About this home
Welcome to your private retreat in the heart of Foy Plantation, located in the highly sought-after Scotts Hill area and within the desirable Topsail school district.
Nestled in a sweet, quiet neighborhood lined with mature trees, this beautifully updated 3-bedroom, 2.5-bath farmhouse-style home offers 2,587 square feet of thoughtfully designed living space on a large, private lot. A long driveway provides added privacy and a welcoming approach to the home, creating a peaceful setting that feels tucked away while still being close to everything the area has to offer. Enjoy close proximity to Sailfish Restaurant, Scotts Hill Marina, and the scenic Intracoastal Waterway, placing boating, waterfront dining, and sunset views just moments from your doorstep. You are also within walking distance of the beautiful trails at Abbey Nature Preserve Trail at Poplar Grove, perfect for morning walks, runs, or simply enjoying nature.
Inside, the home has been updated and meticulously maintained. Hardwood bamboo flooring flows throughout the main living areas, creating warmth and continuity, while the kitchen shines with quartz countertops and new tile flooring that offer both style and function. A spacious pantry provides everyday convenience, and the updated half bath downstairs offers a polished touch for guests. A flex room sits off the living area with roller doors to open or close the space. A charming built-in dog home tucked under the stairs adds a thoughtful and unique touch for pet lovers. No pet? No problem! This space can turn into the perfect book nook for little readers! A reverse osmosis water filtration system has also been installed in the kitchen and both full bathrooms, providing clean, high-quality water throughout key areas of the home. These systems are serviced at no cost by Kinetico.
Upstairs, the expansive primary suite serves as a peaceful retreat, featuring a walk-in closet and a spa-inspired bathroom complete with a beautifully tiled walk-in shower and a soaking tub designed for relaxation after a long day. Two additional bedrooms are also located upstairs and share a charming Jack-and-Jill bathroom, ideal for family or guests.
The outdoor spaces truly set this property apart. Designed for entertaining and everyday enjoyment, the backyard oasis features an in-ground saltwater pool and a tiki hut that makes every day feel like a vacation. A wraparound porch and grilling patio create seamless indoor-outdoor living, while the detached two-car garage adds both function and flexibility. New pool motor installed in 2025 to give you peace of mind and newly paved neighborhood roads completed in 2024 to give ample smooth surfaces for kids to enjoy all their outdoor activities.
With its incredible outdoor living space, long private driveway, and prime location in one of the area's most sought-after communities and school zones, this 2,587-square-foot home offers more than just a place to live -- it offers a lifestyle.
