Property Description

Deep water Shallotte River frontage with private dock, boat lift, and quick Intracoastal access – set on a rare .73-acre homesite bordering Rivers Edge Golf Club.

Tucked along a peaceful stretch of the river, this beautifully updated 3-bedroom, 3-bath waterfront home offers approximately 3,005 heated square feet and 3,215 total square feet including additional flex and storage spaces, creating generous room to live, entertain, and enjoy the coastal lifestyle.

Expansive windows frame sweeping river views and fill the home with natural light. The main living area features a striking shiplap fireplace wall, while thoughtful updates throughout include fresh coastal paint, board-and-batten accents, crown molding, updated lighting, and new ceiling fans. The kitchen offers granite countertops, ample workspace, and an easy flow for everyday living or entertaining.

The primary suite provides a peaceful retreat with water views and an ensuite bath featuring a two-person jacuzzi tub, tiled walk-in shower, and generous closet space. Additional bedrooms and baths offer comfortable accommodations for family and guests.

A standout feature is the separate 20×30 detached garage/workshop with loft space, finished with drywall and equipped with a mini-split climate system – ideal for car collectors, hobbyists, or additional storage.

Outdoor living truly shines with riverfront porches and refreshing coastal breezes. The private dock system offers approximately 6 feet of depth at low tide, a 10,000-lb boat lift, floating dock with ramp access, electric, water, lighting, and fish cleaning station. From the dock, the Intracoastal Waterway is just a 10-minute boat ride away.

Additional features include a Carolina Lift elevator, whole-home generator, tankless hot water system, central vacuum, three HVAC systems, irrigation well, and approximately 18 mature palm trees.

With deep water access, generous land, versatile workshop space, and no HOA, this Shallotte River property offers a rare opportunity for peaceful waterfront living close to everything Brunswick County’s coastal communities have to offer.
