    What's special

    Private sanctuaryWonderfully tucked awayAlready-cleared drivewayLevel terrainPeaceful atmosphereDock already in placePaved access nearby
    This serene 3.54-acre parcel in the heart of Merritt offers the kind of quiet beauty and natural privacy that inspires dreamers whether you imagine a cozy home where mornings begin with birdsong and gentle breezes from the creek. With a dock already in place and a peaceful atmosphere surrounding you, this land feels like a private sanctuary where you can build the lifestyle you've long envisioned. It's the perfect setting for those seeking space, solitude, and a deep connection to nature. Located within the Bell Point community, this expansive tract offers community water and electric at the road, an already-cleared driveway, and an expired septic permit on file with the county. The land's level terrain opens up multiple build possibilities, and while homes nearby are often elevated due to the coastal environment, the seller reports that only a small portion of the land appears to be wet far from the majority. With paved access nearby, a low-key HOA of about 240/year, and a 1,400 sq ft minimum build size, the property sits just a short drive from both Oriental and New Bern, giving you easy access to boating, dining, and charming coastal amenities while still feeling wonderfully tucked away. If you've been dreaming of land ownership, of a place to spread out, build at your own pace, and create something lasting, this property is your invitation. Reach out today and let's explore how this beautiful slice of Merritt can become the foundation for your next chapter.
