Your own piece of the Albemarle Sound is waiting! This charming waterfront home sits on a wide, open lot with a sweeping green lawn that rolls right down to the water and your own private pier. Mature shade trees, big sky, and wide open sound views make it feel like a true coastal escape the moment you pull in. Inside, warm wood paneling wraps the main spaces of the first floor, giving it that classic beach cottage charm you just can't fake. The open living, kitchen, and dining space is filled with recessed lighting and brand new flooring, with a cozy brick hearth to gather around. The kitchen offers tons of cabinet space, a gas range, and a long breakfast bar for morning coffee and easy conversation. Two sets of sliding glass doors (great views) open to the tiled sunroom, where the water views will stop you in your tracks. The main level also has a bedroom, a full bath, and a laundry room with a utility sink and extra storage, all with new flooring. Upstairs, the bedrooms are spacious, and one opens onto its own balcony overlooking the sound. Haven't we all dreamed of a balcony especially one over looking the water. Outside you'll find a workshop for projects and toys, room to spread out, and an enormous fig bush just waiting for homemade preserves. A whole house generator adds peace of mind, and historic downtown Edenton sits right across the sound. Come see it in person. You'll feel it the minute you pull in. The Albemarle Sound offers year round water sports including boating, fishing and sight seeing.
