Southern Cross is now being offered with a second purchase option, approximately 12± acres along Hadnot Creek in Carteret County, with survey currently in process. Priced at $1,790,000, this newly configured offering provides substantial acreage, two residences, waterfront access, and extensive supporting improvements while giving buyers an alternative to purchasing the full 22-acre parcel. The property is unzoned, with no deed restrictions and no HOA, offering unusual flexibility for those seeking room for horses, gardening, recreation, equipment, additional outbuildings, or other future uses, subject to applicable Carteret County approvals. The setting combines wooded acreage, gently rolling terrain, tidal creek frontage, and long marsh views that give the property a true sense of privacy without feeling remote. The custom 3-bedroom, 2.5-bath main residence was built in 2010 in a low-country style using ICF construction, a building method valued for strength, energy efficiency, and wind resistance. The home offers more than 2,500 heated square feet above approximately 1,480 square feet of heated and cooled garage space. A Kohler whole-house generator, dual heat system, and engineered double-footer construction add to the home's substantial infrastructure. Wide covered porches wrap the residence and extend the living space outdoors. Inside, Brazilian cherry flooring, a soaring two-story stone fireplace, custom kitchen with copper sinks and a 36-inch gas range, primary suite with direct rear porch access, and a library or office with its own half bath create a home that feels distinctive, comfortable, and well suited to the property around it. A separate carriage house adds even more versatility. The 1-bedroom, 1.5-bath residence sits above a three-car garage and includes a full kitchen, loft-style great room, full bath, bamboo and tile flooring, skylights, and a cupola that brings natural light into the space. It works equally well as guest quarters, a multigenerational living arrangement, private office or studio, or potential rental use. Additional improvements include a 24 x 50 metal utility building with five garage doors, swimming pool with pool house studio, chicken coop, tool shed, greenhouse, and an RV and boat parking pad with electric service. At the water's edge, a private pier on Hadnot Creek includes a boat lift, kayak rack, electricity, and water. Launch a kayak from the backyard, spend an afternoon fishing from the dock, or simply watch the marsh wildlife from home. Hadnot Creek connects directly with the White Oak River, opening the door to miles of coastal water and exploration. Historic Swansboro, Cape Carteret, and Cedar Point are only minutes away, with Emerald Isle beaches approximately 15 minutes across the bridge. Southern Cross offers the kind of space and privacy that can be increasingly difficult to find this close to the Crystal Coast. The existing four-bedroom septic system serves both residences. Pool and pool house are unpermitted structures. Acreage is approximate and subject to final survey. Buyers should independently verify acreage, permitting, septic, zoning, intended uses, and all applicable requirements with Carteret County prior to purchase. *Full 22 acre estate offered at $2,190,000 (see MLS 100573587).

Peeks of Bogue Sound, on a 0.42-acre home site, and the freedom of no HOA make this beautifully maintained custom home a rare opportunity in Archers Point. As the morning sun rises over Bogue Sound, neighbors greet one another while walking their dogs, children playing outside, and the peaceful atmosphere reminds you why Emerald Isle is such a special place to call home. Built on an elevated foundation for coastal living, this 2,568-square-foot custom home offers three bedrooms, three full baths, and a spacious reverse floor plan designed to capture the beauty of the Sound. The upper deck became my observatory. With a star-finder app and the relatively low background lighting, many evenings were spent identifying constellations, planets, and other celestial wonders. It is also the perfect place to enjoy the sunrise, relax with a cup of coffee, or simply listen to nature. Deer, squirrels, butterflies, and seasonal frogs are all part of the natural beauty that surrounds this property. The home has been meticulously maintained with new exterior paint, newly stained decks, refinished hardwood floors, a whole-house water filtration system, tankless water heater, oversized two-car garage, and durable cement fiber exterior. One of the unique advantages of the property is its outstanding potential for a future swimming pool. After meeting with the City Planner to review the property and the applicable CAMA requirements, I was encouraged to learn that the three immediately adjacent properties had all met those requirements and successfully built their pools. Just minutes from Emerald Isle's beaches are restaurants, shopping, festivals, and the island's popular bike path, this home offers the perfect balance of coastal living and everyday convenience. Within almost walking distance sits the NC Wildlife Public Boat Ramp for those who enjoy fishing or riding the waves. A beautifully refurbished golf cart is included with an acceptable full-price offer, making it even easier to enjoy everything Emerald Isle has to offer.
