Come on home to 498 New Road, where thoughtful renovations meet a quiet setting with a wooded backdrop. This 3bedroom, 2-bath with a great bonus room/office home has been updated throughout, offering a fresh, open layout that blends style and practicality.
Inside, the living space flows seamlessly into the dining and kitchen areas, creating the kind of open concept you'll actually use day-to-day. The kitchen itself is a highlight with white shaker soft-close cabinetry, quartz countertops, stainless steel appliances, and a clean design that makes both cooking and entertaining a pleasure.
The primary suite is spacious and private, on the opposite side of the home from the secondary bedrooms. It features a large closet and beautiful, tiled shower in the updated bath. Three additional rooms and a second full bathroom provide plenty of flexibility—whether for family, guests, or a dedicated home office. A separate laundry room adds ease to everyday living.
Step outside to the back deck overlooking the wooded backyard, where you'll enjoy a sense of privacy without sacrificing convenience. The attached garage and functional layout make this home as practical as it is beautiful.
Set just 10 minutes from the Coast Guard Base and ECSU, this property offers the best of both worlds—modern updates, a peaceful setting, and quick access to Elizabeth City amenities.
