About this home
A generous backdrop of open green space and an inviting, light-filled interior give this Fairfield Harbour home a setting that is both appealing and hard to replicate. Backing to the former golf course grounds, the property enjoys a view beyond the rear yard rather than another row of homes, creating a natural sense of space and privacy. Inside, the foyer opens to a spacious one-story floor plan where vaulted ceilings, warm wood flooring, and an easy connection between the main living areas create a welcoming flow. The living room is anchored by a wood-burning brick fireplace flanked by built-in shelving and cabinetry, adding both character and a natural focal point. A dedicated dining area sits nearby, while the kitchen keeps everyday living connected with stainless steel appliances, ample cabinetry, generous counter space, and a separate breakfast nook. Just beyond the living room, the den brings even more flexibility to the floor plan and leads directly to the enclosed screened porch, extending the living space toward the outdoors and the expansive green space beyond. The primary suite offers a comfortable retreat with a walk-in closet and private bath featuring a dual-sink vanity and walk-in shower. Two additional bedrooms provide flexibility for guests, hobbies, or a home office. A full two-car garage with two separate doors adds valuable storage and everyday convenience. Fairfield Harbour adds another dimension to the property with its gated waterfront setting and an impressive collection of community amenities, including boating and marina facilities, golf, swimming pools, recreation and fitness facilities, tennis and pickleball, walking areas, and more. And for additional peace of mind, the sellers report that this home did not experience floodwater intrusion during Hurricane Florence. With its open floor plan, one-level living, flexible spaces, substantial garage, and especially appealing green-space setting, this is a home worth seeing in person to fully appreciate what sets it apart.
