About this home

Off Island. Hard Bottom. Deep Water. Two septic systems installed. Engineered fill. Professional retaining wall. Lot sits high. Most soundfront buyers spend years searching for a lot like this -- and even then they're starting from scratch. 285 Live Oak Road is different. The heavy lifting is already done. Two septic systems have been professionally installed and permitted -- a 3-bedroom system on the back portion and a 4-bedroom system on the waterfront side -- giving a buyer two independently buildable homesites and zero permitting delay. The lot has been built up with engineered fill and finished with a professional retaining wall along the waterfront edge, creating an elevated, stable building pad that keeps you well above the flood concerns that follow most soundfront parcels. No flood insurance headaches. No grading. No waiting. Just build. The setting backs all of it up. Over an acre of Bogue Sound frontage with deep water, hard bottom, and direct ICW access in seconds. A small natural island sits across the water, shielding the shoreline from heavy wake and surf and keeping the Sound calm and protected. The views stretch across to the entirety of Bogue Banks -- boats moving through the Sound all day and some of the finest sunsets on the Crystal Coast every evening. Whether you are a builder looking for a premier Crystal Coast project, a buyer ready to create a private soundfront compound, or someone searching for the ultimate beach getaway with room to build exactly what you want -- this lot delivers the foundation, the infrastructure, and the setting to make it happen. Offered as a single 1.063-acre soundfront estate. The dual septic systems also support a future split into two separately buildable parcels, subject to county approval
