Property Description
This custom Insulated Concrete Form (ICF) home incorporates more than 50 years of building experience, advanced house science, green building standards, and high-wind zone engineering. Known as a ''Hurricane Smart'' home, it offers an exceptional combination of durability, energy efficiency, comfort, and peace of mind rarely found in today's market.
Designed specifically for the Carolina coast, the home features reinforced concrete walls with 5/8-inch rebar, a reinforced 24'' x 12'' footing, solid-poured CMU foundation, continuous air barrier from footing to ridge line, impact-rated Simonton Storm Breaker windows and doors, hurricane-rated hip roof design, metal roof straps, threaded rod connections embedded in concrete, peel-and-stick roof protection, and a new wind-resistant roof installed in 2025. The entire roof system is reinforced with 3 inches of closed-cell spray foam insulation, increasing structural strength while dramatically reducing energy costs. Utility expenses are estimated at approximately $3 per day or less.
Inside, the floor plan blends comfort, efficiency, and craftsmanship. The expansive 40' x 17' living and dining area serves as the heart of the home and showcases hardwood flooring, ceramic tile, and a striking double-sided fireplace connecting the living room and kitchen. Designed for both entertaining and everyday living, the kitchen features rich cherry cabinetry, granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, and an oversized butcher block island that creates a natural gathering space for family and guests.
Adjacent to the main living area, the rustic Carolina Room offers a warm and inviting retreat with access to the rear deck overlooking a vernal pool and seasonal views of the Little Shallotte River. Large impact-rated windows fill the home with natural light while maintaining exceptional storm protection and energy performance.
The spacious primary suite features dual walk-in closets and a spa-inspired bath complete with a European-style walk-in shower and unique double vanity. The guest bathroom includes a contemporary wall-mounted glass vanity and a large whirlpool tub. Upstairs, flexible living space with a movable sliding wall can easily serve as guest accommodations, office space, hobby room, or additional living area. Additional conditioned attic storage provides practical space rarely found in comparable homes.
Energy-efficient features are integrated throughout, including passive solar design, variable-speed heat pumps with humidity sensors, fresh-air HVAC controls, Energy Star appliances and lighting, impact-rated windows with a U-value of .28, a Rinnai tankless water heater, insulated garage door, sealed crawl space with dehumidifier, and durable HardiePlank trim and cementitious stucco exterior finishes. The solid concrete construction also creates a natural sound barrier, resulting in a remarkably quiet interior environment.
The outdoor setting is impressive. Mature live oaks, native landscaping, and wooded surroundings create a private sanctuary recognized with the highest Audubon landscaping award. A dedicated potting area with a vintage soapstone sink, outdoor shower, French drain system, convenient garage water shutoff valve, with storage beneath the Carolina Room.
Situated on a premium corner lot, significantly enhancing privacy and open space. The backyard offers a peaceful natural retreat where native vegetation, birds, and wildlife create a tranquil backdrop.
Residents enjoy access to outstanding community amenities, including a resort-style swimming pool, clubhouse, Intracoastal Waterway boat ramp, kayak launch, tennis courts, and pickleball courts. Combining superior construction, low-maintenance living, energy efficiency, and access to the coastal lifestyle. Built to be Your Forever Home. Call Us for a Showing !
