Dragonbrest, seen from the water
This historic house, built in 1880, and restored in early 2000, is a one of a kind, a creation of an artist/architect at its best with some distinct Chinese details, which give the house a highly sophisticated flavor. Ideal for buyers who are looking for a historic, but eclectic house and good waterdepth 4-6' MLW (sailboat depth).

WONDERFULLY UNUSUAL AND ECLECTIC 1880 BAY FARMHOUSE


DRAGONBREST HAS BEEN BEAUTIFULLY AND LOVINGLY RESTORED BY ARCHITECT/OWNER MAKING FULL USE OF 3 SIDE WATER VIEWS. ONLY THE HIGHEST MATERIALS WERE USED AS SOLID TEAK FLOORS, TEAK CABINETS, MAHOGANY DECKS, MARBLE COUNTER TOPS AND GLASS STRUCTURES TO ENCASE THE GREAT WRAP-AROUND PORCHES.

THIS HOUSE TRULY REFLECTS AN ARTIST AT WORK WITH GREAT EYE FOR DETAIL AND SOPHISTICATION, CREATING WINDOWS AT STRATEGIC PLACES TO PICTURE THE WATER AND NATURE SURROUNDING THE HOUSE, LOVELY RETREATS IN THE GARDEN AS TERRACES, POOL AND DECKS OVERLOOKING THE BUILDINGS OF HISTORIC LISBURN ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE WATER. A UNIQUE SETTING FOR ELEGANT SOUTHERN LIVING.
