Waterfront living on Whittaker Creek with a protected boat slip right in your own backyard! Located in the heart of Oriental--the Sailing Capital of the Carolinas--this exceptional single-level home offers direct, deep-water access to the Neuse River, the Intracoastal Waterway, and the renowned anchorages of the Pamlico Sound. The protected backyard boat slip measures 26' by 12' with a mean high water depth of roughly 5 feet, providing seamless year-round navigation for sailboat owners and boating enthusiasts. Situated just a short walk, bike ride, or golf cart trip from local harbor events, eateries, and maritime shops, this property delivers the ideal balance of serene coastal privacy and vibrant village living. Designed for effortless main-level living, the residence features 3 bedrooms and 2 full bathrooms, including a primary suite complete with an en-suite bath and a walk-in closet. The light-filled, open-concept living area boasts elevated ceilings, oversized windows, and skylights that stream natural light throughout the home, highlighting rich hardwood floors. A peaceful sunroom offers water views of Whittaker Creek and provides the ultimate setting to relax and enjoy gentle coastal breezes. Set on a sprawling 0.68-acre corner lot, the exterior grounds feature an indoor solarium/greenhouse ideal for year-round plant propagation and gardening, surrounding mature landscaping, and dedicated garden beds. Practicality meets versatility with a rare 3-bay attached garage alongside a dedicated workshop equipped with its own half bath and abundant storage--perfect for marine equipment, tools, or custom hobbies. Enjoy world-class kayaking, paddleboarding, and fishing right from your shore, with golf courses within 20 to 30 minutes and easy access to nearby coastal destinations like New Bern, Beaufort, and Atlantic Beach. The greenhouse room is shown virtually staged to show it's true potential. (Note: The 31' O'Day Anniversary Edition sailboat currently anchored at the dock is also available for separate purchase--contact listing agent for details.)
