At the tip of a small island on Phillippi Creek, this extensively renovated midcentury residence offers approximately half an acre, over 450 feet of water frontage, and a personal connection to Southgate's beginnings. Built in 1956, the home is, according to local history, the residence that Southgate co-developer Rolland King built for himself and his family. The single-story home offers 2,701 square feet with four bedrooms plus an office, three baths, and an attached two-car garage. A long shell driveway beneath a sprawling live oak leads to a sheltered entrance framed by broad roof overhangs and original stonework. Inside, original black and white terrazzo floors run through the sunken living room, anchored by a fireplace set within a substantial river-rock wall. The updated kitchen opens to the dining and living areas. Impact-rated sliding glass doors open to the terrace and kidney-shaped pool, while the creek traces the curved shoreline and wraps around the island's tip. The primary bedroom offers direct patio access, and three additional bedrooms provide room for family or guests, with an extra bonus room off the primary suite, well suited for a home office. Taken back to the block and studs, the home pairs its preserved original features with new HVAC with full ductwork, blown-in insulation, new drywall, updated showers and vanities, and fresh interior and exterior paint.
