Welcome to this charming, well-maintained 1960s brick ranch conveniently located near all that Jacksonville has to offer. Recent updates in 2025 include a new roof, electrical panel, laundry room door; tree removal, and Termite Bond extending through 2027. From the moment you walk through the front door into the spacious primary living area, you are greeted by the natural light from the picture window, the neutral, relaxing paint color, the updated lighting fixtures, and the natural hardwood floors that extend throughout. From there, this three bedroom, one bathroom home opens nicely into the combination kitchen/dining room ready for you to cook and enjoy delicious meals for family and friends for years to come. The eat-in kitchen with plentiful cabinetry offers direct access to the rear covered patio and fully fenced-in yard with entry points between the front and back yards. Extending your indoor living outdoors allows you to enjoy this space year round while also offering a private, secure place for kids and pets to safely play. Additionally, your new home offers a large wired outbuilding with shelving for additional storage and a roll-up garage door for lawn equipment, gardening tools, and more. The spacious primary bedroom directly connects to the full bathroom for easy access and convenience separate from the entry used by the two secondary bedrooms. This home is an ideal opportunity as a first-time purchase, an investment rental, or the chance to downsize with peace of mind. Finally, with its proximity to Camp Lejeune, as well as Swansboro and the Crystal Coast beaches of Emerald Isle, this home provides the ideal blend of work, convenience, and leisure.
