Spectacular views overlooking the marsh and ocean views from the upper levels greet you from this beautiful home with a lot that exceeds 18000 sq ft. No HOA. Tucked behind the last houses on Virginia Avenue, it provides a peaceful setting as traffic doesn't pass directly in front of the residence. At the end of the driveway is a large parking / turn around area and includes an unbuildable marsh buffer. Hurricane shutters and a whole house propane generator with auto-start installed in 2020 provides up to 4 days of peace and comfort during outages. Over $60k in landscaping completed in 2021, the fenced backyard offers low maintenance pet friendly turf, a fire pit, practice golf putting area, landscape lighting, and palm trees that create a personal oasis. Under the covered patio is an outdoor shower to rinse off and a hot tub for relaxation. Built using a reverse floor plan, as you go up the stairs you will find the master bedroom with access to a covered deck, two guest rooms, and laundry closet. On the top floor you will find a stylish, brand new kitchen. New appliances, cabinets, and a large kitchen island with sink, accent the amazing quartz counter-tops and offer plenty of room for entertaining. A dumbwaiter provides access in the garage and kitchen for getting groceries and supplies up and down with ease. The kitchen, dining area, and living room provide great east facing views of the marsh and ocean. An additional bedroom with a full bath and convenient hall half-bath round out the top floor interior. Step out on the covered deck, with plenty of room for seating and grilling, and take in the view and ocean breeze. A large top level deck provide breathtaking views which include the ocean, Freeman Park, Snow's Cut bridge, and downtown Carolina Beach that allow viewing the summertime fireworks. Located near the north end of the island, it provides easy access to the beach, Freeman Park, marina, and downtown CB. Perfect primary or vacation home.
