Property Description
Where the tranquil waters of Jean Guite Creek meet the Currituck Sound, you'll discover a waterfront retreat that captures the very essence of coastal living. Lovingly cherished by the same family for nearly 30 years, this beautifully updated 3-bedroom, 3-bath home offers the rare opportunity to enjoy breathtaking water views in every direction—from sweeping sound vistas across the back to the peaceful canal that graces the front of the property. In fact, EVERY ROOM IN THE HOME - EVEN THE LAUNDRY ROOM! - ENJOYS A VIEW OF THE WATER. Inside, thoughtful renovations blend timeless style with effortless comfort. The UPDATED GOURMET KITCHEN is the heart of the home, showcasing quartz countertops, upscale neutral tile backsplash, alabaster cabinetry, ALL NEW stainless steel appliances, a wet bar, and an impressive gas range beneath a custom hood. Whether preparing a casual breakfast or entertaining guests, this space is designed to impress.
The open-concept living and dining areas are framed by walls of windows that showcase PANORAMIC WATER VIEWS while skylights flood the space with natural light. Bleached driftwood engineered wood flooring throughout the main level enhances the relaxed coastal aesthetic, creating an inviting atmosphere you'll never want to leave. The MAIN LEVEL PRIMARY SUITE offers a peaceful retreat with private deck access, multiple closets, and an elegant ensuite bath featuring a double-sink vanity. A second spacious bedroom on the main level enjoys its own deck access and conveniently located, beautifully updated, hall bath with an oversized vanity. Even everyday tasks become a pleasure in the oversized laundry room, complete with an undermount sink, quartz countertops, alabaster cabinetry, and stylish gold hardware. Upstairs, guests will delight in a private third bedroom suite with hardwood flooring, a whimsical ensuite bath, and direct access to its own sun deck, where spectacular creek and sound views provide the perfect backdrop for morning coffee or evening stargazing. Outside is where this home truly shines. A sprawling sun deck stretches the length of the home, offering front-row seats to unforgettable sunsets and the ever-changing beauty of the Currituck Sound. The PRIVATE DOCK WITH BUILT-IN SEATING invites you to fish, launch a kayak or paddleboard, or simply relax while watching boats drift by. For those seeking even more waterfront convenience, canal dockage at the front of the property may be leased through the Town of Southern Shores for an additional fee, providing a protected place for your boat and easy access to navigable waters. MAJOR SYSTEMS UPDATES make this home truly move-in ready: HVAC systems (inside and out) were replaced in 2025 and 2026, the roof was replaced in 2023, the main water heater was replaced in 2026, the expansive deck was freshly stained in 2026, all kitchen appliances were replaced in 2026, and the septic system has been recently pumped. Owners also have the option to join the Southern Shores Civic Association, providing access to marina facilities, sound accesses, private beach access parking, scenic walking and biking trails, and a beautiful soundfront park where dazzling sunsets become part of daily life. Add on the racquet membership for access to tennis and pickle ball! Duck Woods Country Club is also nearby, where members enjoy a private pool and access to its renowned golf facilities and racquet sports. Ideally located just minutes from the Outer Banks' finest restaurants, boutique shopping, coffee shops, and local attractions, this exceptional property offers the perfect balance of peaceful waterfront living and convenient access to everything the Outer Banks has to offer. This is more than a home—it's a lifestyle. Come experience waterfront living at its finest and discover why generations have fallen in love with Southern Shores.
