Step back into a simpler time, and enjoy the privacy and a marvelous setting overlooking a salt marsh and Jarrett Bay in an historic home. Built circa 1880, this exceptional house was once the residence of the caretaker for the historic Core Banks Club. This unique property, located off Community Road in Davis, NC, offers rare water views of Jarrett Bay, 3.64 acres of land, and solitude. Included are two adjoining lots of .63 acre, with a well and grandfathered septic system. This traditional American ''I'' house features 3 bedrooms, 1 1/2 baths, an outside shower, approximately 1205 sq. ft. of living space, and 64 linear ft. of porches, as well as a detached garage/shop. The house has original bead-board walls and ceilings, exceptional trim, original 3-over-1 windows and doors, and Southern yellow pine floors. The 3 porches are perfect for coffee on warm spring mornings and enjoyment of the bay breezes and magnificent sunsets on quiet summer evenings. The marsh in front of the property is protected by a conservation easement. The elevated garage/workshop (24x28) with 2nd-floor storage was built in 2016. The current owners have loved and enjoyed this property for years and have planted many trees, creating a bird-watchers paradise. There are live oaks, cedars, bald cypress, sweet bays, bayberry, figs, magnolia, a stunning pindo palm, oleander, and persimmon trees, as well as flowerbeds and a raised-bed organic vegetable garden. Davis, NC is a small, walkable, community nestled between the Core Sound and Jarrett Bay, and was named Number 1 in ''Great Rural Towns in North Carolina to Retire or Buy Real Estate'' in 2022 (Youtube). This property is located 0.7 miles from the Davis Ferry, which takes you to Cape Lookout National Seashore. The NC Wildlife public boat ramp is only 2.2 miles up the road. The State Ferry to Ocracoke is 21 miles from the house. Become a part of the Core Sound heritage and schedule a showing today
