Welcome to this recently updated custom-built deep water canal home where modern coastal design meets effortless waterfront living. Light, airy, and thoughtfully constructed under newer building codes, this low-maintenance home offers abundant natural light, vaulted ceilings and elegant Bali window treatments. The great room features a gorgeous electric fireplace with shiplap accent walls beautifully framed by custom shelving. The chef’s kitchen is a showstopper with granite countertops, a large island, stainless-steel appliances, and striking pendant lighting. The adjacent dining area overlooks the canal, making every meal a waterfront experience. Step outside to the expansive covered deck and enjoy peaceful water views, gentle breezes, and unforgettable sunsets. The owner’s suite is a private retreat, complete with its own balcony overlooking the canal, double vanities, a spacious walk-in tile shower, and a large walk-in closet. A generous loft area provides flexible space for a home office or a fourth sleeping area for guests. Storage is abundant throughout the home, including fantastic under-house storage with built-in shelving. Recent 2025 updates add tremendous value and peace of mind, including new upstairs and downstairs HVAC systems, new sod and irrigation updates, a new 13,000 lb boat lift, new furniture and furnishings, a new security system with Ring cameras, keyless locks, WiFi thermostats, and durable Polywood outdoor furniture. Additional highlights include a standing seam metal roof, fiber internet access, outdoor shower, fenced-in backyard, two separate water meters for the home and irrigation, water and power at the dock, hose bibs on all decks, and abundant parking. Enjoy close proximity to two beach accesses, fantastic neighbors (currently with non-rental homes on both sides), and a front-row seat to Ocean Isle Beach’s spectacular July 4th fireworks. This exceptional canal-front home truly offers the best of coastal living!
