A sparkling sunrise over the pond, coastal breezes through the trees, and thoughtfully designed indoor-outdoor living define this beautifully upgraded home at 131 Everett Park Trail in the gated Summerhouse on Everett Bay community. Positioned in a quiet, established section of the neighborhood toward the back of the community, the home captures peaceful water and wooded views from the front porch and upper living spaces. On especially calm mornings, the distant sound of the ocean can even be heard from the front deck -- a subtle reminder that the beaches of Topsail Island are only minutes away. A standout feature of the home is its two thoughtfully designed sunroom spaces, creating comfortable indoor-outdoor living throughout the seasons. The upper level offers a glass-enclosed three-season sunroom filled with natural light, a private wooded view, and peace and quiet, while the lower level features hurricane-rated screens with ceramic tile, providing a breezy, shaded retreat directly off the ground-level entertaining space. Inside, the home blends open living with thoughtful craftsmanship. The living area features 9-foot ceilings on both levels, crown molding, upgraded LED lighting, tinted windows, and an oversized fireplace with upgraded hearth and blower. The kitchen is equally well appointed with KitchenAid appliances, a double oven, soft-close cabinetry, custom tile backsplash and details, and upgraded Sensa Stone countertops with a 15-year transferable warranty. The primary suite offers a comfortable private retreat, highlighted by a luxurious six-foot jetted soaking tub with an inline heater designed to maintain water temperature for extended relaxation. Designed with flexibility in mind, the ground level includes a separate private entrance with living area, wet bar/kitchenette, bedroom, and full bathroom, making it ideal for guests, extended family, or potential multigenerational living. The outdoor setting is enhanced by an extensive variety of landscaping and mature plantings, including a beautiful magnolia tree anchoring the backyard, adding seasonal blooms, and a classic Southern landscape. Numerous upgrades throughout the home add both comfort and peace of mind, including a brand-new 5-ton 17.5 SEER HVAC system installed in 2025 with Ecobee smart thermostats, a 24kW whole-house generator with buried propane tank, elevator-ready construction currently used as generous storage, widened driveways, irrigation system, dedicated golf cart garage, and a 12x12 storage shed with loft and electrical wiring. The home was also built with additional elevation above standard construction height and sits approximately 25 feet above sea level, and is located outside the high-risk flood zone, eliminating the requirement of flood insurance. Summerhouse on Everett Bay offers one of the most desirable coastal lifestyles in the region, with resort-style amenities including a pool, clubhouse, fitness center, tennis courts, walking trails, boat launch, and Intracoastal Waterway access. From the home, it is just a five-minute walk to the community clubhouse, pool, and fitness center, and a ten minute walk to the day dock, making it easy to enjoy everything the neighborhood has to offer. Thoughtfully upgraded, carefully maintained, and positioned in one of the most peaceful areas of the community, 131 Everett Park Trail offers an exceptional opportunity to enjoy coastal living just minutes from the beaches of Topsail Island.
