Situated on a prominent corner lot in the heart of downtown Old Oriental, this extraordinary three-bedroom, 3.5-bath residence is a true masterpiece of coastal architecture and craftsmanship. The property includes an approximately 3,490-square-foot main residence and an additional 770-square-foot apartment above the detached garage, creating a remarkable opportunity for luxurious living, multigenerational accommodations, guest quarters, or income-producing potential in Oriental, North Carolina's Sailing Capital. Designed by renowned coastal architect Allison Ramsey and custom built by master craftsman Stuart Hardy as his personal showcase home, this exceptional property reflects unparalleled attention to detail and an uncompromising commitment to quality, with no expense spared. Thoughtfully designed for comfort, entertaining, and coastal resilience, the home features a standing-seam metal roof, copper gutters, working hurricane shutters, whole-house water purification, hot water on demand, five HVAC systems, and two independent generators serving both the main residence and guest quarters. Rich architectural details abound, including hardwood floors throughout, custom millwork, premium windows, beautifully tiled baths, expansive porches, and exceptional craftsmanship at every turn. The chef's kitchen is equipped with a Viking gas range and oven, a separate Viking warming drawer, Viking hood vent, and commercial-grade KitchenAid appliances. Additional highlights include a large wood-burning masonry fireplace equipped with gas logs and a remote lighting system, a central vacuum system, and full laundry facilities on both the first and second floors. The detached apartment, seamlessly integrated above the expanded garage, mirrors the exceptional quality and finishes of the main home. Ideal for guests, multigenerational living, a private retreat, or an income-producing rental, this beautifully appointed space adds remarkable flexibility and long-term value. Surrounded by meticulously curated landscaping, the property showcases mature trees, indigenous plantings, and a flourishing pollinator garden that enhances the natural beauty of the setting while providing low-maintenance enjoyment. Rare and distinctive gas lanterns grace the property, casting a warm glow and adding an unmistakable touch of sophistication and timeless Southern coastal elegance.
