Escape to the quiet end of the street. Lot 644 sits at the tail of a peaceful cul-de-sac in Summerhouse on Everett Bay, a gated waterfront community along the Intracoastal Waterway in Holly Ridge, NC -- offering a rare pocket of calm with no through-traffic, no passing cars, and space to simply slow down. This is a homesite for buyers who want a true retreat: a private, tucked-away setting shaded by coastal trees, where mornings are quiet and evenings even quieter. Step outside your own slice of stillness and the rest of Summerhouse is still there when you want it -- a luxury clubhouse, resort pool, fitness center, tennis and pickleball courts, day docks, kayak launch, and walking trails winding past the community's lakes -- but none of it intrudes on the peace of this address. Topsail Island's beaches are a short drive away for when you want the shoreline, Wilmington is about 30 minutes out, and Jacksonville is close for everyday needs. Yet coming home means turning off the main road, following the cul-de-sac to its end, and arriving somewhere genuinely quiet. Private, peaceful, and rarely available -- schedule your tour today.
