Enjoy the tranquil water views, wildlife, and established landscape from this stunning creek-front home on Futch Creek Road in sought-after Porters Neck. This gorgeous home boasts the popular Somerset floor plan by Charter Building Group. The home's cozy living room features a gas fireplace flanked by built-in cabinets and bookcases. The nearby gourmet chef's kitchen offers ample granite counter space and island, a double oven, powerful exhaust fan, and large pantry. Located on the main level, the primary suite includes two closets, a large luxury bathroom, lanai access, and a fantastic view of the surrounding nature. Plentiful windows and glass exterior doors bathe the home in natural light and allow for spectacular views of the creek from the office (or converted bedroom), dining nook, living room, and primary bedroom. The screened lanai and ipe wood deck - overlooking the backyard with its Zen garden design, firepit area, and views of the creek - offer space for peaceful relaxation. Water access is more generous at high tide, making it possible to kayak or take out a small boat, as Futch Creek connects to the Intracoastal Waterway. Even at low tide, nature lovers can enjoy the landscape by watching the appearances of egrets, herons, osprey, and other wildlife along the creek bed. For those desiring additional boating access, the low annual HOA dues include access to a private neighborhood lot on Bald Eagle Lane with a boat ramp straight into the ICWW. Other important attributes include the whole-house generator connected to an owned 500-gallon buried propane fuel tank and window treatments which include plantation shutters and cordless top-down/bottom-up shades. The home is conveniently located near Porters Neck Country Club - which offers memberships for its McConnell golf course and other sports and social activities - and area shopping centers; additionally, it is just 11 miles from Wrightsville Beach.
