Discover a rare waterfront opportunity on one of the largest and most private lots in this highly sought after midtown neighborhood. A unique combination of space, privacy, and opportunity. This spacious two-story home sits on two full lots (1.46 acres) creating an expansive buffer of mature trees and natural privacy. Property borders a navigable, tidal creek with direct access to the Cape Fear River. Perfect for kayaking or just enjoying the quiet beauty of the water. The interior floorplan is generous and flexible with large rooms for everyone and everything. The home features: 4 bedrooms and 2.5 baths, large bonus room with a separate entrance ideal for a home office or studio, and all the formal spaces: dining room, living room, and family room, a spacious kitchen with a big breakfast nook, two fireplaces, and a bright sunroom leading out to the deck with wide creek and marsh views.
