Property Description
A Private Compound with Breathtaking Views of the Roanoke Sound Driving through the gates of this magnificent oasis, one can sense the luxury and peacefulness of unparalleled beauty. Outdoor living and entertaining is a grand experience in the beautifully maintained “Secret Garden” complete with waterfalls, pathways, and a luxurious Garden House equipped with a library, beverage bar and upper-level balconies overlooking the impeccably manicured gardens. It is the perfect idyllic setting for quiet dinners or expansive events…or just for a private moment in nature. From weddings to political events, or just family gatherings this private space provides the perfect setting. The main house boasts a tranquil panoramic view of the Roanoke Sound with approximately 400 feet of waterfrontage. Across the Roanoke Sound there is unobstructed views of Jockey’s Ridge, the tallest sand dune on the east coast of the USA; and the Wright Brothers Monument, where Orville and Wilbur first took flight. The sunrise from the front porch of the main house is unparalleled. Just outside the main house is a gorgeous swimming pool with stunning water views, offering a relaxing playground for all family members. On the bank of the Roanoke sound there is a dock for a boaters paradise. For the avid fisherman, your boat can be at your back door and just minutes to some of the best fishing on the east coast. The main house was first built in 1910 and features three levels, with the first level hosting the kitchen, living, and dining areas along with the master bedroom with ensuite bathroom. Just off the master and living area is a covered, screened in porch to admire the panoramic water views. The second floor hosts four guest bedrooms with a shared bathroom. And the third floor mancave offers an office with views, lounge/bonus room, and full bathroom. This delightful estate features a well-equipped three-bedroom guest house complete with a lounge/game area with bar on the first floor. Three bedrooms and Two Baths, open concept living, dining, and kitchen. It also offers decks off of the master bedroom and living area. There is an expansive two car garage that boasts storage shelves and plenty of extra space. Centered on the 8+ acres of professionally landscaped grounds is an enchanting waterfall fed Koi pond with a multi level deck that overlooks the grand gardens, pond, & gazebo which will calm the soul at the end of a busy day. This expansive family compound offers seclusion and is a rare jewel set on one of the highest original vegetated sand hills on the north end of Roanoke Island. From the spectacular water views to the quietness of the Secret Garden, this family compound is a one-of-a-kind treasure and is in close proximity (less than 1.6 miles) from the Dare County Regional Airport (MQI).
