Property Description

Welcome to Cosmo's Creek — a rare and enchanting piece of Covington history.Nestled on five beautifully landscaped acres along the Little Bogue Falaya River, this charming 1890 cottage offers a unique blend of historic character, modern updates, and the peaceful beauty of a private estate—yet it is just minutes from downtown Covington.Originally built as a small cottage, the home was thoughtfully expanded around the original structure and extensively renovated in 2007. The original pecky cypress room remains the heart of the home, showcasing beautiful heart-of-pine floors, a fireplace, and the character that makes this property truly one of a kind.Enter through the light-filled sunroom, where walls of windows provide beautiful views of the grounds. From there, step into the original pecky cypress room and continue into the well-appointed kitchen featuring butcher-block countertops, custom cabinetry with pull-out shelving, a Thermador cooktop and double oven, Fisher & Paykel dishwasher, GE Monogram refrigerator, wine cooler, and a convenient utility nook with Maytag washer and dryer.A spacious formal dining room provides an inviting setting for entertaining. Two guest bedrooms are thoughtfully positioned on either side of a full bath. The private primary suite features its own fireplace and an adjoining office. The luxurious primary bath offers a large walk-in shower, soaking tub, and an expansive closet with custom built-ins.Across the back of the home, a large deck overlooks the beautifully landscaped grounds and provides the perfect place to relax and enjoy the setting.
