Welcome to 139 Clam Shell Trail in Southern Shores, a thoughtfully designed 4-bedroom, 3.5-bath home offering approximately 2,000 square feet of living space. Built in 1995 and lovingly maintained by its original owners, this property combines comfort, quality, and a fantastic location. The unique two-story layout provides easy access on the ground level with a carport entry, laundry room, two bedrooms, and a full bath. Upstairs, the main living area features soaring vaulted ceilings, abundant natural light, and an open concept design that connects the kitchen, dining, and living spaces seamlessly. The kitchen is beautifully appointed with granite countertops, a tile backsplash, and stainless steel appliances. Also on this level are two spacious primary suites, each with private ensuite baths, creating an ideal setup for family or guests. Set on a well-elevated 22,000 square foot lot in an X flood zone, the outdoor spaces are just as impressive. Expansive decks and porches invite you to enjoy the coastal lifestyle, from the oversized front porch perfect for soaking up the sun or morning coffee, to the back porch overlooking a fenced yard with hot tub, pergola, and ample seating for entertaining. Beach access couldn’t be better—just steps across the street, a walking path leads directly to the shoreline, where Southern Shores’ beaches offer a quieter, more relaxed setting. From here, you can bike to local favorites like Steamers, Shore Coffee, and Southern Shores Pizza, or take a short drive to nearby Duck for shopping, dining, and entertainment. Residents also enjoy optional membership opportunities with Chicahauk Property Owners Association and Southern Shores Civic Association, which provide access to additional community amenities year-round. Whether you’re seeking a second home, year-round residence, or investment property, this coastal retreat checks all the boxes.
