    What's special

    Lake front home! This fully renovated 3-bedroom, 3-bath home was taken down to the subfloors in 2025, so everything you see -- and everything you don't -- is brand new. A stunning coastal home with modern upgrades, as well as flexible space, ready for you to make it your own home or investment property. The backyard is the real showstopper: your own stretch of lake, ready for morning paddles or an evening line in the water. A generous back deck off the kitchen puts those yard and lake views front and center, whether you're grilling out or just unwinding at sunset. And for chilly evenings there is a firepit too. A welcoming front porch adds even more room to sit outside and slow down. Inside, an open, light-filled layout connects the living spaces effortlessly, ideal for hosting or simply settling in. All three bedrooms are generously sized with walk-in closets, and each is fitted with biometric locks for a modern layer of privacy and security. One bedroom stands apart with its own private entrance with double doors -- a natural fit for income potential, guests, or a home office. An unfinished bonus room with its own double doors to the backyard offers room to grow: a family room, fourth bedroom, home gym, or storage for paddlecraft and lawn gear. And an outdoor shower out front, adding to the coastal feel. And the lake life doesn't stop at the property line -- this freshwater, water-access community includes public swimming areas, boat launches, and neighborhood parks, so there's always another way to get out on (or near) the water. The community also boasts The Lakes Golf Club (18 holes) as well as a Disc Golf Course. And just a short drive to numerous beaches and downtown Southport. This property is ready and waiting for you to make it your own home or investment property. All furniture is negotiable.
