UNRESTRICTED WATERFRONT HOME! A residential offering, unlike any other for your waterfront escape! Imagine the possibilities.... Located on scenic and deep Riggs Creek, at the periphery of most development, a protected location for your fleet and just around the corner from undeveloped Bonner Bay, the Bay River and the Pamlico Sound!! The property is UNRESTRICTED by deed, allowing you a degree of freedom & use almost impossible to find anymore. The private location is reached at the end of a long private, shared alley/driveway. As you enter the property you'll be greeted by a unique array of buildings... The home awaits on the right, elevated high for views and an amazing 25' x 70 ( 1750 sq. ft.) Quonset-style workshop/garage/storage/everything building is elevated to the left, high above any flood risk! The home's 8' x 42'6'' sundeck ushers you into a large living area which is by turns open and cozy. The living room has a lovely library seating area and vaults 22'+skyward giving bright and airy access to the waterside 11'6'' x 30'6''screened porch and connects with the dining room and open-concept kitchen. Lots of light from the window wall to enjoy. A short hallway for access to the master and guest bedrooms. Upstairs is a large bedroom area with bathroom, office area and an overlook to the downstairs! The home needs some cosmetic finish and floor covering upstairs, but it is a perfect chance to put your finishing touches on a splendid residence! Enjoy drinks & the sunsets from the screened porch & watch the boats at your private pier with a boatlift and a 50' slip for your yacht! The waterfront has a wooden bulkhead and an old garage and well house which you could renovate or remove. The Quonset building has parking under and is an amazing place! Stout enough to drive vehicles into (via a 70' ramp) and features a large deck, 23'10'' x 59' work area with power/heat as well as a 9'7 x 14' radio room & 1/2 bath! A unique waterfront value to see and to appreciate!!
