This detached, stand-alone condo is just footsteps from the crystal waters and sandy beaches of Pine Knoll Shores. Its well-designed layout and unique upgrades set this single-family-style home apart from others like it. With a spacious, open-concept primary living area separate from both bedrooms, the second level offers a family room full of natural lighting, deluxe, durable LVP flooring, a contemporary gas fireplace, and access to the front sun deck overlooking the community pond and water fountain. Further, the kitchen has stylish granite countertops, modern stainless steel appliances, ample cabinetry, and a full pantry. Here, there is generous space to gather in the living room and with both an eat-in bar and a designated dining area, you are right at home for your everyday needs and for entertaining family and friends. Additionally, what distinguishes this home even more is the second level's half-bath; now, when upstairs, neither you nor guests have to go up or down steps or enter either of the bedrooms for a bathroom. Finally, this level offers a 200 sq. ft. covered, screened back deck with a metal roof and views of the golf course, extending your indoor living outdoors for all seasons and weather conditions. Downstairs, the primary bedroom includes both a linen and walk-in closet, a freshly painted ensuite with a new vanity, and patio access to the private outdoor hot-water shower. The guest bedroom, also with direct outdoor access, comes with plantation blinds for style and privacy. Additionally, there is a full guest bathroom and a garage, which could be converted into an additional 260 sq. ft. of living space. This home's improvements continue outside with pull-down patio privacy shades, Bahama-style shutters, a new FORTIFIED hurricane-rated roof, partial Hardie-board siding, and a new HVAC. With reasonable HOA dues of $2,200 annually and its location on Pine Knoll Shores' championship golf course, it's time to ''tee off'' on your piece of paradise.
