Welcome to 12661 Mallard Lane – A One-of-a-Kind Home in Covington Cove. Discover unparalleled charm and elegance in this stunning 3,104 sq ft home. From the moment you turn onto Mallard Lane, this property makes a lasting impression with its show-stopping curb appeal—featuring a circular driveway adorned with a pineapple water fountain, mature trees lining the entrance, a welcoming front porch, and elegant outdoor lighting that highlights every detail. Step inside through double glass doors to a breathtaking foyer showcasing dual grand staircases with classic wainscoting and a sparkling crystal chandelier, complete with bell-shaped crystals that ring. A motorized lift makes maintaining this centerpiece both easy and safe. Beyond the entrance, the family room opens up with a soaring vaulted ceiling, a see-through brick fireplace, and dramatic two-story arched windows that flood the space with natural light and offer spectacular sunset views. Beautiful hardwood flooring flows seamlessly into the formal dining room and into a thoughtfully designed kitchen that’s both stunning and highly functional. The custom kitchen features hand-built birch cabinetry, striking blue opal granite countertops, a spacious center island, and ample soft-close cabinetry for all your storage needs. Stainless steel appliances—including a new refrigerator, microwave, and wall oven—round out this impressive space. Enjoy casual dining in the cozy breakfast nook, where panoramic views of the lush backyard and Monie Creek make every meal feel special. Just off the kitchen, the utility room offers practical storage solutions, including tall cabinetry perfect for cleaning supplies and tools as well as access to the attached two car garage. Every inch of this home was designed with convenience and comfort in mind. The main level also includes a private in-law suite—complete with its own attached garage, living room, kitchenette, bedroom, and full bathroom—ideal for extended family or guests. An additional bedroom, currently used as an office, and a half bath are also located on the first floor. Upstairs, enjoy sweeping views from the interior balcony that overlooks the family room and arched windows. On either end of the second floor, you'll find two spacious primary suites, each with its own walk-in closet and full ensuite bath. One of the suites features a serene sitting area with incredible views and a spa-like 4-piece bath with a whirlpool tub (heated by a Rinnai tankless water heater), and dual vanities. Storage is abundant, with three separate attic spaces—including one with a walk-up staircase to a fully floored third level, ready for finishing or organized storage. Finish your tour by relaxing on the screened-in side porch or back deck—perfect for morning coffee or summer crab feasts with loved ones. Boaters will especially appreciate the private, gated neighborhood boat ramp with direct access to Monie Creek for crabbing, fishing, and more.

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
