Eastern NC Country Estate~ Panoramic Water views~ Stunning Sunsets~ Mini-Resort

Enjoy a true mini-resort experience with a game room, outdoor entertainment spaces, and wide porches made for soaking in breathtaking sunsets and gentle Sound breezes. Spend your days biking, fishing, kayaking, playing lawn games, or picking blueberries in season—or simply slow down and relax.
