Watch the sun sink into the Bay River from your own private dock. This rare one-acre waterfront lot offers the kind of peace that's getting harder to find -- already cleared, seawall in place, and a septic system installed so you can break ground without breaking a sweat. Just ten minutes from Oriental, the Sailing Capital of North Carolina, you'll have easy access to the charm of a quaint coastal town while coming home to something truly serene. Whether you're casting a line at dawn or sipping something cold at sunset, this is the waterfront life you've been putting off. Don't put it off any longer.
As the MLS and public records start to fill up, we'll list the details here.
