Description

A RARE OPPORTUNITY to own a piece of Roanoke Island history. This charming craftsman-style bungalow, built in 1930, is nestled behind a white picket fence on just over half an acre of lush landscaping and specimen plantings. A stroll around the grounds brings a sense of peacefulness and appreciation for nature#039;s beauty. This gardener#039;s paradise includes a shed with a potting area and outdoor shower surrounded by grapevines, multiple fruit-bearing trees (chestnut, pecan, pear, persimmon, and mature fig trees), and a small Koi pond awaiting attention from the next owner. Formerly used as a studio/office, an almost magical cedar shake structure offers numerous opportunities for a craftsman or artist to hone their skills. A large street-facing, detached garage provides exceptional storage and space for a woodworking shop, a boat, a collectible car, or other hobbies. Entering the home from the rear, you#039;ll be greeted by a stunning native Umbrella Magnolia offering seasonal displays of spring flowers, summer and fall fruits, and smooth gray bark in winter. The home has been lovingly updated, and the pre-listing inspection (available to serious prequalified buyers) highlights areas needing attention. The report indicates the home has been rewired and replumbed. The owner has taken steps to ensure the home is safe and watertight. Recently, the home was cleared of all personal property and deep-cleaned, revealing beautiful oak and pine flooring. As you walk through the home, the sturdiness of its structure and the integrity of its original framing are readily apparent. Significant renovations include an ensuite bathroom with vaulted ceilings and a spacious reading area with a wall of windows overlooking the gardens. Another renovation repurposed the back porch, incorporating it into a remodeled kitchen with quarry tile flooring, a tile backsplash, a vaulted breakfast room, and establishing a large rear entry area with an inside laundry space. The dining and living rooms retain their original gracious design for gathering friends and family. The ground floor also features an ensuite primary bedroom. The second floor offers three additional bedrooms and a full bath, with all bead-board walls and ceilings original. Step outside to the broad front porch to enjoy the serenity and sounds of nature. Many windows have been replaced with ANDERSON products, though some window hardware needs attention as noted in the inspection report. The plumbing includes galvanized and PEX piping and the water heater is a 2010 NORITZ LP gas tankless on-demand unit located outside in an enclosure. The home has two heat systems: a 2005 York Heat Pump combined with a gas furnace for the ground floor, AND A NEW TRANE 2024 14.2 SEER-2Ton HEAT PUMP with a NEW 2024 TRANE AIR HANDLER AND THERMOSTAT FOR THE SECOND FLOOR. The home is being sold AS IS, and we are happy to provide a copy of the pre-listing Home Inspection Report dated 4/1/2024 for prequalified buyers.
