NEW KITCHEN. FRESH NEW LOOK. COASTAL FARMHOUSE LIVING NEAR HOLDEN BEACH. Welcome to 3370 Oyster Bed Road, an all-brick home offering approximately 3,700 square feet, a three-car garage and nearly 1.5 wooded acres in Oyster Harbour--one of the area's most desirable gated coastal communities. Inside, nearly everything feels generously sized, including the 24' x 20' living room, 21' x 14' primary bedroom and impressive 24' x 16' study. The newly updated kitchen features freshly finished alabaster cabinetry, quartz countertops, new hardwood flooring, new hardware, updated fixtures and a KitchenAid five-burner gas cooktop. Freshly painted interior trim adds to the home's bright, modern coastal-farmhouse style. A distinctive herringbone hardwood pattern welcomes you at the entry and creates an eye-catching transition between the kitchen and living areas. The kitchen's transformation is so impressive that even Courteney Cox might approve--and she has seen a few good remodels. Working from home? The oversized study features a 16-foot built-in bookcase and plenty of room for a serious executive office, personal library or both. Whether you are managing a company or simply organizing the household calendar, this room makes you look official. Outdoor living is equally impressive. A 58-foot covered front porch stretches across the home, while the expansive rear porch features vinyl windows and a mini-split HVAC system for comfortable extended-season enjoyment. The wooded backyard offers exceptional privacy and plenty of room to explore the possibility of adding a private pool, subject to applicable approvals and permitting. A stone-inlay firepit area accommodates six or more Adirondack chairs and creates the perfect setting for afternoon refreshments, cool evenings and good conversation. The listing agent has personally tested this feature and can confirm that laughter travels well around a wood fire. Upstairs, you will find a spacious 22' x 18' bedroom, full bathroom and flexible bonus room that could become a media room, game room, craft studio, quilting room or private guest retreat. The three-bay garage provides room for vehicles, hobbies and storage. The 30' x 15' third bay is currently arranged as a workshop with wall-to-wall wooden shelving. The shelving may be removed to accommodate another full-size vehicle, motorcycles or a small boat. Oyster Harbour amenities include a clubhouse, outdoor pool, fitness center, tennis and pickleball courts, walking trails, kayak launches and a community waterfront park. Boaters will appreciate the private Intracoastal Waterway boat ramp and convenient day docks. Two kayak launch areas on the Shallotte River are also within an easy stroll of the property. Located less than 10 minutes from Holden Beach, this home combines privacy, space and coastal amenities--with enough garage room for the toys you promised yourself you would buy after moving to the beach.
