Welcome home to a splendid waterfront homesite with beautiful and serene waterfrontage not far from Oriental. Located in a desirable area on the banks of Browns Creek, a tranquil tributary of Broad Creek with lots of privacy, mature trees and possibilities for your dream home... The property is richly-appealing with the mature trees providing a shady overstory for most of the property! The homesite area is perfectly situated for an elevated home designed to preside over the gorgeous marsh fringe and the deep, pristine waters of Browns Creek. Recently cleared and levelled with a new septic permit and proposed pier. The location is ideal to take advantage of the protected setting and should be the perfect spot to launch your day of fishing, sailing or kayaking! Also, it is ideally suited to sit, fish and enjoy views up, down and across the creek! The setting is blessed by all the natural elements that make Eastern NC such an ideal destination. The property is over 3 acres in size and would make a gorgeous personal estate to enjoy... If more property is desired, consider purchasing and combining it with an adjoining 2.6 acre parcel (2504 Browns Creek Rd. - Lot 19- $ 145,000) to create a unique two-homesite parcel. A Weyerhaeuser-developed community not far from Oriental!
