Property Description
Gracefully positioned along the quiet shores of the Albemarle Sound, Mulberry Hill Plantation is offered as a rare two-residence waterfront estate—an extraordinary package comprised of two distinct historic homes set on just under seven acres of prime Albemarle Sound frontage. Together, Mulberry Hill’s original plantation house and Somerville, a restored 1791 residence, create a singular opportunity to own and steward a significant piece of North Carolina’s coastal heritage. Constructed circa 1810 for the Blount family, the main residence at Mulberry Hill reflects the refined sensibilities of the early American republic. Its stately brick façade, laid in classic Flemish bond, presents a balanced three-bay composition with a traditional side-hall plan—an architectural form associated with the great coastal homes of its era. Inside, graceful proportions, finely detailed woodwork, and enduring craftsmanship speak to a time when architecture was both art and legacy. Tall windows frame sweeping views of the Albemarle Sound, where shifting light dances across the water. Each principal room and bedroom is anchored by its own fireplace, creating a sense of warmth and architectural rhythm throughout. Thoughtful updates—including a new roof, HVAC systems, and beautifully renovated kitchen and baths—ensure modern comfort while preserving the home’s historic integrity. Complementing the main residence, Somerville—relocated to the property from neighboring Perquimans County in 2004—serves as a fully independent second home, offering both privacy and versatility. This charming gambrel-roof residence retains remarkable original details, including raised-panel wainscoting and beautifully preserved wood floors, while benefiting from a comprehensive renovation following its move. The home features formal living and dining rooms, an inviting great room centered around a fireplace, and three upstairs bedrooms—making it ideal as a guest residence, income-producing property, or private retreat. Approached through tranquil countryside, flanked by an 18-hole golf course and framed by mature trees, the estate conveys an immediate sense of arrival. The setting is timeless—open land, expansive skies, and the gentle rhythms of coastal North Carolina create a rare feeling of privacy and permanence. With two residences included, the property is uniquely suited for a variety of uses—from a private family compound or multi-generational retreat to a boutique event venue, bed and breakfast, or waterfront estate with dedicated guest accommodations. Located just minutes from the historic waterfront town of Edenton—renowned for its colonial architecture and vibrant cultural life—Mulberry Hill Plantation offers the rare combination of historic significance, dual-residence flexibility, and breathtaking waterfront serenity. Mulberry Hill Plantation is more than a home—it is a legacy property, where nearly two centuries of history, craftsmanship, and Southern character converge along the timeless shores of the Albemarle Sound.
