About this home
Tucked along Adam's Creek, 221 Creek Rd is a one-of-a-kind waterfront retreat designed to maximize natural light and the beauty of the coast. The home's distinctive dodecagon shape, reverse floor plan, vaulted ceilings, and walls of windows capture panoramic water views from nearly every room, creating a bright, open feel that changes with the light throughout the day. The updated kitchen features quartz countertops, stainless steel appliances, a coffee bar, and a walk-in pantry—all perfectly arranged for easy entertaining and everyday living and flows to the dining and living areas. The primary suite is privately set apart in its own wing, complete with a spacious walk-in closet and ensuite bath. The lower level offers a flexible layout, opening to a flex room, ideal for guests or recreation, complete with laundry & storage closets. A jack-and-jill bath connects to a spacious, bright bedroom with sliding glass doors onto the deck and a gorgeous backyard.
