Built in 2012 with exceptional craftsmanship, this custom Tidewater-style Cape offers just under 3,000 sq ft of thoughtfully designed living space, where timeless elegance meets nature's tranquility. The main level features a spacious primary suite with a private deck, perfect for morning coffee overlooking your own natural sanctuary. A flexible office or den and two full bathrooms offer versatility for work, guests, or multi-generational living. At the heart of the home is a striking two-story great room with a stone fireplace, seamlessly connected to a sun-filled, eat-in kitchen. Just off the kitchen, you'll find an oversized mudroom with a walk-in pantry, a half bath, and a private staircase leading to the bonus room over the garage - a layout that perfectly balances function and comfort. Truly a gem for modern-day living. French doors open to a double-height screened porch and expansive deck, creating an effortless indoor-outdoor flow ideal for seasonal enjoyment. Upstairs, a mezzanine landing overlooks the great room and connects two generously sized bedrooms and a full bath. The walkout lower level with 8' ceilings offers over 1,700 sq ft of storage space for future expansion.
