307 Anita Forte Drive, Cape Carteret

Welcome home to this beautifully reimagined coastal ranch where thoughtful updates meet an unbeatable location. Originally built in 1961 and completely transformed in 2018-2019, this 3-bedroom, 2-bath home was designed for easy living and relaxed gatherings. The stunning sunroom has engineered heart pine floors and is filled with natural light giving it a sense of openness with the cathedral ceiling and all the windows. It quickly becomes a favorite space—perfect for morning coffee, quiet reading, or entertaining friends. The primary bedroom is a true retreat, featuring a separate office, generous walk-in closet and a spa-inspired oversized shower with built-in bench. Every detail has been carefully updated, including new windows, Hardiplank siding, HVAC, septic system, and modern light fixtures throughout. A functional laundry and mud room adds everyday convenience. Set in one of the area's most sought-after locations, this home is just blocks away from the bridge to Emerald Isle beaches and only six houses from a waterfront picnic area and pier overlooking the Intracoastal Waterway—ideal for sunsets, fishing, and evening strolls. With shopping, the elementary school, and two nearby boat ramps (available for a small annual fee) just blocks away, this home offers the perfect blend of comfort, coastal living, and community.
