"Quietude" ~ Myers Creek ~ Minutes from the Corrotoman River



This finely-crafted coastal home is nestled into a wooded knoll overlooking a tranquil creek.

The exterior features lapped, clear-coated cedar shakes, stone facings, and grecian columns with a contemporary roofline incorporating peaked and shed dormers plus an treetop balcony. The driveway entrance is flanked with stone pillars topped by large gas lamps. A native Mountain Laurel lined path leads down to a waterside facility consisting of a pier with power and water, a boat lift, a fish-cleaning station, an equipment box, and a rare boat house. (These are no longer allowed to be built in Lancaster County.) The lot consists of 1.9 ± acres with a broad shoreline of 325 ± feet.

The sun-washed Great Room features softly polished hardwood floors and vaulted, white raftered ceilings. A gently turning stairwell with asymmetrical windows adds an eye-pleasing detail to the open space, as does a central, stacked stone fireplace with gas logs. Small speakers are mounted unobtrusively to the rafters for audiophiles, and the entire house is wired for sound and internet/media access. French doors and oversized windows open to the gracious back porch which overlooks the creek with downstream views of the tranquil waters. The coastal theme is carried outdoors onto the porch with columns and an insulated, white raftered roof (in case someone wants to convert it to enclosed living space).

The Dining Area features dual built-in China Cupboards, with a sea-blue hand-rubbed finish to match the unique Kitchen cabinets, with their round wooden knobs and furniture leg detail. Granite counters and stainless appliances grace the efficient U-shaped design.

An Owner's Suite on the Main Floor has waterside windows, hardwood floors, built in speakers, and private Bath with a furniture quality double-sink vanity. The versatile floorplan features a walk-through closet that opens to another room, allowing it to be used as an Owner's Sitting Room, Home Office, Family Room or Guest Bedroom.
