Property details

About 52 Sheffield Ave

Secluded 75' of water frontage on the marshes of Chowan Creek highlight this custom home at the northern end of a Cat Island peninsula. Crab dock is possible! New price after owners sold the adjacent lot, vacated the home, and now want to fully settle into their new residence. 2024 Appraisal suggests equity is now very strong if an equity line is needed for modifications. Long-range views and privacy both east & west for the main house and carriage house with outdoor entertaining areas from the expansive back deck extending to the water's edge, to the large screened porch off the kitchen. Beautiful heart pine floors throughout, along with a slate floor in the kitchen complement the 10' tall ceilings with custom crown molding. Uniquely tall two-over-two windows run the length of the house, highlighting grand views of the water, marsh, and mature landscape. A kayak / crab dock can be built with County approval. An architect-designed residence, the high-quality craftmanship & attention to detail create an atmosphere of warmth and comfort. The 1st floor includes outstanding living areas. The 2nd floor primary bedroom suite enjoys a large covered balcony, spacious bath w/ dual vanities, a generous walk-in closet, & another adjoining room with 14 large windows capturing priceless views which opens onto the balcony. Two more bedrooms and a shared bath complete the 2nd floor. On the 3rd floor is a 4th bedroom, currently used as an office, w/ half bath and access to an open balcony offering tree-top views. An enormous walk-in attic space on the 3rd floor extends around the perimeter of the house. The residence sits at 14' elevation & closer to the water than is possible with today's setbacks.
