Haleakala` Welcome to the house of the rising sun. This exquisite waterfront dream home awaits your lifetime of enjoyment. Perched on a unique peninsula, this 5100 sq. ft. home commands expansive views of the widest portion of the Magothy River at its entrance to Spriggs Pond. The large sandy beach out front lends itself to bonfires, clam bakes, corn hole tournaments and just chilling out. Swimming and paddle boarding are perfect here with a gradual slope and hard sandy bottom. The jetty protecting the entrance channel is great for fishing and has been known to sport a glorious holiday tree. The deep bulk headed entrance channel is the favored place for chicken necking or dunking a perch bobber. The 570 feet of water frontage wraps to the west side of the property where you will appreciate a sheltered deep water harbor. Multi slip pier is geared for large yachts and for welcoming a multitude of guests arriving by boat. Two boat lifts and a floating platform will accommodate all of your nautical toys. The property is enhanced by twin majestic shade trees significant enough to be mentioned in an 1890 deed. They frame the flat grassy area behind them. Here lies the perfect place to pitch your party tent for everything from crab feasts to extravagant catered events. Covered porches & breezeways with beadboard ceilings and IPE decking provide a welcome retreat from the afternoon sun or a perfect place to watch the ospreys fish. Stepping inside you will find you are only separated from the water by glass and climate. The climate inside is efficiently controlled by a geothermal HVAC system. Closed cell foam insulation, 2X6 framing and high efficiency casement windows minimize energy loss. A true chef~s kitchen boasts a Wolf gas range with griddle and convection oven with infra-red broiler. Blackening your catch of the day inside is made possible with the high velocity Wolf hood and warming shelf. State of the art Gaggenau steam oven and matching rotisserie oven will elevate your culinary presentations to a whole new level. The flooring throughout the main level and upper gallery is character grade quartersawn white oak in random width planks. The billiards room may become your favorite place to hang with its quartz wet bar, beverage center and fireplace. The elevator or elegant curved staircase will lead you to the luxurious bedroom level. A 900 square foot master retreat leaves nothing to be desired. The spacious bath has heated floors and a Baine Ultra Thermo Masseuse air jet tub with heated back rests and mood lighting. A fully equipped efficiency guest suite over the 3+car garage welcomes your guests or tenants. With its own separate entrance and 2nd story deck it offers complete privacy. Decompress every day in your waterfront retreat. Through the change of each season you will truly enjoy the land of pleasant living. Reproducing a home this close and intimate to the water would not likely be possible today. Don~t miss this opportunity to make your favorite new color~SUNRISE.
