Located on
the picturesque waters of the Albemarle Sound in northeastern NC, Edenton is
often referred to as “the prettiest little town in the South.” Smithsonian.com lists Edenton as one of the
20 best small towns to visit and Coastal Living Magazine has featured Edenton
as their Dream Town As the first
capital of colonial North Carolina, Edenton has a rich historical past with
well preserved architecture and many notable historic sites. Our town embodies
small town Southern charm at its best, with friendly people, charming homes,
and incredible scenery that combine to capture your soul. The Atlantic Ocean
and Outer Banks of North Carolina are approximately an hour away, and 3
airports are easily accessible (Norfolk, VA – 1.5 hrs, Greenville, NC - 1.25
hrs, and Raleigh, NC – 2.25 hrs.) Edenton offers a municipal airport with a
6,000’ runway.
the design of this spectacular home takes its cues from its
surroundings. designed by architect david haase and completed in 2021, this
edenton bay plantation residence sits on a .72 acre parcel with a plan that
keeps the outdoors and waterfront setting as the focal point from morning
through sunset.
rather than a conventional layout, the home is arranged as a
collection of connected spaces beneath broad rooflines and covered walkways.
inside, soaring ceilings and high clerestory windows draw daylight deep into
the interiors, while glass doors frame the landscape beyond. the kitchen,
dining and gathering areas share an easy openness, with the screened porch
functioning as a true outdoor room—large enough for meals, conversation and
long afternoons overlooking the water.
the waterfront primary suite enjoys the prime location with
sweeping open water views. across the covered connection, a remarkably
versatile guest wing operates almost as a home of its own, with two bedrooms, a
full bath, kitchen and laundry. visiting family and friends can settle in
comfortably without sacrificing anyone’s privacy.
outside, the property shifts effortlessly into vacation
mode. a heated saltwater pool and waterfall sit just beyond the porches, while
the firepit offers another gathering spot as the sun drop s over the water. the
western exposure makes evening one of the property’s defining experiences, with
wide-open sunset views providing a constantly changing backdrop .
practical features are equally well considered, including a
two-car garage, whole-house generator, and metal roof. the gated edenton bay
plantation community also provides access to a neighborhood boat dock.
111 heritage point drive is anything but ordinary—a modern
waterfront home shaped around light, water, privacy and the simple pleasure of
being outside.
