Property Description

194 Brakewood Road is back on the market. It went fast the first time, so move fast because this home is one to move on. This is a beautifully crafted custom home in the sought-after Brakewood community on the north end of Roanoke Island, offering the perfect blend of coastal charm & modern comfort. Built in 2016 by renowned local builder Victor Pugh, this 3-bedroom, 2.5-bath home showcases exceptional attention to detail throughout. From the moment you arrive, the inviting covered front porch with exposed rafters sets the tone for the character found inside. The open-concept main living area features 10-foot ceilings, wide plank Vermont pine floors, custom millwork, and a cozy Jøtul gas stove. The kitchen is both functional and striking, featuring soapstone countertops, a farmhouse sink, custom cabinetry, and a vented hood designed for both daily living and entertaining. The main-level primary suite is a true retreat, complete with custom storage and a spa-like bath featuring heated tile floors, a clawfoot tub, and a tiled shower. Upstairs, two additional bedrooms offer built-in beds in one, abundant storage, and unique architectural touches, along with a full bath and a flexible loft space ideal for an office or reading nook. Outdoor living is where this home truly shines, featuring a spacious screened porch that overlooks a private backyard and an in-ground saltwater pool equipped with both heating and cooling systems to extend the swimming season. The fenced yard, outdoor shower, and generous entertaining space create the ultimate coastal lifestyle. Another standout feature is the detached custom workshop, inspired by Marshes Light and complete with a mini-split system and half bath—perfect for a studio, workspace, or additional entertaining area. Modern essentials include a Navien tankless water heater and a Generac whole-house generator. Set on 0.46 acres, this property also offers a rare opportunity for expansion, with two adjacent 0.34-acre wooded lots available for purchase (see MLS 131672 & 131673) to create a private multi-generational compound or enhanced seclusion. This is a unique chance to own a move-in-ready, thoughtfully designed home in one of Manteo’s most desirable neighborhoods with the added ability to invest in a legacy property.
