Enjoy the coastal lifestyle without sacrificing space, storage, privacy, or peace of mind. Located within a sought-after golf course community with deeded Intracoastal Waterway access, this spacious brick home offers the rare opportunity to keep your boat nearby and avoid the long waits and hassle of the public boat ramp. The kind of coastal lifestyle that is becoming increasingly difficult to find at this price point. While full of charm and established character, the major system upgrades buyers worry about have already been completed, including a new HVAC system (2024), brand new well (2025), new septic system and lines (2025), roof replacement (2018), encapsulated crawl space with dehumidifier, reverse osmosis water filtration system, and generator. Nestled on over a half acre this home provides exceptional flexibility for everyday living and entertaining. Upstairs, a large bonus room with wet bar and full bathroom creates the perfect guest retreat, recreation room, office, or multi-generational living space. The updated kitchen features granite countertops and opens to an oversized pantry and mudroom area complete with washer, dryer, and additional refrigerator. The primary suite includes two separate closets, while updated bathrooms and fresh interior paint help blend timeless construction with modern comfort. One of the home's standout spaces is the beautiful sunroom overlooking the expansive backyard and wooded backdrop, offering a peaceful and private setting rarely found in neighborhood living. A dedicated mini-split system allows year-round enjoyment of the space. Storage and workspace options are abundant with two attached garage bays plus a detached powered garage ideal for a workshop, golf cart storage, boating equipment, hobbies, or additional vehicles. Located within the sought after Topsail school district and close to golf, boating, dining, and coastal amenities, this property offers an increasingly rare combination of water-access lifestyle, practical functionality, and major system updates already in place. $3500 lender credit with qualifying application and preferred lender.
