Welcome to this charming and spacious 4 bedroom, 2 bath coastal cottage located in the highly sought-after Sea Acres community in The Village of Duck. As you arrive, you'll be welcomed by a picturesque setting under a canopy of trees on an extra large 1/2 acre homesite (should be enough room for a private pool), providing peaceful privacy and a tranquil escape from the road. This beautiful home, owned by the original owners who have never rented and used it as a 2nd home for two to three months a year, offers a turn-key beach retreat that lives comfortably with its functional open concept. The thoughtfully designed layout includes a dry entry, a porch already framed for screening, a wrap-around sun deck, and potential to extend a shady outdoor living space underneath the large carport. One of the highlights of this home is its incredible proximity to the beach, with just 500 steps separating you from the lifeguarded beach access. Imagine the convenience of having the sand and waves just a stone's throw away! Upon entering the top level, you'll be greeted by a cozy great room with a cathedral ceiling and an abundance of natural light streaming in through the numerous windows. The large kitchen, complete with a pantry, provides ample space for culinary creations. The primary bedroom on this level offers private access to a full bath. Heading to the mid-level, you'll find three more bedrooms, one of which has private access to the shared full bath, ensuring comfort and convenience for family and guests. This primary bedroom also has a private access to covered porch. Outside, the home boasts additional features such as a dry entry with a storage closet, a washer/dryer, an outdoor shower, and newer "Fortified" Roof (2019) for added peace of mind and saves on insurance premium. The low maintenance vinyl siding, installed in 2021, adds further durability and appeal. Notably, this home sits high and dry, eliminating the need for flood insurance. Additionally, it is just steps away from the biking/walking path to Duck Village, where you can explore all the charming shops, restaurants, and attractions at your leisure. Several recent upgrades have been made to the property, including New vinyl siding in 2021, a top-floor shower conversion, a new Fortified roof in 2019, new flooring in 2018, New windows in 2014, a new top deck, HVAC refurbished in 2017, and a new septic system in 2011. Don't miss out on the opportunity to own this charming coastal cottage in the desirable Sea Acres community. Whether you're looking for a year-round residence or a vacation home, this turn-key retreat has it all.
