About this home
Custom-Built Coastal Retreat with Sweeping Water Views -- Second Row on Harkers Island Now $40K under recent appraisal, with two fresh HVAC systems! Wake up to panoramic views of Core Sound and the Cape Lookout Lighthouse from this thoughtfully custom-built home on one of Harkers Island. Positioned second row, the elevated vantage point delivers unobstructed water views from multiple living spaces and the expansive upper deck. Built in 2013 with quality and longevity in mind, this 3-bedroom, 3-bath home was designed from the ground up for low-maintenance coastal living. The exterior features durable Hardie board siding and vinyl trim that hold up against the salt air without the constant upkeep, while the recent roof provides decades of worry-free protection. The deep covered porches on both levels invite you to slow down and take in the view -- whether it's a morning cup of coffee with the sunrise over the sound or an evening watching boats and wildlife. Inside, the open floor plan is flooded with natural light and oriented to capture the water views from the main living area. The layout is practical and generous, with each bedroom offering its own full bath -- ideal for family gatherings, vacation rental use, or hosting guests. The home's custom construction is evident in the details: solid framing, thoughtful room proportions, and finishes chosen to complement the coastal setting rather than fight it. The outdoor spaces are equally impressive. The aerial photography tells the story clearly -- from above, you can see Core Sound stretching toward Cape Lookout National Seashore, with the lighthouse visible on the horizon and all of Harkers Island just minutes away on foot or by golf cart. This is a community where neighbors still know each other, where the seafood is fresh off the boat, and where the pace of life is exactly what it should be. No HOA. No cookie-cutter construction. Just a well-built home in one of the Crystal Coast's most authentic waterfront communities.
