Agent's Comments

It's easy to see why this home is one that first bought HGTV to Hatteras Island in 2008! Originally built in 1930, this classic coastal cottage has undergone amazing transformations over the years with the most notable renovation transforming the kitchen into anyone's dream in 2022. Accessed by the front circular driveway or side entrance to the detached garage/workshop, you'll be welcomed by the front screened porch, covered side entry, or recent grand screened porch in the rear leading to the back foyer entrance. The kitchen's cathedral ceilings and open space are flooded with natural light and the island bar will be your favorite gathering space. GE Profile appliances, a farmhouse sink, shaker style cabinetry, and quartz countertops elevate the space. Additional storage cabinets are topped by butcher block tops that lend warmth to the kitchen and the LeCache Mission Credenza wine fridge in the dining area awaits your expansive wine collection. The comfortable and cozy living area includes a gas stove, and a first floor bedroom and bath round off this level. Upstairs is a primary suite with adjoining bath featuring a claw foot tub and separate shower, private balcony, and small room that may be used as a substantial closet or office space. The third bedroom is on this top level as well. Ask for the detailed list of features and updates and be sure to visit this unique and special home as soon as possible. It is ready for immediate occupancy with no obligations to a property manager for vacation rentals.
