Peaceful views of Bogue Sound, on a 0.42-acre homesite, and the freedom of no HOA make this beautifully maintained custom home a rare opportunity in Archers Point. As the morning sun rises over Bogue Sound, neighbors greet one another while walking their dogs, children playing outside, and the peaceful atmosphere reminds you why Emerald Isle is such a special place to call home. Built on an elevated foundation for coastal living, this 2,568-square-foot custom home offers three bedrooms, three full baths, and a spacious reverse floor plan designed to capture the beauty of the Sound. The upper deck became my observatory. With a star-finder app and the relatively low background lighting, many evenings were spent identifying constellations, planets, and other celestial wonders. It is also the perfect place to enjoy the sunrise, relax with a cup of coffee, or simply listen to nature. Deer, squirrels, butterflies, and seasonal frogs are all part of the natural beauty that surrounds this property. The home has been meticulously maintained with new exterior paint, newly stained decks, refinished hardwood floors, a whole-house water filtration system, tankless water heater, oversized two-car garage, and durable cement fiber exterior. One of the unique advantages of the property is its outstanding potential for a future swimming pool. After meeting with the City Planner to review the property and the applicable CAMA requirements, I was encouraged to learn that the three immediately adjacent properties had all met those requirements and successfully built their pools. Just minutes from Emerald Isle's beaches are restaurants, shopping, festivals, and the island's popular bike path, this home offers the perfect balance of coastal living and everyday convenience. Within almost walking distance sits the NC Wildlife Public Boat Ramp for those who enjoy fishing or riding the waves. A beautifully refurbished golf cart is included with an acceptable full-price offer, making it even easier to enjoy everything Emerald Isle has to offer.
