THE FINEST PROTECTED HARBOR ON THE INTRACOASTAL WATERWAY. AND THE BEST HOUSE ON IT. 76 Soundside Drive is a 2023-built waterfront residence in Oriental, North Carolina, the Sailing Capital of North Carolina: 3,843 heated square feet, nearly 6,500 square feet under roof, on 1.89 private acres with approximately 100 feet of protected deep-water frontage on Grace Harbor at River Dunes (ICW Mile 173). Engineered for the coast, not just placed on it: insulated concrete form (ICF) construction with reinforced concrete walls, commercial-grade stone seawall, standing-seam metal hip roof, whole-home generator, and fiber internet with Starlink backup. The single-level floor plan puts water views in every main living space and includes two waterfront primary suites, each with French doors opening to the harbor, plus a directly connected flex room. Above the oversized heated 3-car garage, a finished bonus suite of approximately 1,100 square feet with wet bar serves as guest quarters, media room, or office. The signature space is a 1,400-square-foot covered and screened veranda with a double-sided fireplace and vented grilling station, overlooking the harbor. It functions as a true second living room, usable across all four seasons on the Inner Banks. Grace Harbor is a 400-slip protected inland-basin marina rated among the finest stops on the entire Intracoastal Waterway, a proven hurricane hole with floating ipe docks accommodating vessels to 150 feet, with immediate access to the Neuse River and Pamlico Sound. River Dunes is a 1,345-acre Southern Living Inspired Community with 14 miles of shoreline, a 328-acre conservation easement, Harbor Club dining, Yawls Cafe, fitness center, pool, and tennis. New Bern and its regional airport are about 35 minutes.

Located conveniently between New Bern and Oriental, this distinctive coastal estate brings together deep waterfront, equestrian infrastructure, substantial acreage, and newer construction in a setting designed for both recreation and retreat. Offered here as a complete estate, the property is also available as two separately priced offerings: the waterfront home, dock, boat lift, and workshop (Lots 1 and 2 Howells Road, MLS# 100609645); and the adjoining waterfront land, barn, and fenced pasture (Lots 3 and 4 Howells Road, MLS# 100609646). Buyers may acquire the entire property or either portion independently, subject to availability. Positioned on approximately 3.67 acres along a protected creek just minutes from the Neuse River, the home itself being outside the FEMA Special Flood Hazard Area, the property offers an exceptional combination of privacy, boating accessibility, open land, and recent, thoughtfully designed improvements, including a new low-maintenance fiber cement exterior finish, all within a single waterfront offering. Built in 2020 on elevated pilings, the residence was designed to embrace its waterfront surroundings while providing long-term durability within a coastal environment. Offering approximately 2,400 square feet, the home features elevated ceilings, an open-concept layout, quality finishes, and expansive covered outdoor living areas overlooking the water and surrounding natural landscape. Positioned well above the flood plain, the home captures both the beauty and practicality of coastal living. For boating enthusiasts, the property is exceptionally equipped with deep water access, a substantial concrete dock, and a 20,000-pound boat lift with direct access to the Neuse River and beyond. The protected creek frontage offers both usability and security for larger vessels while maintaining a peaceful and highly private setting framed by undeveloped marsh and natural shoreline. Beyond the waterfront, the estate offers remarkable flexibility of use. Two fenced pastures, a two-stall barn with tack room and hay storage, workshop space, and additional outbuildings create an authentic equestrian or hobby farm environment not often paired with quality waterfront property. The existing barn structure also presents intriguing potential for future guest accommodations, studio space, or expanded recreational use, subject to a buyer's vision. Comprised of three separate parcels, including two waterfront lots, the property offers a rare sense of scale, privacy, flexibility, and long-term potential that is increasingly difficult to replicate along the North Carolina coast. Whether envisioned as a boating retreat, equestrian property, multigenerational estate, or private coastal sanctuary, this is a property designed to support both lifestyle and legacy. Located within the Bairds Shores area of Pamlico County, owners also enjoy optional access to a gated community boat ramp while maintaining the privacy and independence of a secluded waterfront setting. Properties offering this combination of waterfront access, acreage, boating infrastructure, equestrian capability, and privacy are exceptionally rare. More than a waterfront home, this is a distinctive coastal property designed for those who value space, flexibility, and enduring connection to the water.
