About this home

Welcome home to a large, gorgeous DEEP-WATER waterfront homesite, privately situated in Pamlico Count's most desirable waterfront area.... Located on the banks of Browns Creek, a tranquil tributary of Broad Creek, replete with over 2.5 acres of possibilities for your dream home... The property has been recently cleared to make ready for your plans and the homesite area is perfectly situated for an elevated home designed to preside over the gorgeous location and the deep, pristine waters of Browns Creek.! Your future pier will certainly take advantage of the protected setting and provide the ideal spot to launch your day of fishing, sailing or kayaking! Also, it would be an ideal spot to sit, fish and enjoy views up, down and across the creek! The setting is blessed by all the natural elements that make Eastern NC such an ideal destination. The property is over 2.5 acres in size and would make a gorgeous personal escape to enjoy... If more property is desired, consider purchasing and combining it with an adjoining 2.9-acre parcel (2538 Browns Creek Rd. - Lot 18) to create a unique estate-sized homesite parcel! Recently cleared and levelled with a new septic permit... A Weyerhaeuser-developed community not far from Oriental!
