Extraordinary WATERFRONT Manor Home located on 7.76+/- scenic acres in the gated and prestigious community of Knight Island. One of the great attractions is the approximately 400 feet of sandy beach on the navigable Sassafras River. The home is well-designed, constructed, and maintained, featuring water views from nearly every room. The 2-story home has 4 bedrooms, including a main floor master suite with sunlight-filled study and a luxuriously appointed master bath. Sitting just off the gourmet kitchen sits a welcoming sun room with custom woodwork and nautical details. The large stone fireplace in the family room and cathedral ceilings add to the beauty of the home s main floor. The fully finished lower level is inclusive of a dual sided stone fireplace, great room with full kitchen, bath, crafting room, utility rooms and walkouts onto the poolside patio. The enormous detached garage is perfect for boat/RV storage, could perhaps accommodate horses or livestock. Spectacular panoramic views of the Sassafras River, mature landscaping, inground pool, private sandy beach, community dock, are just a few of the amenities. The property is predominantly open and gently rolling, set back off of the road with a lovely winding entrance way, leading to the privacy of this spectacular setting. This is truly a must-see property for the most discerning of buyers seeking waterfront living at its finest. An Absolute Gem!
