Your enticing waterfront getaway on deep and protected Spring Creek awaits, literally ''just around the corner'' from the ICW & the endless waters of the Pamlico Sound! Situated with utmost privacy on over 4.4 acres of deeply wooded waterfront acres, this two bedroom cottage is ready to deliver you a setting unlike any other! The moment you drive onto your long private lane, flanked by the mature avenue of trees, you'll feel the cares of the world melt away. Your arrival at the residence, elevated gracefully above the fray, is welcoming & embraced by the naturalized surroundings... Allowing an unfolding of the delightful water views, which become more apparent and compelling with each step up the entry staircase. The amazing amount of creek frontage you possess (over 640' !) allows a sense of control over all surrounding vistas and a choice of locations from which to construct your pier. The home is low-maintenance and has served perfectly for many years as a family and artist's retreat. The abundant scenery and wildlife offers endless subjects for enjoyment, photography or painting. As you enter, the dramatic ceiling vaults to over 20' to the sunny loft area. The living room has a fireplace and communicates openly with the cheerful dining area and the efficient cottage kitchen - all with great views across the wraparound porch/deck to the waters beyond! A private master bedroom occupies a quiet corner and it has the laundry closet & bath (w/ whirlpool and shower) close by. The upstairs operates as a huge suite, with full bath, large bedroom and lofted family area, which has been used for extra guests. Plenty of storage in the house and under, too. The understory has two garage doors & potential workshop area, too. The screened porch is off the dining area and would be splendid for al-fresco meals. The deck is sunny and connects to a covered seating porch. Lots of expansion room and acreage here at your private waterfront ''Shangri-La'' ! Great fishing & boating!
