Introducing 197 Wax Myrtle Trail, a beautiful and meticulously maintained home in the heart of Southern Shores offering the rare convenience of single-level living on the Outer Banks. This impressive retreat features 3 bedrooms and 2.5 bathrooms within over 2,000 sq ft of heated living space. Situated on a spacious, secluded, and elevated lot surrounded by lush vegetation, it provides an array of amenities perfect for full-time residents, second homeowners, or those seeking a fantastic vacation rental investment. Built in 2020, the home boasts white cedar shake siding, PVC trim, smartside soffits, and a 30-year architectural shingle roof, truly turnkey and ready for its new owners to enjoy the summer season. Inside, you'll find an inviting open-concept living area filled with natural light that seamlessly connects the living, dining, and kitchen. The tasteful coastal design is enhanced by engineered French Oak hardwood floors, shiplap accents, and shaker-style cabinetry throughout. The living room offers comfortable seating, a gas fireplace, a surround sound system, and easy access to the screened porch. Imagine relaxing in the shade, enjoying the ocean breeze while surrounded by live oaks, or stepping out to the private pool for some sun. The custom kitchen is well-appointed with white shaker-style cabinetry featuring soft-close doors and drawers, quartz countertops, upgraded stainless steel GE appliances (including a hood vent, built-in microwave, and gas range/oven), under-cabinet lighting, and ample storage. The spacious primary en suite, located on the west wing for added privacy, includes his and her (walk-in) closets and a large bathroom with a double vanity, heated floors, and a zero-entry shower with both rain head and handheld features. Two additional bedrooms share a full bathroom which also features heated floors and double vanity undermount sinks with white shaker-style cabinetry, and quartz countertops. A conveniently located half bath, abundant interior and exterior storage, and a full laundry room with a sink and storage are situated on the east side of the home. Enjoy the ease of the attached garage, outdoor showers at both the front and rear of the property, a home irrigation system to maintain the beautiful landscaping, and direct beach access via pedestrian crosswalks with community parking available to the north and south. This home provides excellent access to the stunning coastline to the east, soundside access to the west, and is just a short walk or bike ride to the charming town of Duck.
