Refreshed coastal cabin on 3.12 wooded acres—full of charm, upgrades, and true move-in readiness! Just minutes from the Manteo waterfront, this thoughtfully updated retreat blends comfort, character, and modern convenience. Step inside to a bright, welcoming interior featuring natural hickory all-wood cabinetry with soft-close drawers, under-cabinet lighting, and granite countertops. The upgraded kitchen includes two refrigerators—a full-size side-by-side plus a compact unit—along with a new stove, microwave, and durable plank flooring. Major systems have been taken care of, too: a new 40-gallon water heater and HVAC (2023) ensure year-round comfort. The remodeled bathroom feels fresh and functional with a walk-in shower, solid wood vanity with granite top, and recessed medicine cabinet. Additional updates include new flooring throughout, fresh interior paint, vinyl tilt-in windows, vinyl siding, heavy-duty storm doors, a new septic system (2017), and upgraded 200-amp electrical service with underground power. A brand-new roof (2025) and exterior repaint add even more value. Survey completed in 2025. Outside, enjoy the privacy of 3.12 wooded acres while still being close to everything that makes Manteo special. Explore the charming downtown filled with local shops, art galleries, cozy cafés, and scenic waterfront walks. Known for its rich history and laid-back coastal lifestyle, Manteo offers the perfect blend of small-town warmth and Outer Banks adventure. Whether you're seeking a peaceful primary home, a weekend getaway, or a turn-key short-term rental, this lovingly updated coastal cabin is a rare find in the OBX. Call today!
