74 Driftwood Court, Minnesott Beach

Four garage bays, a first-floor owner's suite, and a quiet cul-de-sac setting in one of Pamlico County's favorite golf and river communities. This 2004 two story home offers nearly 2,900 square feet on just over 0.41 acre, with no HOA and room for every hobby, vehicle, and project you've been putting off. The welcoming covered front porch opens to a bright entry foyer, with a formal dining room and a living room with gas-log fireplace on either side. Toward the back of the home, the main living space opens up: a vaulted family room with skylight, and French doors to the deck and then flows into a breakfast nook and a kitchen with warm wood cabinetry, a long peninsula for casual meals, a pantry, and sliding doors that bring in natural light. A half bath and a dedicated laundry room round out the main level. The owner's suite is on the first floor with vaulted ceilings, a skylight, a ceiling fan, walk in closet space, and its own private bath with dual vanity. Upstairs you'll find three more bedrooms, two full baths, and a huge bonus room ready for a home gym, game room, or media space. One upstairs bath includes a built-in vanity counter, and the rooms feature large windows and plenty of storage. Outside is where this property really shines. A two-car attached garage connects to the home, and a separate two car detached garage with windows and wood-finished walls makes an ideal workshop, boat storage, or hobby space. There's also a storage shed, a wide stamped concrete driveway with plenty of parking, a wood deck, and a brick walled back patio surrounded by mature pines. Practical extras include municipal water, an owned propane tank, and a seller provided home warranty. Lake Minnesott Estates sits just minutes from the Neuse River, the Minnesott Beach-Cherry Branch ferry for an easy crossing toward Havelock and Cherry Point, and the sailing town of Oriental. You get the peace of coastal Pamlico County living while still being close to New Bern and beyond.
