Welcome to this spacious 5-bedroom, 3-bath home tucked into a quiet, highly sought-after Southern Shores neighborhood. Set on a beautifully landscaped and wooded 22,000 sq. ft. lot, the property offers wonderful privacy along with a 3 car garage. Step inside to an inviting main level featuring beautiful hardwood floors and a large kitchen equipped with stainless steel appliances, garbage disposal, under-counter lighting, and counter seating for three. The kitchen flows into the dining area with a warm gas fireplace, and a spacious great room with access to both the three-season room and the screened-in porch. Three comfortable bedrooms are conveniently located on this level, along with easy hallway access to the large attic with floored storage and a pull-down ladder for access. Upstairs, you’ll find two additional bedrooms that share a full bath—providing plenty of space for family or guests. The home also features a full-house generator and hurricane shutters for added peace of mind. Multiple indoor and outdoor living areas offer plenty of room for entertaining or relaxing year-round. Located in the desirable Southern Shores community near Duck and Kitty Hawk, you’ll enjoy miles of walking, biking, and running trails.

A dedicated well pump located in the garage provides a convenient way to manually water the landscaping, and the home is plumbed for a Le Bleu water system, though it is not currently installed.
