Some homes are built to impress. This one was built to last. Tucked beneath a canopy of mature hardwoods in Tarheeland Acres, this all brick, single level home sits quietly along the pond, just minutes from the Intracoastal Waterway and the bridge to Ocean Isle Beach. Step inside and the great room opens up with soaring vaulted ceilings, twin skylights, and a brick fireplace framed by doors to the back porch. With about 2700 square feet, there's room for everyone: three bedrooms, three baths, a flex office for working from home or hosting guests, a formal dining room with a tray ceiling, and a spacious kitchen with an island and plenty of room for a breakfast table. The heart of this home is out back. The oversized screened porch overlooks the pond and wooded yard. It's the kind of place where morning coffee turns into an hour and evenings end with the ceiling fan humming. An oversized two car garage with workbenches and cabinets, plus an extra parking pad, leaves room for the boat, the golf cart, and every project on your list. Offered as is, this home is ready for its next chapter. The brick bones and the setting are already here. All it needs is your vision. Homes with this much space and privacy this close to the waterway don't come along often in Tarheeland Acres. Come see it before someone else writes the next chapter.
