Large Waterfront Home perfect for families/groups - Amazing to relax or play!

Welcome to "Parr"adise affectionately named after the owners of this beauty. This 5 bedroom, 3.5 bath home sits on a secluded point of land over an acre in size on the Yeopim Creek adjacent to the Albemarle Sound and directly across from Albemarle Plantation. With 180 degrees of waterviews, Parradise has incredible sunrises and sunsets, brackish water that warms early in the year allowing all types of watersports, excellent fishing and crabbing. Relax on the dock, in the warm water or under the covered deck. The home has everything you need for a relaxing time away with friends and family. Bring your boat or jet skis as there is a ramp nearby and they can be tied to our dock. Stairs lead you to a sandy bottom sliver of beach where you can launch our 2 kayaks or 2 paddle boards. Sunfish sailboat and wind surfer available for experienced sailors only who know how to set up and take down appropriately. Crab or fish directly from the dock. Crab pot and fishing poles available, just bring bait! Toys galore, including ping-pong tables, badminton, cornhole boards, basketball hoop. We have the perfect balance allowing you to play hard and relax as much as desired.

Parradise has room for large groups in the 3200+ square feet, including two master bedrooms. There is a downstairs master bedroom with King bed and ensuite bathroom with tiled shower. TV in master. Relax in the screened porch directly off of this master BR. Upstairs you will find an Upstairs Master Bedroom with Queen bed and ensuite bathroom with tiled shower. TV in master. Bedroom 3 has two Queen beds. Bedroom 4 has a Queen Bed. Bedroom 5 has 3 twins. Hallway full sized bathroom with tub/shower combo. There is also an outdoor shower enclosure with hot water. This home has a tankless water heater, so you never run out of hot water.

The fully stocked kitchen seats 8 at the table with center lazy-susan makes access for family style meals easy. Additional seating for 4 at the bar. Large open floor plan makes cooking and entertaining a breeze. Gas stove with downdraft, microwave, toaster oven, oven, coffee maker, blender, gas grill with gas line--lots of options for cooking ease.

Family room has a large sectional sofa and a Lazy Boy recliner. Enjoy your favorite shows on the " TV with Roku/You Tube TV. There is also Chromecast for you to stream from your personal Hulu or Netflix accounts. Gas fireplace with easy on/off switch for wintertime usage. Access the screened porch off the family room to enjoy quiet time.
Sonos music system for you to stream music inside or outside of house.

After a day on the water, come inside and play a game of pool or pinball. We have a card/poker table with a hard top to use for puzzles. We offer an outside hammock and plenty of chairs and a swing to relax in on the covered deck so enjoy the outdoors rain or shine. We also have a wood burning fire pit with a small amount of starter wood. Bring more if desired.

Amazing weekend on the Albemarle Sound!
We had a wonderful family weekend at the Parr's waterfront home! We kayaked, made s'mores, played ping-pong and basketball and ladders in the driveway, and all around had an amazing time. The house was beautiful and spacious, a perfect setting for time together. Hope to be back again!

A group of friends stayed at this lovely, spacious home, as our base for daily kayaking adventures. Every one of us raved about the beautiful location! Morning coffee, in the rocking chairs on the deck, watching the sunrise was unforgettable. Highly recommend.

Amazing property with everything you could ask for.
We had a incredible time. Between the location, the view, the property and everything Tracy and her family had available at the house there was absolutely nothing more you could ask for in a rental. We enjoyed every second of being there.

Great Stay - Exactly as Advertised
The property is exactly as advertised. We thoroughly enjoyed a relaxing time whether we were enjoying the outdoor waterfront views, gathering our family around the spacious dining room table, or shooting the breeze around the pool table. The owner was couteous and responsive. I highly recommend this property.

Amazing Stay 10/10!!
My family and I had the most remarkable stay in this beautiful home. Other reviewers are right- the photos simply don’t do it justice! The kitchen is well appointed with everything you need to cook meals at home, and the dining area is large enough to accommodate a big family. We seated 8 very comfortably around the dining room table and popped the two kids at the breakfast bar (which can easily seat 4). The bedrooms are spacious and the beds comfortable, and plenty of bathrooms to give everyone the space and privacy they need. There’s a gaming table, a comfortable living room, a pool table, and every outdoor game you can think of. It’s the perfect place to detach and unwind and spend quality time with family and friends. There is also a lot of nature to take in- the water, sunrise & sunset, turtles, bunnies, deer, birds, etc. So much relaxation and pure enjoyment. The host Tracey is amazing, super responsive, and a gem for sharing this beautiful home with us. The home is also located within reasonable driving distance to the beaches (OBX or Virginia Beach) but honestly given everything else to do right at the house, there’s not much need to travel too far! Pro tip: the dock on the property is a beautiful place for a marriage proposal! My daughter’s BF proposed to her on our trip, and I’ve since learned that this was not the first proposal in this spot! If you are looking for a romantic setting to propose combined with family and friends, look no further!

This property is amazing! Anything that you could imagine needing at the River is there for you. The house is immaculate and you are close to many great food options in Elizabeth city and downtown Edenton. You will not regret staying here! Bring your suntan lotion and enjoy!

A breath of fresh air
We had the best time. The house and property were so beautiful and relaxing. I spent as much time as I could just sitting at on the porch enjoying the water view. My boys were glued to the ping pong table. There was a space and something to do for everyone. Will definitely be booking again in the future!

Great house, outstanding location. Everything you need for a relaxing stay. We played basketball, had a bonfire, went kayaking, paddleboarding and fishing. We played pool, watched a hockey game, sat on the deck and chilled. Beautiful views, comfortable beds, private location for a waterfront home.

Exceeded all expectations
From the property listing, I thought the house looked great. I thought the location looked wonderful. I assumed the views and water surroundings would be beautiful. All exceeded my expectations. Everything is better than it looks. The house has everything you need but the owners have left you enough space for you to bring everything you want. None of this would’ve been possible without Tracy. Great owner. A truly super host. Without reservations, I recommend this rental.

Golf buddies weekend
8 golfing friends stayed for a long weekend and had a great time. Very comfortable for a group to relax and enjoy their time off the course. Having the ability to use a boat to ferry us across the waterway to the golf course was unique and very special. Would love to stay again.

We absolutely loved this place. The house is beautiful and spacious. It has such an awesome view right on the water. It has all of the amenities you need to cook, fish, etc. The property manager was great and so quick to respond. We will definitely be bringing our church staff back and maybe some family outings as well. I would give it 6 stars if I could.

Winter getaway
The house is amazing and the views from every window are wonderful. Tons of room for our small group to spread out. We came for a post-Christmas getaway, and although it was too cold to enjoy the water, we loved the fireplace. An unexpected treat was the pool table in a beautiful room with a water view. We played pool every night. Be aware that the house is secluded, but if you want peace and quiet, it's perfect. We went into Edenton for dinner one night and cooked the rest of the time. Hope to come back in warmer weather.
