Property Description
Opportunity awaits at 279 Merrimon Road with this .93-acre parcel ideally located near the North River and The Outer Banks National Scenic Byway. Offering approximately 131 feet of road frontage, this property provides a generous homesite with excellent potential for redevelopment, investment, or creating a new coastal retreat. The property experienced flooding during Hurricane Florence in 2018, and the existing structures sustained damage. The value is in the land, and the structures are being sold as-is with no assigned value. With its convenient location along the Merrimon Road corridor and close proximity to the water, this property presents a unique opportunity for buyers looking to build, invest, or reimagine the space while enjoying the natural beauty and coastal lifestyle on the Crystal Coast. Just Add Water to Your Lifestyle!
