Property Description
Orchard Creek Estates on Peninsula Drive is a quiet, safe community with 29 lots—16 full-time residents, 6 part-time, and 7 unbuilt. The peninsula is surrounded by Orchard Creek, which meets Bright and Pasture Creeks before flowing into the 5-mile-wide Neuse River. The area is known for fishing, with trout, drum, flounder, shrimp, and even dolphins frequenting the waters. Utilities are underground, including Brightspeed fiber and Spectrum cable.
The .8-acre lot sits 4-6 feet above mean high water, with an additional .1-acre septic drain field. Natural wetlands provide privacy and erosion control. The home's elevated foundation protects against flooding (survived hurricanes without water intrusion). A 100-ft concrete dock features a double-wide section with tie-up pilings, 30-amp power, water, and Wi-Fi. New granite block riprap was installed in 2023. A buried 250-gallon propane tank supports the home. The septic system is state-inspected biannually.The oversized (25' x 28') two-car garage includes storage, a sealed floor, and truss-supported ceiling (no pillars). It houses a 2025 water heater, a Kinetico water filtration system, electrical panels (generator-ready), and a centralized TV/ethernet panel. A hot water recirculation system ensures instant hot water.The mudroom (Opus Ivory tile) connects to the pantry, powder room, and kitchen. The open-concept kitchen features GE Profile SS appliances, granite countertops, two sinks, and Moen brushed nickel fixtures. The great room has oak floors, a gas fireplace, and water-facing windows. A covered porch leads to two decks—one for grilling and another screened-in.The upstairs includes two 11' x 15' bedrooms, a full bath, and attic access. The master suite has a dressing area, walk-in closet, and a luxurious bath with a Roman-style shower, Jacuzzi, and quartz vanity. The master bedroom opens to a second screened porch, wired for a hot tub, with outdoor shower access.
