What's special

Tucked beneath a canopy of mature coastal landscaping on a corner lot, 11 Shell Court offers a setting that feels private, established, and distinctly different from the typical island home. Thoughtful outdoor living spaces surround the property, beginning with a welcoming screened porch finished with a warm tongue-and-groove ceiling and dual ceiling fans--an inviting place to settle in after a day at the beach. Inside, the home opens into a bright, airy living space where a vaulted ceiling creates an immediate sense of volume. Laminate flooring carries throughout the main living areas, complemented by Craftsman-inspired trim and floating display shelves. The open layout allows the living room to flow naturally into the dining area, where a chandelier defines the space while maintaining an easy connection to the kitchen. The kitchen combines coastal character with practical updates, featuring quartz countertops, 42-inch cabinetry, soft-close drawers, recessed lighting, and wide-plank shiplap accents. A 64-inch peninsula provides casual bar seating and additional workspace, while a five-burner flat-top range and dual-basin stainless steel sink complete the space. Just beyond the kitchen, a glass-paneled exterior door opens to an elevated deck, creating an easy extension for grilling, entertaining, or simply enjoying the surrounding greenery. Privately positioned on the main level, the primary suite offers the convenience of first-floor living along with a ceiling fan and an updated private bath. The bath pairs a granite-topped vanity with floating shelves and a beautifully tiled walk-in shower with a glass enclosure. Upstairs, two additional bedrooms are connected by a Jack-and-Jill bathroom, creating a functional and private arrangement for family or guests. The updated bath features a tub-and-shower combination, completing a thoughtfully designed upper level. Back outside, mature palms, flowering trees, and established landscaping create a surprisingly private setting around the home. The ground level adds even more versatility with a heated and cooled bonus space ready for game days, movie nights, hobbies, or an easy place to unwind after the beach. Covered parking with dual access, ground-level storage, board-and-batten detailing, and a hot-and-cold outdoor shower add to the home's everyday functionality. Best of all, 11 Shell Court is conveniently positioned between two beach accesses, making it easy to trade the car for a walk to the sand. Located within the established Pleasant Cove community, this thoughtfully maintained home brings together comfortable indoor living, inviting outdoor spaces, and the laid-back coastal lifestyle that makes Surf City such a special place to call home
