Tucked centrally between Morehead City and Emerald Isle is just over 10 acres of a gardener's paradise. This 4 bed 2 bath custom built home sits on approximately 3 acres of cleared land surrounded by organically managed gardens, a blueberry patch, a variety of fruit trees, a greenhouse, and a beautiful custom built agricultural barn constructed from trees that were cleared from the land and milled on site. In addition there is a chicken coop, beehive stands, and a tool shed built by the West Carteret High School shop class. The rear garden has been double lined with a solar powered electric fence to protect crops from deer and other animals. Thermal mass barrels are located in the greenhouse to help produce heat in the winter.
This house was built by Tommy Simpson and features a split floor plan with an open living area, plantation shutters in all 4 bedrooms, a gas and electric fireplace, a large mudroom/laundry room, and two screened porches which provide a beautiful view of the yard and gardens. The previous owners thought of everything when adding finishing touches. A Kinetico water softener and sulfur guard system, Hurricane shutters for the south and east facing windows, and a Yamaha generator (with a separate circuit board and outside plug powers lights, refrigerator, and well pump) to provide peace of mind during hurricane season. Not to mention the property is not in a flood zone! A two car garage and covered 2 car carport allow for ample parking.
