Backyard Goals? Achieved. But That's Just the Beginning.

If your dream home includes a backyard that feels like your own private resort, then 106 Francis Marion Dr. is calling your name -- loudly. This home has THE backyard to enjoy all the seasons outdoors. Summers in North Carolina require two things, water and shade, and this home has both in abundance. Three years ago, it got a serious glow-up, featuring a gorgeous inground pool for cooling off during those hot summer days along with a connected hot tub, with spillover waterfalls, for the cooler evenings / months -- so your enjoyment of the water doesn't stop just because the seasons change. The polar plunge in winter is also quite invigorating.

Kick back by the outdoor gas firepit and soak in the ambiance, all while enjoying the expansive patio that makes entertaining effortless. For those moments when you just want to relax in the shade, the massive screened-in porch has you covered -- literally. With two large ceiling fans keeping the breeze just right, it's the perfect spot to sip your coffee in the morning or wind down with a glass of wine at night.

And the cherry on top? On quiet mornings and evenings, as you unwind in your own personal paradise, relax to the waves from the nearby ocean and Rich's Inlet. Coastal living just doesn't get much better than this.

Inside, the charm continues. Hardwood floors, beautifully accented by wainscoting, are featured throughout the downstairs, setting the stage for timeless elegance. The tray ceiling and dental molding in the foyer invite you into the formal dining room and living room, featuring custom built-ins surrounding a dual-sided gas-log fireplace -- because why have just one cozy space when you can have two, right? An 18' vaulted ceiling with two skylights and two sliding glass doors to the back porch ensure that natural light is never in short supply. An office (or another bedroom), with custom built-ins and sitting bench (with storage)
