Private dock spanning out into the water for relaxing with a fishing pole, cool beverage or good book are an added bonus. Have your ''privacy and best social life, too!''

This property is surrounded by acres of woodlands with adds to the peaceful tranquility. When the home was built, careful planning went in to the design and construction. From the custom pine floors sourced from a 120 year old Carolina cotton mill to locally salvaged brick used in the fireplace and combination mud/laundry room, the home has so many treasured details. Combined with an amazing gourmet kitchen boasting an expansive island with high-end appliances, this home has everything to lead the market in luxury waterfront living. Sunrise. Sunset. Be ready for the jaw-dropping views and tremendous value and lifestyle this property has to offer. Just note that there is just one house like this house. If you want spectacular, this is it!
