Imagine starting your mornings just minutes from the ocean breeze of Surf City, in a neighborhood known for its charm and community spirit. This beautifully maintained home in Poplar Branch offers more than just a place to live, it's a lifestyle.
From the moment you step inside, the welcoming foyer opens into a bright, open-concept living space designed for both everyday comfort and memorable gatherings. The kitchen is the heart of the home, complete with gleaming granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, and a walk-in pantry that keeps everything right at your fingertips.
Upstairs, retreat to your private primary suite—a true sanctuary with a garden tub for relaxation, a walk-in shower for convenience, and a generous walk-in closet for all your essentials. The bonus room is ready to adapt to your life, whether it becomes a nursery, home office, or extra bedroom. Two additional bedrooms and a dedicated laundry room complete the upstairs, offering both function and flexibility.
Step outside and you'll discover a backyard made for living. The large, fully fenced yard is perfect for quiet evenings under the stars, lively weekend barbecues, or carefree afternoons with kids and pets playing freely.
And when the beach calls, you're ready. As a Poplar Branch resident, your HOA includes two reserved Surf City Beach parking passes, making spontaneous trips to Topsail Island as easy as grabbing your towel and sunscreen.
This home strikes the perfect balance between coastal escape and everyday convenience, with close proximity to Stone Bay and nearby military bases.
