7297 NC Hwy 99 S, Belhaven

Looking for a place in Eastern North Carolina with plenty of elbow room and a charming custom home? Look no further than this 23 acre property in Beaufort County with a 2220 square foot fully remodeled custom home. This property is located on the canal (not navigable) that is the headquarters of North Creek with over 760 feet of frontage on highway 99, basically halfway between the quaint coastal North Carolina towns of Belhaven (7.3 miles) and Bath (9 miles). Both are steeped in history and provide a down home Coastal Carolina feel as well as local eateries and provisions. If you need something from one of the big box stores or are looking for a downtown waterfront dining experience, the river town of Washington, North Carolina is only 23 miles to the west. There are a number of food and shopping options as well as a hospital and an airport in Washington. I was blown away by the detail put in the renovation and expansion of this home. The house was originally built in 1955, but in 2018 it was taken down to the original studs and fully renovated. An additional 1000 square feet was added to the original house as well. You really have to see it to appreciate all the custom detail that has been put into this home. Here are some of the highlights... 3 bedrooms and 3 full baths. The expansive master has a 42 inch wall mounted television, 2 custom closets, including an incredible walk-in. Large master bath has a double vanity with Corian counter top and custom cabinets, tile floors and a roomy tile and glass walk-in shower. Beautiful dark hardwood flooring throughout the home, solid wood doors throughout, including 2 barn doors. If you appreciate well designed, well build custom kitchens then you will certainly love this one. Granite countertops, ample storage space, high-end appliances, large sink, trash compactor and more. The open living and dining area with gas fireplace and a wall mounted 55 inch television can be as formal or casual as you would like. You may actually find yourself spending a good bit of time in the over 300 square foot sun room addition. With tile floor, large windows and a 55 inch television, this will certainly be a popular space for the family or friends. Other highlights of the home include outdoor speakers, security cameras, security system, custom louvered blinds, whole house vacuum, tankless water heater, water softener, HVAC with overhead ducts, covered Trex front porch, gutters and a privacy fenced backyard. And to keep you comfortable no matter the season or the storm, a 22kw propane whole house generator with a 500 gallon in ground tank. For the outdoors family there is plenty of space outside the home. There's an equipment shed and enclosed barn/workshop for gardening tools or fishing tackle. The manicured yard is home to large productive pecan trees. Right off the back of the yard is a 5 acre duck impoundment for waterfowl hunting or viewing. If you are not a waterfowl hunter it can easily be converted back into a gentleman farm or a food plot for deer hunting. The 2 wooded portions of the property are separated by a beautiful hardwood bottomland, which has waterfowl possibilities as well. The front block is solid pines and lends to the investment potential of this property with a future timber harvest producing income or the possibility of selling wooded lots along the road. The back block is a mix of pines and hardwoods and is perfect for kids wanting to learn about the natural world or the hunter looking to fill the freezer with fresh venison every year. If you're looking for a fish camp, I can't imagine a better location. In 10 minutes, you can be launching the boat in the Pungo River at Wrights Creek or in Bath Creek, North Creek, Pungo Creek or Pantego Creek. Making this place arguably one of the best fish camp locations in the mid-atlantic region. Trophy redfish, tarpon and now world record speckled trout in multiple directions.
