***Highest & Best Offers due by Sept 4th at 8pm. Welcome home to this move-in ready one level ranch in the highly sought after Washington Acres area in Hampstead, NC. Built in 2016 and only 5 years old, this shows like a brand new model home. This coastal charmer has 3 bedrooms and 2 baths and sits on a large .49 acre lot with a private fenced in back yard. Bring your boat and your RV if you like because this home is not located in an HOA and there are no monthly fees or stringent rules to abide by. As you walk up to the front door you will notice the beautiful cedar shake wood siding on the entire front side of the home. The inviting rocking chair front porch has over 250sf and is large enough for many possible furniture arrangements. There are so many areas for indoor-outdoor living including a 21ftx6ft covered patio area out back and a massive 21ftx17ft uncovered patio area added by the sellers that offer limitless possibilities. The back yard has a nice buffer of natural trees and room for expansion. When you walk through the front door you'll be in awe of the large vaulted ceilings and modern open floorplan perfect for the needs of today's buyer. The spacious and bright living room has a fireplace with propane gas logs to set the mood and warm things up in the cooler months. Upgrades galore throughout such as wood floors in the main areas and all bedrooms, tile in the bathrooms, and sheik lighting fixtures. In the kitchen are granite countertops and white shaker cabinets with soft close doors and drawers. Cute master bedroom with sliding barn door on the master closet and a large master bathroom with dual vanities and room to move around. The third bedroom can double as an office or a bedroom with french doors leading to the living room. There really is so much to love about this home, especially its location which is just 10 minutes away from Wilmington, 20 minutes to Surf City/Topsail Island Beaches and is also in the award winning Topsail School District.
