About this home
Imagine waking up to the soft glow of the sun rising over the Chowan River, coffee in hand, as the water shimmers just beyond your window. Welcome to 116 N Shore Drive in Merry Hill —a waterfront haven where every day feels like a vacation.
Perched high on the banks of Black Rock (x-flood zone), this 4-bedroom, 4-bath home blends relaxed luxury with the beauty of life on the water. Just minutes from historic downtown Edenton and the award-winning Ocana golf course, it's perfectly placed for both quiet escapes and local adventures. And with many recent upgrades—including a brand-new roof (2023) and updated HVAC systems (2021-2022)—you can simply move in and enjoy with peace of mind.
As you enter the home, you're immediately greeted by walls of windows that frame endless river views. The main level flows effortlessly from the kitchen to the formal dining and living room, all spilling onto an enclosed porch where floor-to-ceiling windows bring the outdoors in. A versatile family room and full bath on this level can even serve as a first-floor primary suite.
Upstairs, the primary suite and additional bedrooms each open to an enclosed sunporch overlooking the pool and the wide, glistening river. A private in-law suite with kitchenette, bath, and its own entrance sits above the garage—ideal for guests or extended family.
Outdoors, the story continues. A saltwater pool reflects the summer sky, a hot tub invites stargazing in the quiet of night, and a private pier with boat lift extends a promise of adventure—whether it's fishing at dusk or setting out on a sunset cruise.
In Black Rock, life feels both elevated and grounded, steeped in natural beauty yet connected to nearby Edenton and its historic charm. This home embodies that balance—a retreat designed not just to live in, but to savor.
