About this home
Set four blocks off the sand, this 2020 coastal home comes move-in ready! Offering three bedrooms, three and a half baths, and 2,177 square feet. This is a rare pool-ready lot: a 53-foot-deep rear yard spanning the full width, zoned R-3 where private pools are permitted. Roughly 2,388 square feet of impervious allowance remains and there's no HOA - buyer to verify with the Town of Carolina Beach. This home comes equipped with cement board siding, a metal roof with copper accents, and waterproof Pergo laminate flooring. The main level lives large and open, anchored by a generous island, quartz counters, and a covered deck right off the living area. Also on this floor is a private guest suite - handy for out-of-towners or a home office. Head upstairs and the owner's suite earns its keep with another private balcony, a floor to ceiling tiled walk-in shower, and dual closets, while a second ensuite bedroom means overnight guests get their own space and privacy. Beach life needs storage, and the enclosed garage delivers - room for boards, bikes, coolers, and a workbench. Round that out with an outdoor shower to rinse off after a swim, an irrigation system, plenty of parking, and an owned whole-house Aquasana water filtration system. Just beyond the front door: the lake, the Greenway Trail, Carolina Beach State Park, the boardwalk, and local favorites like the Fat Pelican and Surf House. Full-time residence, weekend getaway, or rental investment - 400 Sumter has the room, the flexibility, and the location to make it work. 1-year, 2-10 Home Warranty available for purchase at closing! Items available on request include rent projections, pool allowances and specifications with an A.I. rendered image, 2020 survey, and a full facts and features sheet.
