Panoramic water views take center stage, with unobstructed ocean, sound, marsh, and ICW vistas unfolding in every direction. Completed in December 2022 and thoughtfully positioned to capture the island's most beautiful sunrises and sunsets, this home was designed to make the view the focal point. Offered turnkey and fully furnished, it pairs effortless coastal living with proven performance, generating over $120,000 in rental income last year.
Over 2,400 square feet of living space spans three levels, connected by a private four stop elevator for added accessibility and guest convenience. The home offers six bedrooms, including a spacious primary suite with an ensuite bath featuring dual vanities and a tiled walk-in shower. The top-floor living area captures pristine water views and serves as the main gathering space, where an open-concept kitchen with granite countertops and generous seating areas creates an easy hub for entertaining. Durable LVP flooring throughout provides low-maintenance performance ideal for coastal living and investment ownership.
Outdoor living is designed for both enjoyment and functionality. Expansive Trex decks offer lasting durability, while a heated pool on the ground level and a six-person hot tub on the first living level create a true resort-style experience. A fire pit, dedicated putting green, and outdoor shower enhance guest appeal and everyday convenience. Under-house parking along with substantial on-site parking accommodations comfortably support full occupancy. Marsh-front positioning enhances privacy and delivers layered water views, with deeded waterfront access and a private dock for easy entry for kayaking, paddleboarding, and exploring the coastal ecosystem.
A distinctive value component is the inclusion of the lot directly across the street (1104 New River Inlet), providing dedicated oceanfront access capabilities. That parcel carries a recorded easement for access should it ever be sold separately and developed--preserving beach connectivity and protecting long-term utility.
Where early morning shoreline walks give way to golden-hour marsh views, this home delivers more than a beautiful setting--it represents a strategically designed coastal investment with enduring lifestyle appeal and strong income production. Just moments from favorite island restaurants, local shops, and year-round recreation, the location supports both exceptional ownership experience and sustained long-term value.
