401 Summerhouse Drive, Holly Ridge, NC 28445

A waterfront home and kitchen lover's dream on Spicer Lake with open beam ceilings, a chef-caliber island kitchen, a sun-drenched fully finished lakefront room, and a first-floor room that exists nowhere else in Summerhouse on Everett Bay: a dedicated full bar with wine display and a built-in wine storage closet that would not look out of place in a private low-country speakeasy. (Owner's maintained supplies to return it to an office/formal dining or guest space if buyer desires). This is the home for someone who lives fully and knows exactly what they want. Built in 2019 and thoughtfully upgraded throughout, this 3-bedroom, 3-bath waterfront home delivers 2,439 square feet of intentional coastal living on one of the most coveted lots in Summerhouse on Everett Bay. The first-floor primary suite faces Spicer Lake directly, with expansive windows that frame the water from the moment you open your eyes in the morning. Trey ceilings, gas logs, a custom walk-in closet, and 9-foot-plus ceilings throughout create volume and warmth that photographs well and lives even better. A short golf cart ride from the front door puts you at the two-story clubhouse, the lazy river pool, the 24-hour fitness center, and everything the community delivers without ever leaving the neighborhood. The kitchen is the undisputed heart of this home. A sit-down island with pendant lighting, stainless steel appliances, granite countertops, and recessed lighting make this the space guests gravitate toward regardless of what else is happening in the house. It is not a kitchen designed to impress. It is a kitchen designed to be used by someone who actually cooks. The lakefront room is where this home separates itself from everything else on the street. Fully finished with HVAC, positioned directly on Spicer Lake, a wall of windows faces the water. Morning coffee. Evening gatherings. Every hour of light does something different to the lake. The kind of room guests find first and leave last. Then there is the bar room. Full bar with wine display. Dedicated wine storage closet. Private tasting room, cocktail hour destination. It redefines what entertaining looks like at this address. Upstairs, a finished en suite with walk in closet that passes through to additional attic storage over the garage adds a fourth flex space for a media room, home office, or guest overflow. Now step outside. Summerhouse on Everett Bay is a resort community that earns that description. Lazy river pool. Two-story clubhouse with full kitchen, library, billiards, and fireplaces. 24-hour fitness center with locker rooms. Tennis and pickleball. Boat launch with day docks and pier, dedicated boat storage, kayak launch, and 18 miles of walking trails connecting six scenic lakes and direct Intracoastal Waterway access. Nature park, fire pit, pavilion, community garden, playground, basketball. Two gated entries. Professional HOA maintenance. Master insurance, cable, water, sewer, and street lighting included. Voted Top 100 Places to Live by Ideal Living Magazine. Between Wilmington and Jacksonville. Camp Lejeune, MCAS New River, Stone Bay, U.S. Coast Guard Special Missions Training Center at Courthouse Bay and MARSOC within reach. Topsail Island beaches a short boat ride away. And yet Spicer Lake out the lakefront room windows has a way of making all of that feel unhurried. A kitchen for someone who cooks. A lakefront room for someone who watches the water. A bar room for someone who entertains with intention. The window to make this address yours is open.
