Welcome to your ultimate Eastern North Carolina sportsman's retreat--approximately 20± acres of prime waterfront property in Pamlico County. Tucked away over 2,200 feet down a private drive off the paved road, this secluded haven offers unmatched privacy and a true escape into nature.
Designed with the outdoor enthusiast in mind, this property is a hunter's and fisherman's dream. Boasting roughly 2,300 feet of water frontage along Riggs Creek and Morris Creek, you'll enjoy direct access to excellent fishing waters and one of the area's most sought-after duck hunting locations. The expansive shoreline provides ample opportunity for multiple duck blinds in a proven, high-traffic flyway.
A beautiful dock is already in place, complete with a 15,000 lb boat lift, deep water access at the end, and plenty of space to accommodate multiple boats. There's even a small boat launch area on-site, making it effortless to get out on the water whenever you choose.
The lodge offers 1,383 square feet of comfortable living space, featuring 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. Enjoy breathtaking panoramic views of the Bay River from both the rooftop and front porch--where you can truly see for miles across the water. The home also includes covered parking underneath, adding convenience and functionality.
Additional improvements include two utility buildings ideal for storing ATVs, UTVs, boats, and gear, along with a large equipment shelter. The land itself is rich with wildlife, offering opportunities to hunt deer, turkey, and even bear right from your own property.
Whether you're casting a line, setting decoys, or simply relaxing by the water, this one-of-a-kind waterfront lodge delivers the perfect combination of recreation, comfort, and seclusion. A rare opportunity to own a true outdoor paradise in one of North Carolina's most desirable coastal regions.
