## Description

### Agent Description
Welcome to 237 Garbacon Drive-an exceptional 3.6-acre waterfront property located in the private, gated community of Merrimon Bay, just outside Beaufort, NC. This spacious homesite offers stunning views of the Neuse River and is the perfect canvas for your dream coastal getaway. With over 100 feet of shoreline, you'll enjoy the sights and sounds of the water every day, whether you're watching dolphins from your porch or casting a line from your future private dock. Merrimon Bay is tucked away in the unspoiled beauty of Carteret County, offering a quiet, natural setting filled with deer, turkey, and local birdlife. The neighborhood features a community boat ramp and dock, giving you quick access to boating, fishing, and exploring the nearby barrier islands, including Cape Lookout and Shackleford Banks. It's the ideal launch point for weekend adventures on the water. Despite the peaceful, rural feel, you're only 25 miles from the vibrant NC Crystal Coast towns of Beaufort, Morehead City, and Atlantic Beach. That means easy access to shopping, restaurants, marinas, and sandy beaches-all within a short drive. As an added bonus, 239 Garbacon, immediately to the right of this property is also for sale. This creates an excellent opportunity for buyers seeking a larger homesite to own almost 7 acres of riverfront heaven at a very reasonable price. Creating great value for for those looking to build or invest. Whether you're planning to build a full-time home or a weekend retreat, 237 Garbacon Drive offers privacy, space, and incredible waterfront views in one of North Carolina's hidden gems. Don't miss the chance to own a piece of this coastal paradise.
