This 3 bedroom and 2.5 Bath Waterfront home was originally built in 1942 and was remodeled throughout just a few years ago. It is a must-see interior with a downstairs living room and an upstairs family room that offers a stunning view. There is a large front porch with a southern exposure. The screened in patio on the east side of the house adjoins a 2-car carport. An HVAC system services the downstairs living area, while a second HVAC system services the upstairs living area. Additionally, a dehumidifier was installed in 2023 to provide comfort during those humid summer months on the Crystal Coast. A private boat dock grants boating access to the Cape Lookout National Seashore Park and the Beaufort historic Waterfront. There is a detached, recently built, metal garage / workshop 25' X 25' on a concrete slab with electric installed. This 2.6 acre lot has beautiful, mature trees. A new septic system was installed in 2020.
