Overview

Description

If you've been dreaming of a place where the dock is your driveway and the sunsets never disappoint, welcome home. Tucked away in the heart of North Carolina's oldest town, and in the desirable neighborhood of Catnip Point, this Bath Creek waterfront retreat has everything you want for hosting large gatherings and everything you need for a quiet night listening to the crickets sing. When you pull up to the property you will see a two-bay garage with plenty of storage and an attached work shop space. The gracious southern front porch, framed by towering crepe myrtles and anchored by a classic porch swing, creates a picture-perfect welcome. Step inside and you are immediately greeted with sweeping views of the water, vaulted ceilings and lots of natural light pouring into the living room with gas log fireplace. A half bath and formal dining room lead into the beautifully appointed kitchen featuring a striking blue tile backsplash, abundant cabinetry, a gas KitchenAid cooktop, and double KitchenAid wall ovens. Whether you're steaming crabs or hosting a low-country boil, this space was designed for gathering, complete with counter seating, a bright eat-in area, and water views as the backdrop. Next to the kitchen is a light-drenched sun room that could easily become your favorite spot in the house, a laundry room with stacked W/D, extra SS refrigerator, and additional storage, and a set of half steps up to a large bedroom with tons of closet space and a large recently added full bath with marble countertops. On the opposite side of the main floor is the primary suite where the theme of thoughtful storage (including a fully lockable closet with keypad access for privacy), sweeping water views, and well thought out amenities continues. The primary bathroom has a large soaking tub, walk-in shower, separate vanities, and a walk-in closet. Upstairs, a spacious landing currently accommodates extra beds for Fourth of July gatherings but would easily serve as an office or flexible bonus space. A large bedroom and a full jack and jill bathroom are to the left of the landing and to the right you have another large bedroom with full bathroom, and through that door you find a back stair-case from the kitchen area that leads to another large bonus space with newly added half bath. A covered back porch with retractable awning over the recently completed stone patio where a fire pit sits under twinkling lights ideal for telling ghost stories about Blackbeard, Bath's most infamous pirate resident. Three dedicated propane ports ensure effortless grilling and entertaining without the hassle of tank refills, let the good times roll! Neat-as-a-pin landscaping with river stone beds, pea gravel pathways, and a terraced riverside yard make it so you spend more time relaxing and less time working. A boat lift, jet ski lift, and large dock with bulk head make water access a breeze. 20-ton Generac generator and a high lot out of the flood zone make this a prime location. With new LVP flooring end-to-end on the first floor, updated bathrooms, and new lighting and fans throughout, no detail has been overlooked. This home has been thoughtfully transformed into the ultimate Bath Creek retreat. From a charming coffee shop and a classic hometown grill to the cherished annual Bath Fest and a new neighborhood market on the way, this is small-town living at its best. This is the one you have been waiting for!
