258 Dogwood Trail N Lot #16, Southern Shores

Experience an incomparable coastal sanctuary at 258 N Dogwood Trail — a rare, elevated canal-front estate sited on an expansive 1.02-acre homesite in prestigious Southern Shores. From the moment you turn down the tree-lined road and pass beneath a cathedral of mature pines, you feel a private, almost peaceful hush. This property is extraordinarily rare in scale and setting on North Dogwood: you must walk the grounds to appreciate the deep, park-like yard that stretches from the rear porches to your own navigable canal frontage, offering direct access to the Currituck Sound for boating, kayaking, paddleboarding and unforgettable sunsets The combination of elevation, privacy and water frontage creates sweeping sightlines and breezy, sun-filled living spaces that embody the best of Outer Banks life. Thoughtfully designed and custom-built with refined coastal materials, the home artfully balances elegant finishes with relaxed, family-friendly function. A dramatic wall of windows in the great room frames panoramic views of water and trees, flooding the interior with light, while a custom reclaimed mantle brings warmth and heritage to the living space. The chef’s kitchen is appointed for both everyday living and entertaining — quartz counters, a refined subway backsplash, soft-close custom cabinetry by Harmony Cabinet Shop, engineered hardwood floors, and a convenient butler’s pantry with laundry access, making single-level living effortless on the main level. French doors and multiple covered porches extend the indoor rooms into screened and open outdoor living areas, creating a seamless flow for alfresco dining, quiet mornings with coffee, or evenings watching the wildlife. The primary suite on the main level is a gracious retreat with a generous walk-in closet, a spa-style bath with a soaking tub and custom tile shower, a water closet, and private deck access, so you can step outside to the quiet nature-preserve feel. Upstairs, two additional bedrooms and a cozy sitting area overlook the great room, providing a private second-floor wing for guests or family. The ground level broadens the home’s versatility with two more bedrooms, a full bath, an expansive den/media room with exterior access — ideal for a potential pool entrance, rental configuration, or a private suite for visiting family — plus abundant storage and garage space for vehicles and water toys. Every practical detail has been resolved with thoughtful, low-maintenance solutions: LP® SmartSide® siding, Andersen Windows, an irrigation system to keep the grounds lush, a three-zone heat pump for year-round comfort, multiple garages and plentiful storage. Outdoor amenities are set up for coastal living — a covered patio perfect for a hot tub, an outdoor shower to rinse off after beach or boat days, and easy water access for launching paddlecraft straight from your yard. Located minutes from Duck and Kitty Hawk, and within the optional Southern Shores Civic Association (approx. $100/year) that provides marina access, boat launch, sound-front parks, tennis, and 30+ private ocean beach accesses, this property pairs tranquil privacy with an enviable community lifestyle.
