Welcome to The White House at Island Farms on Historic Gwynn's Island. One of the 22 original homes built on the island, this craftsman farmhouse has all of the modern ammenities one could want waiting inside and out without losing any of its old world charm. The front porch is completely enclosed and greets you with just a clean, inviting entry and space to watch the time go by. There are so many upgrades including a brand new Bosch Heat Pump for upstairs, 3 new mini splits downstairs, a brand new kitchen including the gas range, flooring, cabinets, food grade butcher block counters and there is even a matching coffee bar around the corner. The primary ensuite is on the first floor and it is adjacent to the full laundry room. On the second level, you are greeted by two bedrooms, "The Captain's Room" and "The Hemingway Room" accompanied by a full bath as well. Each with its own style but sharing a unique cozy feel. Outside is also magnificent, situated on almost two full acres, this fledgling vineyard and country escape comes complete with almost two year old grape vines consisting of cabernet-savignon and catawba in the back of the property and scuppernoggs and concords line the front of the property. There is an almost brand new shed and wait until you see the patio! Brand new pavers, a stucco bar area complete with a fire trench and lighting. Perfect for entertaining or just enjoying your property. Many of the windows have been replaced as well. This home has several different paths it can take; carry on the vision of a small vineyard and farm market, use as a country escape from the city or it is also just a wonderful place just to live. The owners have conquered all of the challenges of an older home for you including the central heat and air, a completely brand new water system including three filters, reverse osmosis and an iron softener and the entire house is wired with Cat-5. Spring is just around the corner so the banana tree and windmill palms are not far away!
