**TWO NEW HVAC SYSTEMS GOING IN FROM AIR HANDLERS OBX AUG 31st, NEW ELEVATOR GATE FROM OBX ELEVATORS INSTALLED 8/17****Peacefully set on 1.4 private, tree-lined acres and wrapped in 200 feet of pristine Albemarle Sound shoreline, this custom coastal retreat doesn’t just sit on the water — it lives with it. Every angle, every finish, every quiet moment is crafted to pull you into the rhythm of Mashoes: still mornings, glowing sunsets, and the soft hush of wind and wildlife. Step through the front door into a sun-washed foyer, where natural light pours in and the first sightline leads straight to the sound — an intentional reveal that sets the tone for the entire home. The main living area unfolds in a warm, open layout, anchored by custom wood accents, detailed trim work, a cozy fireplace, and expansive windows that frame the water like moving artwork. The chef’s kitchen blends beauty with purpose: quartz countertops, a gas-propane range, stainless steel appliances, a walk-in butler’s pantry, and hand-selected finishes that speak to true craftsmanship. Here, cooking, dining, and relaxing all flow toward the water, creating a space where everyday moments feel elevated. The main-level primary suite is a sanctuary of its own — privately tucked away with direct access to the screened porch. The ensuite bath features a custom dual-head tile shower, a jetted soaking tub, a vanity, and custom-built walk-in closets, making the entire space feel like a personal retreat. Multiple covered and screened porches and expansive decks extend the living space outdoors, offering year-round enjoyment of sunrise coffee, sunset dinners, and the peaceful stillness that defines Mashoes. Upstairs, a grand foyer opens to two additional primary en-suites, each with private deck access and sweeping water views. Two more bedrooms share the level, along with two custom-shelved flex rooms perfect for offices, craft rooms, studio space, or storage — all bathed in natural light and designed with thoughtful built-ins. Outside, the property transforms into a true waterfront sanctuary. A 90-foot private dock stretches into the sound, complete with a cleaning/fishing table for days spent boating, kayaking, paddleboarding, or simply soaking in the quiet. A fenced backyard section adds versatility for pets or play, while the natural marsh backdrop creates a setting that feels worlds away. Whether envisioned as a primary residence, second home, or private coastal escape, this property offers a rare blend of craftsmanship, serenity, and authentic Outer Banks waterfront living — a chance to experience the coast in its most peaceful and timeless form.
