Just minutes from the bridge to Emerald Isle and tucked into one of Cape Carteret's most peaceful waterfront neighborhoods, this new custom home offers elevated first-floor living, timeless finishes, and thoughtful design throughout. The heart of the home is a spacious open-concept living area with 10-foot ceilings, a dramatic linear fireplace, and an over 9-foot kitchen island. A chef-inspired layout includes a butler's pantry, full laundry room, and half bath. The kitchen features upper cabinet, under-cabinet, and toe-kick lighting, with more ambient lighting in the pantry. The large foyer flows to covered front and back porches, perfect for catching ocean air and evening light. Also on the main floor, the primary suite is a true retreat with a walk-in tile shower, freestanding tub, and a custom closet with a cabinet island, recessed drawers, and built-ins. At the front of the home, a quiet office looks out toward the porch and yard, ideal for work or reading. Upstairs, three bedrooms each have private baths. One is a spacious guest suite with a sitting area, walk-in shower, double vanity, and oversized closet. The other two include double vanities and tiled tub surrounds to the ceiling. A second living area and large unfinished bonus room over the garage offer added flexibility. Out back, a 14 by 20 foot covered porch, outdoor shower, and two-car garage round out the coastal lifestyle. The lot can accommodate a 40 by 15 foot pool. The home is pre-wired for a generator, with the automatic transfer switch already installed. Construction is underway and estimated to be complete by the end of October. This is a rare opportunity to own a custom-built home designed for everyday comfort and coastal living.
