Record Sales at Marshes Light

May 29, 2009


It’s been a busy month for us at Marshes Light! We welcomed two new marina villa owners and sold four homesites. We look forward to watching new construction of a permanent residence within the next few months.

My friend and talented co-worker, Ann, has created a story-board featuring the Carolina, a craftsman style bungalow with 4 bedrooms and three baths. This home was designed to the Manteo Way of Building, which preserves and promotes the historical details of the architecture found in Old Town. Home packages anticipated to start at $450,000.

Stroll along the boardwalk and stop by our model home at 326 Fernando Street in Manteo and check it out. We’re open from 10-5 Monday through Saturday and 12-5 on Sunday.

Marshes Light Discovered by Durham Couple

May 7, 2009

A beautiful weekend at Marshes Light was enjoyed recently by some folks staying in one of our three bedroom marina villas (pictured right).
Beautiful weather presented a great opportunity for a kayak trip and a trip to the nearby beaches of the Outer Banks.

Bird watching and enjoying all the sights of Manteo, including the Elizabeth II, Festival Park and Marshes Light, from the water were great fun!

Meet our Newest Resident at Marshes Light

May 2, 2009

This is the second year we’ve had a new resident living in the grapevine above the front door of the Marshes Light Model Home on Fernando Street.

Does anyone know what type of bird she is? She wasn’t frightened when I opened the door to take her picture and she didn’t fly away.

We are looking forward to more new residents at Marshes Light as four recent homesite sales will result with at least one new home under construction estimated to begin within 60 days!

Here’s another photo of our new feather’d friend.
