218 Row Boat Row, Bald Head Island, NC 28461 (MLS# 100186008)

This three-story, cedar-shake custom Telesis retreat- located in Bald Head's prestigious Harbour community- delights with waterfront panoramas as well as Bald Head Marina and Old Baldy views. From its charming paddle-fenced entry, with vined arbor, you can amble on the planked walkway around the house to the deep beachfront covered back porch and dining deck (and, ultimately onto your private beach access). Or walk up through the beautiful landscaping onto the rocking chair porch and into this reverse floor plan's first level. You'll love the Brazilian cherry floors and cove lighting throughout as well as the high beamed ceilings. This level features two large guest bedrooms, a full bath and laundry, elevator, plenty of storage and the grand Master suite- which is anchored by a wood burning or gas fireplace and indulges with aqua-vista views from its wall of windows, access to the covered porch, a HUGE walk-in closet and its spa-like en suite (with his/her vanity, glassed shower and Jacuzzi garden tub). Up the circular staircase, the second floor furnishes the same far-reaching water perspectives from its windowed wall as well as another wood burning/gas fireplace and powder room. The immense open living/dining space, filled with light from its second- story windows, provides the perfect venue for entertaining. Adjacent, the chef's kitchen-with bayed breakfast area - can accommodate several culinary artists simultaneously with its oversize island, Sub-Zero and Viking appliances, granite counters, large walk-in butler's pantry, myriads of built-ins and plenty of storage. Take the elevator or stairs to the top floor, you'll find another living space or office- with wet bar, half bath and step-out porch as well as a fourth bedroom with Marina prospects and tons of storage space. This home boasts new floors and ceilings throughout as well as a whole-house sprinkler and yard irrigation systems. BHI and Shoals Club memberships are available for separate purchase.
