Rare Backyard Privacy -- A Peaceful Coastal Home Designed for Easy Living! If your next home is about less maintenance, more privacy, and more time to enjoy the Carolina coast, this Arbor Creek property deserves your attention. One of its most valuable features is something you simply cannot add later: a protected wooded backyard where you'll never have another home built directly behind you. Located on one of the largest cul-de-sac homesites in Arbor Creek, this beautifully maintained 2019 home offers over 1,800 square feet with a comfortable, manageable floor plan that's ideal for buyers ready to simplify without sacrificing quality. Start your morning with coffee overlooking the trees, spend an afternoon gardening in the fenced backyard, or relax with friends while enjoying the quiet wooded setting. The Carolina room may quickly become your favorite space, with its vaulted ceiling and peaceful backyard views. Use it as a reading room, home office, hobby space, or comfortable overflow space when family comes to visit. Inside, you'll find engineered hardwood flooring throughout the main living areas, granite countertops, white cabinetry, stainless steel appliances, and a spacious family room with cathedral ceiling and gas-log fireplace. The private primary suite overlooks the wooded backyard and features a custom tiled walk-in shower. The owners have also made thoughtful improvements designed to make everyday living easier, including a whole-house AquaOx water filtration system, new water heater (2025), KitchenAid dishwasher, super-quiet InSinkErator disposal, custom shades and plantation shutters, gutter guards, polyaspartic-coated garage floor, and a fully fenced backyard that's ready for pets or gardening. And when you're ready to get out and enjoy life, Arbor Creek makes it easy. Community amenities include a clubhouse, fitness center, outdoor swimming pool, tennis courts, and boat and RV storage. You're just minutes from Oak Island's beaches, golf, shopping, medical facilities, and historic downtown Southport--giving you the coastal lifestyle without living directly in the middle of the beach crowds. For the buyer who has reached the point where peace, privacy, convenience, and quality of life matter more than having a bigger house, this home offers an appealing combination. Month-to-month tenants are currently in place through September. Please provide 24-hour notice when possible, or contact the listing agent if you need an earlier appointment.
