Rare opportunities like this are becoming increasingly difficult to find. Perfectly positioned on nearly an acre across two adjoining parcels, this beautifully updated property offers an exceptional blend of modern comfort, flexibility, and long-term potential--all without the restrictions of an HOA.
From the moment you arrive, you'll appreciate the pride of ownership reflected throughout this thoughtfully renovated three-bedroom, two-bath home. The beautifully updated kitchen serves as the heart of the home, complemented by renovated bathrooms, inviting living spaces, and a bright enclosed sunroom--the perfect place to enjoy your morning coffee, entertain guests, or unwind year-round.
Adding to the home's versatility is a spacious bonus room that easily adapts to your lifestyle as a home office, fitness room, media space, guest retreat, or creative studio. Outside, the expansive grounds provide ample room for gardening, outdoor entertaining, recreational vehicles, and enjoying the privacy that comes with nearly an acre of land.
What truly sets this property apart is the second adjoining parcel, which conveys with the sale and is home to a detached workshop--ideal for hobbies, storage, or projects. Beyond its immediate functionality, the additional parcel presents a compelling opportunity for the future. Subject to zoning, permitting, utility availability, subdivision requirements, and all applicable governmental approvals, a future owner may choose to retain the parcel for added privacy, explore the possibility of constructing an additional residence, or potentially separate and sell the lot, creating both flexibility and long-term value.
Beautifully balancing lifestyle and investment potential, this is far more than a move-in-ready home--it's a rare opportunity to own a property with room to grow, adapt, and appreciate over time. Ideally located just minutes from Camp Lejeune, MCAS New River, shopping, dining, schools, medical facilities, and Jacksonville's everyday conveniences, this distinctive offering delivers the perfect combination of privacy, accessibility, and future possibilities.
Properties offering beautifully remodeled interiors, two conveying parcels, a detached workshop, and exceptional future potential are seldom available. Experience everything this remarkable property has to offer by scheduling your private showing today.
