Privately set on 1.25 acres with approximately 350 feet of protected waterfront on Church Creek, this exceptional Poplar Point estate offers a rare deep-water setting just moments from the South River. The private pier is designed for serious boating, featuring 8.5’–10’ water depth, water and electric service, four slips, two boat lifts (including a 12,000-lb lift and swinger lift), and capacity to accommodate yachts up to 70 feet. Positioned along a gentle bend leading to the South River, the property enjoys the best of both worlds—direct access to open water with the protection of calm creek waters, ideal for boating, paddleboarding, swimming, and a relaxed waterfront lifestyle. A paver driveway introduces a residence thoughtfully designed for both comfort and longevity. Encompassing approximately 6,625 finished square feet, the home offers generous yet comfortable living spaces designed to capture water views from nearly every vantage point. Outdoor living is central to the experience, featuring expansive IPE hardwood decking, multiple balconies, and a heated lap pool, all oriented toward the tranquil waterfront setting. Inside, radiant heated floors throughout, Brazilian hardwood floors, custom maple doors, and walls of windows frame water views from nearly every room. The great room impresses with a vaulted cedar ceiling, masonry fireplace, wet bar, and French doors opening to the waterfront deck, creating an inviting space for both entertaining and everyday living. Additional gathering spaces include a main-level living room with stone fireplace and bar area, along with a versatile sunroom filled with natural light. The kitchen offers granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, an island with secondary sink, and seamless access to outdoor dining areas. A main-level bedroom and full bath provide flexibility for guests, while the four-car garage supports an active waterfront lifestyle. Upstairs, the owner’s suite serves as a private retreat, capturing panoramic water views from a private IPE balcony. The spa-inspired bath features radiant heated floors, soaking tub, glass-enclosed stone shower, and two custom walk-in closets. In total, five bedrooms and four full baths occupy the upper level, complemented by a vaulted second-level gathering room with fireplace and deck access. Offering extraordinary waterfront frontage, rare deep water, and yacht-ready pier facilities, this residence represents a unique opportunity to experience refined living with luxurious comfort along one of the South River’s most desirable waterways.
