236 Hickory Shores Drive

Newport, NC 28570

Whether you're looking for a forever home or a beach home away from home, this big, bright Hickory Shores house with gorgeous sound views has it all. Enjoy said views from the deck, screened porch, or after a dip in your own private saltwater pool. Inside, this 3-bedroom home (per septic permit) lives like a 5-bedroom home (3 bedrooms upstairs + 2 flex spaces that can easily be used as bedrooms downstairs). On the main level, the spacious great room features an open living room, dining room, and kitchen. The super clean kitchen is bright and neutral, ideal if you love the sleek minimal look, or the perfect blank canvas if you want to customize it later. An oversized peninsula provides additional seating for guests. There is a corner fireplace in the living room for cozy days and evenings, and a screened porch off the dining room, perfect for entertaining or enjoying the view and breeze with a cup of coffee. Just a 10-minute drive to the Emerald Isle bridge, your new home may attract a guest or two, and with 5 bedrooms, this house can handle it. A large guest bathroom and two generously sized guest bedrooms are upstairs and feature lush new carpet, as does the primary suite located at the back of the house for maximum privacy. The suite features soaring ceilings, 2 walk-in closets, and a lovely bathroom with a tub, large shower, and double sinks. Downstairs, there are two huge rooms, which could be additional bedrooms, or a den, studio, pool room, home theater, etc. The bedrooms are separated by a huge bathroom and laundry room + pool entrance. Just 3.5 years old, the fiberglass saltwater pool is both beloved and low-maintenance. Perfect for laps or relaxing, the pool is fenced in and has plenty of space around it for entertaining or lounging and enjoying a good book. Also downstairs, find a huge garage (sellers fit two cars + a golf cart inside), perfect for storage or projects. The garage is also home to the control panel for the lawn irrigation system, featuring sprinklers in the front and back yards. HOA is $300/year and includes use of the dock, community/public areas, road maintenance, and community/public area maintenance. While the priceless view and access to the Intracoastal Waterway are huge draws (Enjoy kayaking? You're in luck if so!), the location has some other great perks. Want the luxury of a coastal property without the stress and worry of an on-the-beach house? The property is a mere 3 houses from the water, so you can enjoy the view without the fear of flooding. The best of both worlds! It's also in a coveted school district (White Oak Elementary, Broad Creek Middle, Croatan High) and just a few minutes from the new Western Carteret County Boat Launch Facility and The Center for Coastal Protection and Restoration (two new projects worth looking into). Whether you're looking for a home base for your Beaches of North Carolina Adventures, a place to hang your sunhat all summer, or a forever home with breathtaking year-round views, 236 Hickory Shores Drive is a can't-miss.
