyles. Outside, the property continues to impress with a storage shed, fenced backyard area ideal for keeping pets safe, and thoughtful conveniences including central vacuum with attachments, an electronic doggie door, and an electronic pet collar that conveys with the home. Every detail of this one-of-a-kind property has been designed to embrace comfort, nature, and the beauty of waterfront living.
