Rare waterfront ranch-style opportunity in River Reach! Enjoy the best of both worlds here - close proximity to downtown Swansboro, while also offering peace and tranquility as the perfect boater's paradise. The inviting covered front porch leads into the foyer, and down the hall you will find your three spacious bedrooms and two full baths, with the primary featuring a walk-in shower. In the main part of the house, you have an open concept kitchen, living room and dining room. Ample cabinet space and granite countertops highlight the kitchen, as well as a half bath for your convenience. The oversized living room is flooded with natural light flowing in from the double wall of windows, and is finished with a fireplace to warm up to in the few chilly months we have. Off the kitchen is your covered, screened in porch. Relax and enjoy peaceful mornings sipping coffee and watching the sunrise over the White Oak, as the porch faces due East. Moving to the backyard, there are a multitude of different ways to put this space to its best use. The dock was expanded an additional 70ft in 2023, and a 10,000lb boat lift was added. Spend your lazy days from spring until fall on the river on the dock's seating area, floating, or kayaking. Hop on the boat and be at Bear Island, The Point, Hammock's Beach, the Bogue Sound, or any sandbar in minutes. Or spend the day on the river fishing and watching the sunset! The community also includes a day dock and recreation area. If you love the outdoors but also love the convenience of being close to town, your search is over. The perfect location will not last long! Close to base and Crystal Coast beaches, and no flood insurance required.
