About this home

Welcome to life overlooking the first tee at Rivers Edge. Tucked inside one of Brunswick County's premier gated golf communities, this rare, one-owner residence at 491 River Bluff Drive #3 offers front-row views of the iconic Rivers Edge Golf Course and a layout designed to live beautifully across every level. This three-story home features an open-concept kitchen and living area anchored by granite countertops, a large island, and seamless flow for everyday living or entertaining. Every level offers direct outdoor access—whether it's a private patio or balcony, creating multiple spaces to step outside and take in the coastal breeze and fairway views. The main living balcony overlooks the first tee and fairway, an ideal setting for morning coffee or winding down at sunset. Inside, the home has been meticulously maintained by its original owner and thoughtfully updated, including 29 new windows installed in 2025, a new roof, a new refrigerator and garbage disposal (2023), dishwasher (2024), and microwave (2025), offering true peace of mind for the next owner. Located minutes from Holden Beach, dining, shopping, and the River Hall clubhouse, Rivers Edge is known for its championship golf, riverfront amenities, and resort-style living. Homes with this level of care, setting, and golf course positioning rarely become available. This is a unique opportunity to own a beautifully maintained residence in one of the area's most sought-after coastal communities.
