218 Hillcrest Dr LOT 37, Kitty Hawk, NC 27949

This is the Southern Shores home you have been looking for! High on the dune and a quick walk to the beach and other community amenities. The house is essentially brand new, given all recent additions. There is nothing that needs to be done! FIVE BEDROOMS and THREE FULL BATHS makes this property suitable for SECOND HOME, INVESTMENT RENTAL or YEAR ROUND RESIDENCE. Upstairs you will find an open floorplan with an impressive great room leading directly into the RENOVATED KITCHEN. All new GE Stainless Appliances are surrounded by Corian™ countertops and abundant cabinet space. A bar area separates the chefs from the guests yet the open layout allows everyone to be together. This main gathering space has a vaulted ceiling and tall Andersen™ casement windows allowing plentiful natural light. The adjoining formal dining room has a pass-through window from the kitchen making mealtime efficient and quick. When the sellers built the home, they enlisted Rad Tillet as their general contractor. As anyone from this area can tell you, Rad Tillet has an exemplary reputation for building an extremely solid home. These owners decided on house plans that would emphasize the rear yard and pool area. By doing this, it created two wings of the house, both extending out from the aforementioned great room/kitchen area. Both wings have private suites as well as twin/full rooms...for a total of 4 bedrooms upstairs. There are five sliding doors opening onto the deck. Downstairs a spacious King suite was added, bringing the total to five. The rear yard is the Rockstar! Boasting an 18’x 32’ swimming pool with overlooking decks and a large outdoor shower, this space is ripe for entertaining. The entire yard (front and back) has been meticulously maintained by these master gardeners. Look around and you will see (and smell) Purple Vitex, Spirea, Lantana, Confederate Jasmine, Crepe Myrtles, and Magnolias, just to name a few. The house has seen many recent upgrades including: 2 brand new hot water heaters, new decking (w/ stainless fasteners), all new kitchen appliances, new exterior paint, and Hunter Douglas blinds. The roof was replaced less than 5 years ago. Other interior highlights consist of red oak flooring, tiled shower, Andersen Windows™ and numerous storage closets. Adjacent to the two-car garage is an impressive workshop that could easily be used as a gameroom or many other uses. Once again, useful storage abounds. The property is located within a five-minute walk to the beach, however it is on a very quiet street with an abundance of privacy. While this is currently a permanent residence, it would be a strong producer as a rental property. Rental income is projected to top $77,000 (detailed projection available). Southern Shores offers an array of community amenities such as, tennis, beach access, sound access, boat ramp, marina slips, and playgrounds through the Civic Association for a nominal fee. This house brings you everything in one package.
