Nestled along 100 feet of pristine waterfront, this exceptional 3 bedroom, 4.5 home (plus two additional upstairs flex rooms with closets) is the perfect blend of thoughtful craftsmanship with the serenity of coastal living! The monolithic slab construction and Zip-Wall System ensure lasting strength, while the new architectural shingled roof (installed 11/2024) and impact-resistant windows provide peace of mind. Step inside, and you'll be greeted by luxurious 20x20 Spanish stone tile flooring, featuring a compass rose, setting the stage for a home that is both refined and inviting. The custom KraftMaid maple cabinetry offers soft-close dovetail drawers throughout, while the built-in wet bar--featuring a one-of-a-kind sea turtle tile backsplash--creates the ideal space for entertaining. With an elevator-ready shaft, a whole-house water filtration and softener system, and a cedar-lined storage window seat in the spacious upstairs Family Bonus Room, every detail has been carefully curated for comfort and convenience. Freshly painted inside and out (12/2024), this meticulously maintained home also includes a garage workshop wired for 20A service, ample space for a small boat on a trailer, and three Carolina Perception kayaks with rudders--ready for new owners to explore the beauty of the coast. Outside you will find where the expansive covered porch with Cypress decking and sleek cable railing invites you to unwind with beautiful unobstructed ICW views. Venture down to your grandfathered oversized dock, featuring built-in seating, a full roof, a kayak launch, a fish-cleaning station, and drive-on boat docking for a skiff or jet skis; a dream setup for avid boaters and fishermen alike. The Harbour Village Marina and Topsail Inlet are just moments away, ensuring effortless access to the best coastal waters. This is more than a home; it's a legacy of waterfront living, where crabbing with a string, fishing and watching sunsets ensure memories to last a lifetime!
