The pinnacle of Southport North Carolina's Coastal lifestyle is right at your fingertips in one of Brunswick Counties premier cottage communities! Available for the first time and offered by the original owner, this 3 year young home is in better than new condition and ready for immediate occupancy.
From the moment you walk in the door of this amazing home, you'll be impressed with thought and care that went into its construction. From the hickory hardwood floors to the colorized electric fireplace, the detail and craftsmanship is easily recognized. A warm and cozy main living area gives the feel of comfort and warmth yet the impressive open footprint is outstanding for entertaining.
A massive sliding custom made barn door with a oversized entryway leads to the two guest bedrooms which can have dual purpose as media rooms or office. A fascinating feature in the room staged as an office is the very unique construction of the attic pull down stairs with a scissor system of stairs and custom handrails, designed for safety and efficiency, with an ingenious lift system for utilization of the massive attic storage space. Closed cell foam insulation in the entire open attic span with painted floors, LED lighting, motion sensor switches and wall outlets throughout make this a most functional storage space.
The quality of construction and pride of ownership continues through the home as you wander through the wide-open kitchen, complete with gleaming granite tops, multiple workstations, soft close cabinetry, induction stove top, and an incredibly practical pantry loaded with built-ins.
One of the highlights of this charming home is the brightly lit Carolina room, with tasteful ceramic flooring, vaulted ceilings, and a feeling of springtime all year round. Let's not forget that the home is fitted with custom plantation shutters throughout and would be the ideal home for a simple handicapped accessibility conversion and an entire whole home surround sound system. Five pocket doors are integrated into the structure, increasing livability by eliminating door swings.
The Primary Suite is a showcase of its own with an incredible bath/laundry combo, perfect for functionality and ease of use. A roomy walk-in closet with plenty of room for accessories and room to spread out.
Equipped with a large crofter styled loft over the detached two car garage, this is the ideal space for privacy as an office, craft or music room, and features a private half bath with a dedicated mini-split heating cooling system and an on demand natural gas hot water heater.
Additional features include a tasteful and private outdoor shower for beach days or an afternoon at the Cades Cove community pool, for residents and guests only. Also equipped with a whole house emergency generator, two stamped concrete patios with a custom wood framed pergola, epoxy flooring in the garage, hidden storage area under the loft stairs, and a most tasteful landscape environment with wrought iron fencing and multiple solar security cameras for added safety.
Landscaping includes Empire Zoysia grass, impeccable concrete/brick edging around all foundation bedding, and an irrigation system with a dedicated water meter. All doorways and entry points have a roof covering for inclement weather.
Cades Cove is a short bicycle ride or Golf Cart jaunt to Southport's Historic District, and conveniently located to eateries, places of worship, and boutique shopping. Five minutes to a Brunswick Beach and a 20-minute ferry ride to Bald Head Island, countless golf courses for pure enjoyment of the coastal lifestyle.
