Rare Opportunity on Hyco Lake, to find 10.40 acres and a house with such a rich historic and architectural significance. Built in 1840, some called in Burleigh, or others called it The Mcgehee-Phifer house, with work done in the house by acclaimed craftsman, Thomas Day. Original floors, staircases, windows, porches...just unbelievably gorgeous. Wonderful porch rocking views of Hyco Lake. Double slip boathouse, with deep water, over 600 ft of shoreline, and nice quiet cove. House has 4 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, huge walk up attic. Guest house has 1 bedroom, 1 bathroom, and a huge walk up attic also. Garage, workshop, old barn, and another old house (that you can repair and bring it back to its glory).
