About This Home
Set on a hill at Paynes Point surrounded by water sits this beautifully decorated contemporary home. You'll feel like you're on vacation year round with artistic elements throughout the home and just a short stroll to Clark's Beach. Bright open spaces with vaulted ceilings, natural gas, and private yard. The living room with high ceiling offers a gas fireplace and hardwood floors. This leads to the dining room and beautifully refreshed kitchen with an island feel. The eat-in kitchen is a work of art with handcrafted tile mosaic backsplash, reclaimed barnwood island, and granite counters. Two bedrooms and a full bath complete the first floor. Upstairs is the primary suite oasis with a sitting room that leads to a balcony overlooking the back yard. The bedroom offers an amazing walk-in closet designed to resemble a boudoir right out of Bridgerton! A full bath completes this gorgeous space. Other features include a full unfinished basement, two car garage, whole house generator, composite deck and central a/c. Welcome Home!
