This meticulously designed, positioned, and constructed home was built to capture the optimal coastal living experience for either full time living or a weekend get away.

This home features sweeping views of Lee Island, the ICCW, New Topsail Inlet and on to the ocean! Ocean views. .. .. .. .that's correct. Prepare to be amazed. With the reversed and open floor plan nestled in the foliage and nearly an acre of space with mature Live Oaks, this house is positioned for an excellent blend of privacy as well as breath-taking views from both inside and outside on the expansive, top floor wrap around covered porch. Those porches also serve as quintessential living and entertainment space. Also located on this top floor are a spacious laundry room, guest half bath, and a home office with two built-in desks. Plus, the elevator makes access and living very easy. The 2nd floor is composed of a second living/Television/game area with a wet bar, microwave and refrigerator. Also a half bath, & 3 bedrooms, each equipped with its own FULL Bath, and each with direct access to the covered porch rounds out a house with versatile living opportunities. The two porches, one on each level, together make up 1500 square feet of prime outdoor living space!
