Rare opportunity to be on 30A backing up to preserve under $800k! Extensively renovated over the last two years, this 3-bedroom plus dedicated home office sits on a private quarter-acre lot backing directly to a protected state forest preserve. Step into an airy, light-filled open-concept layout featuring premium wide-plank LVP flooring and upgraded designer lighting throughout. The reimagined kitchen is built for entertaining, showcasing an oversized center island, new countertops, custom plaster vent hood, tiled backsplash, and stainless steel appliances. The primary suite serves as a quiet sanctuary with dual closets featuring custom built-in systems and a spa bath with a custom glass walk-in tile shower and double vanity. Both bathrooms have been completely transformed with stunning floor-to-ceiling tilework, new vanities, and upgraded fixtures. The laundry room offers added utility with custom built-in cabinetry. Outdoors, a new timber deck overlooks a flat, fully fenced yard with serene preserve views and plenty of room to add a pool. Located in a quiet neighborhood with low HOA fees and no short-term rentals--just minutes from Topsail Hill Preserve, 30A beach accesses, dining favorites (Stinky's, Shunk Gulley, 3 Sons), and the new Club 30A gym.
