Merritt, NC 28556 35 Bayview Drive

Do the math then do it again. At approximately $147 per square foot, this 3,248 sq ft home on 3.12 acres is priced like the market made a mistake. It didn't. This is simply one of the best value opportunities in coastal Pamlico County. Welcome to 35 Bayview Drive, where stick-built construction meets rare flexibility. This 3-bedroom, 3.5-bath home offers the kind of space, flow, and freedom buyers struggle to find and even harder to afford this close to the water. Enjoy a deeded 32-foot boat slip just moments away, giving you full access to boating and the Pamlico Sound without paying waterfront prices. Inside, the oversized primary suite features dual ensuites and a pass-through walk-in closet, while the upstairs loft creates the perfect home office, guest area, or media space. A screened porch, deck, and covered outdoor areas make entertaining or relaxing easy year-round. The detached two-car garage with workshop and upstairs flex space is a dream setup for hobbyists, small-business owners, boaters, or anyone who needs room to create, build, or store equipment. Add in a 3.12-acre corner lot, no HOA, and no city limits, and you get true coastal freedom. At $479,000, this is not just a home it's an opportunity. Properties with this much land, this much square footage, and water access simply do not come around at this price. Minutes from Oriental. Moments from the Pamlico Sound. Priced for the buyer who knows a smart move when they see one. Schedule your showing before someone else does the math.
