About this home

Imagine living the coastal life! This all brick ranch on Harkers Island is located on a quiet cul de sac with waterviews from the back. No HOA covenants or fees to deal with either. Just minutes from the public boat launch, fishing pier and beach, this property provides easy access to world class fishing, Cape Lookout National Seashore and Lighthouse and the downtown restaurants and shopping in Beaufort and Morehead City. Located in Shaded X flood zone, she sits high and dry. * The crawl space has been encapsulated and conditioned * water softener is included * roof, heat pump and all new ductwork installed in 2019. The back yard is fenced in and contains a large 16'x24' workshop and storage shed. Enter from the covered front porch to the large living room with fireplace, kitchen with plenty of counter space, solid wood cabinets and large pantry. There is a den/office overlooking the backyard with access to the back deck. There are 3 spacious bedrooms, 2 1/2 baths, laundry room with extra deep/large dog wash sink and a 1 car garage with high ceilings and storage shelving. Throughout this home you will notice 6 solar tubes which bring additional daylight into the rooms. Have a boat or RV? The extra wide driveway provides space to park all your toys while still having room for cars. There are views to the water from the back deck and the den. Harkers Island is the ideal place to relax at a slower pace. The ferry system is at the end of the island where you can take a ride to Core Banks and see dolphins and the famous Shackleford ponies on the way. At the entrance to the island is the new high-rise bridge with the pier and park below for fishing or just relaxing by the water. Call for an appointment and make your move to the coast a reality.
