Property Description

Remarkable one of a kind 8 acre tract located on Sleepy Creek in Marshallberg. The house was designed after the second Chicamacomico life saving station, built in 1911, at Rodanthe on the Outer Banks. The station is now a museum. The house is very much like the station in appearance, including the sunken living room, which was the boat room in the station, cedar shake siding, wrap around porch, round columns, watch tower, and dormers, all reflecting the architecture of the Outer Banks. The house is in good condition. Very private location. Beautiful trees and landscaping. The property is in a flood zone, but there has never been any tide water up to nor under the house since it was built. There is a barn in the back yard , (the owner once had a horse). There is still some fencing. The barn is 575 sqft with a 15'x15' walk up loft, 12x15 stall plus a lean to. The house is 2850 heated sqft, with loads of storage. Great house for entertaining with 900 sqft of covered wrap around porch area. Many unique features adorn the home, such as custom wood and vaulted ceilings, cedar lined closets, an office that open to great room below, updated kitchen, large pantry with storage bench seat, storage nooks, and a 10x 11.5 pump house with water softener. Since 2020 the geothermal and regular heat pumps, roof shingles, and kitchen appliances have all been replaced. The septic tank was recently pumped as well. There are lots of windows for natural lighting and spectacular views. This is truly a must see, and shown by appointment only. Call today to schedule your tour.
