A cozy and private home on two lots in Oriental Plantation! The residence is elevated gracefully and presides over a lovely location, taking full advantage of its water views of tranquil Smith Creek in the near distance. This is a beautiful opportunity to enjoy a special place that was custom built by noted builder Stuart Hardy and lovingly maintained by the original owners. Tucked away and unseen from the road, you'll see that the 3-bedroom (+ office) residence was carefully designed for low maintenance and comfort. The front porch ushers you into the hall from which the sunny vistas of the creek will guide you into the large, open living areas. They are arranged to allow the morning sunshine to welcome you through the bank of windows (with display shelving above) as you relax with family and friends! The kitchen is a cook's dream, featuring expansive counters and cabinetry, as well as counter seating. The master bedroom has a large ensuite bath, walk-in closet and direct access to the 11'7'' x 15'5'' screened porch w/ceiling fan and propane connection. You'll love morning coffee or evening cocktails here or on the adjoining 29'6'' long sun deck high among the trees. The layout of the other rooms are convenient and functional, with ample storage, including a large hall closet which was sized for the possibility of a future elevator! No details were missed with the home's plan... A large corner office, 2 guest bedrooms, all (including the master bedroom) with brand new carpet installed in August 2024! Under the house is a covered parking area, protected storage and a great 24'1'' x 21'9'' garage with spacious workshop/storage. Lots of space for all the projects you've wanted private space for. You'll be close to Oriental Plantation's amenity areas which include its clubhouse, pool and tennis (or pickleball) court and the community boat ramp! A 2nd autonomous lot is included, creating both a private buffer & a unique future investment! A ''must-see'' offering!
