Description

Waiting for you is your nautical coastal cabin nestled within walking distance to your deeded water access behind Mason's Inlet. Hand built by a boat builder in 1963, this Middle Sound brick ranch home boasts all the craftmanship of his creation and imagination. Approximately 90% of the wood for the home was procured and milled locally at the Burrow's Sawmill, close to what is now Ogden Elementary School. With over 1400 square feet of single level living, this creates the quaintest feel with the hand-crafted wood burning fireplace complete with a Black Bart forced air wood burning stove. The walls in the den are 3/8'' beadboard and the ceiling is 3/8'' maple trimmed in yellow pine. Artisanship like this is so hard to find and recreate in today's market. The nautical coastal cabin feel carries through into the kitchen where you will find natural finish pine tongue and groove cabinets; all appliances will convey. The floors throughout the main living areas of the home are composite for easy cleaning and maintenance. Chair rail molding, craftmanship and attention to detail are visible throughout the entire home. There are 3 bedrooms and 1 1/2baths. Within the home, the original living room has been a recording studio for many years but will yield easily for additional living space. As you make your way to the back deck and fenced backyard, not only are there two boat sheds, but there is an ample 12x24 workshop and an 8x10 toolshed. All of this is within walking distance to the boat launch capable of handling up to an 18-foot skiff along with kayaks, paddle boards, surfboards and other light watercraft. Wade fishing or fly fishing is at your back door! Do not miss the opportunity to feel the ocean breezes, smell the salt water and be safe and flood free at approximately 25 feet above sea level. (No flood insurance is currently held on this home; elevation certificate is the responsibility of the buyer.) When you return home after a long day of play, use the outside hot water access to hose off. Finish your day on the back deck overlooking the large corner lot with mature landscaping that has recently been updated. If this nautical coastal cabin draws you to coastal living, please make an appointment for a private showing.
