Property Description
Outdoors, this home is built for life on the water. A private hog slat dock with lift and dual platforms makes boating, fishing, and exploring the ICWW effortless, while the saltwater pool sets the stage for long summer days and sunset evenings. A spacious backyard with fire pit, large Trex deck, and screened porch create multiple inviting spaces to relax, entertain, and soak in the coastal breeze year-round.
Inside, the home continues to impress with a generously sized primary suite featuring beautiful water views, an updated kitchen with solid surface countertops, newer appliances, and a versatile dining or flex space that adapts to your needs. Thoughtful improvements began around 2019 and have continued with care, giving peace of mind and lasting value. Additional features include cement board siding, storm shutters, a permitted newer shed, and an encapsulated crawl space inspected and serviced in February 2026 with warranty in place.
Located in Flood Zone X--where flood insurance is typically not required--and offering the freedom of no HOA, this property combines comfort with low restrictions and smart ownership costs. Situated within the sought-after Croatan School District and ideally located between Cape Carteret and Morehead City, you'll enjoy quick access to beaches, dining, shopping, and coastal recreation.
Whether you're seeking a full-time residence, a second home, or a true waterfront escape, this property delivers the rare combination of location, lifestyle, and value.
