Waterfront coastal cottage in downtown Manteo, on a deepwater canal with direct sound access. This location is truly special. Walk or hop in the golf cart to enjoy the restaurants and shops in historic Manteo. Keep your boat right behind the home in the canal, for easy quick access to the sound, with no dock fees! An unbuildable salt marsh across from the front of the home adds to the privacy and ambiance. Built in 2021, this home is like new, with multiple covered decks to take in the sound and canal views. The primary bedroom and en suite are on the main living level, along with the kitchen, living and eating space, laundry, and half bath. This practical layout provides you with everything you need on the main living floor. Clean, coastal finishes and tasteful upgrades abound in the home like shiplap walls, transoms above the windows, nautically-inspired light fixtures and ceiling fans and interior plantation shutters. The kitchen features stainless steel appliances, shaker cabinets, apron farmhouse sink and tile backsplash. The dry entry from the covered carport allows a convenient second entry into the home. A covered back deck spans the canal-side of the home and has views of the sound also, a perfect place to watch the boats go by, take in the views and get motivated to go out for a boat day. On the top floor, you'll find two more bedrooms, one with canal views and one with sound views and its own private sound-view porch! The bedrooms have nice storage space and share a beautiful jack-and-jill bathroom. Under the home, there's a storage room, covered entertaining space with a hot tub and plenty of covered concrete parking space. The home is located on a quiet street, tucked away, but close enough to all the charm and character of downtown Manteo, in a location with no HOA and easy sound access right from your backyard. It comes fully furnished, ready for you to relax and enjoy.
