Southern Cross is now being offered with a second purchase option, approximately 12± acres along Hadnot Creek in Carteret County, with survey currently in process. Priced at $1,790,000, this newly configured offering provides substantial acreage, two residences, waterfront access, and extensive supporting improvements while giving buyers an alternative to purchasing the full 22-acre parcel. The property is unzoned, with no deed restrictions and no HOA, offering unusual flexibility for those seeking room for horses, gardening, recreation, equipment, additional outbuildings, or other future uses, subject to applicable Carteret County approvals. The setting combines wooded acreage, gently rolling terrain, tidal creek frontage, and long marsh views that give the property a true sense of privacy without feeling remote. The custom 3-bedroom, 2.5-bath main residence was built in 2010 in a low-country style using ICF construction, a building method valued for strength, energy efficiency, and wind resistance. The home offers more than 2,500 heated square feet above approximately 1,480 square feet of heated and cooled garage space. A Kohler whole-house generator, dual heat system, and engineered double-footer construction add to the home's substantial infrastructure. Wide covered porches wrap the residence and extend the living space outdoors. Inside, Brazilian cherry flooring, a soaring two-story stone fireplace, custom kitchen with copper sinks and a 36-inch gas range, primary suite with direct rear porch access, and a library or office with its own half bath create a home that feels distinctive, comfortable, and well suited to the property around it. A separate carriage house adds even more versatility. The 1-bedroom, 1.5-bath residence sits above a three-car garage and includes a full kitchen, loft-style great room, full bath, bamboo and tile flooring, skylights, and a cupola that brings natural light into the space. It works equally well as guest quarters, a multigenerational living arrangement, private office or studio, or potential rental use. Additional improvements include a 24 x 50 metal utility building with five garage doors, swimming pool with pool house studio, chicken coop, tool shed, greenhouse, and an RV and boat parking pad with electric service. At the water's edge, a private pier on Hadnot Creek includes a boat lift, kayak rack, electricity, and water. Launch a kayak from the backyard, spend an afternoon fishing from the dock, or simply watch the marsh wildlife from home. Hadnot Creek connects directly with the White Oak River, opening the door to miles of coastal water and exploration. Historic Swansboro, Cape Carteret, and Cedar Point are only minutes away, with Emerald Isle beaches approximately 15 minutes across the bridge. Southern Cross offers the kind of space and privacy that can be increasingly difficult to find this close to the Crystal Coast. The existing four-bedroom septic system serves both residences. Pool and pool house are unpermitted structures. Acreage is approximate and subject to final survey. Buyers should independently verify acreage, permitting, septic, zoning, intended uses, and all applicable requirements with Carteret County prior to purchase. *Full 22 acre estate offered at $2,190,000 (see MLS 100573587).

Third row to the ocean on Gregg Street, 102 Gregg Street offers what buyers search hardest for on Emerald Isle: real ocean views, a short walk to beach access, and a proven track record as a producing vacation rental. I've watched this stretch of the island hold its value through every cycle over 38 years, and a property like this shows why. Three bedrooms, two full baths, and a half bath make up the confirmed layout, with septic permitting a 3-bedroom single-family use. Two additional flexible rooms give you space for an office, den, game room, or overflow living that doesn't count against the bedroom total. 2,042 heated square feet sits on a 75' x 113' lot, with wraparound decks built for sunrise and sunset views in every season. Inside, tile runs throughout with heated flooring in key areas, and dimmable LED recessed lighting carries through every room. A high-end Mitsubishi mini-split HVAC system lets you set custom temperatures room by room, controlled onsite or remotely, with consistency across every level. The Ikea kitchen offers serious storage with lighted, soft-close cabinets and drawers, quartz countertops, stainless steel appliances, a glass cooktop with hood, and a farmhouse sink with touchless faucet and reverse osmosis filtration. Both full bathrooms feature lighted antifog mirrors, glass-enclosed showers, and rain showerheads. The primary bedroom includes an adjustable bed and lighted Ikea his-and-hers closets with soft-close doors and drawers. This home is built for the coast. Ice and rain barrier on the roof, spray foam insulation in the walls and attic, DP-55 windows and sliding doors, and Bahama shutters add both storm protection and style. The water heater has a decalcifier installed. Yale smart locks secure all exterior doors and locked closets, controllable locally or remotely, and a Ring camera covers the property. Step outside to a private oasis: a pergola with seating surrounded by louvered walls for privacy, two outdoor showers, and a 13' swim spa heated for year-round use. A climate-controlled workshop and a separate shed round out the exterior, giving you real storage and workspace most island properties don't offer. The home is being sold fully furnished, with a few exclusions, and is ready for immediate occupancy. Currently operating as Bluewater Vacation Rentals' ''Emerald Isle Lookout,'' it has produced verified gross rental income of $49,048 in 2026, $49,557 in 2025, $44,273 in 2024, and $63,894 in 2023, giving buyers real performance history rather than a projection. Under the North Carolina Vacation Rental Act, confirmed reservations falling within 180 days of settlement convey to the buyer, so a new owner steps into existing bookings rather than starting the rental calendar from zero. It's all about location when it comes to owning at Emerald Isle. This highly elevated 3rd row lot sits in an X Flood Zone so no flood insurance is required (optional by owner).
